Clavi Twin '78 captures the heart & soul of a vintage run-down Hohner Clavinet Pianet Duo, complete with scuffs, stains, and over 40 years of hard use and abuse. This unique combo allowed keyboardists to blend the two instruments, or use the Pianet as a bass in the left hand while playing Clavi in the right. Since both sets of strings lived inside the enclosure, this funkmaster was heavy (over 75 lbs)! The Clavinet was designed in 1961 by German engineer Ernst Zacharias - he loved listening to Bach harpsichord music and created an amplified version for Hohner. Music legends like Stevie Wonder made the Clavinet an icon, embracing the electric guitar-like tones while running it through distortion, tape echo, and phaser pedals.
Soundiron sampled all 60 keys with 4 velocity layers and 4 round robin per note, then recorded key up and down SFX so you can dial in the release volume and amount of key attack click. After that, Soundiron expanded these classic timbres with 20 ambient soundscapes and 20 custom FX presets to jumpstart your “Superstition” inspiration. Clavi Twin ‘78 fits happily in any genre from psychedelic rock to experimental classical, and it guarantees your next cue to be deliciously funky.
