The venerable clavinet is no stranger to modern music, or more specifically, sampling. We at 8Dio have taken this iconic instrument and sampled it so thoroughly that it will never need to be sampled again. The Studio Clavinet is similar to a piano in appearance and performance, but its sound is more like a rich, powerful electric guitar. This is partly due to the size, placement, and length of the strings and bridge used, as well as the two separate pickups that can be used solo, combined, and inverted.
The Studio Clavinet was recorded in detail and mastered at 96kHz 24-bit quality at Scotland’s leading recording studio, Gorbals Sound, using a dedicated Neve desk, then downsampled to 48kHz for easy streaming. The sustain samples were recorded with all available pickup options and multiple speakers, allowing for incredible detail in the sound.
The Studio Clavinet also provides full control over velocity response, resonance and release triggers, pedal volume, analog noise control, and full ADSR control. From punchy leads to soft melodic lines, the Studio Clavinet really knows how to deliver the funk.
