Hello,
you can use this http://www.kvr-vst.com/ to look around and find several vsti's & vst's. There are various search criteria to use i order to find plugins that suit your needs.

For e-piano / rhodes types of sounds i would reccommend that you try http://www.mda-vst.com/
which are free to download and use, their plugins are quite good, their quality is even compared to commercial plugins.

For simple plugins, when istalling them, you just place the file in the folder which is for vstplugins (you define this folder within cubase). For more complex plugins, there is an installation procedure, like all programs have and also place the file in the vstplugins folder, the mda plugins are simple to install.

i hope that helps

Hi,

Native Instruments have just released Electrik Piano which covers all the classic Electric Piano sounds i.e Rhodes, Clavinet and Wurlitzer...i think its sample based though, but should sound good if its from NI.

Maybe also worth checking is the Lounge Lizard, which doesnt use any samples. Its supposed to offer all the classic eletric piano sounds but can also be tuned to produce many other weird and wonderful sounds more like a synthesiser.

This may be worth checking also..
