Description:
The Purgatory Creek Soundware Clavinet Collection includes the two most sought-after versions of the clavinet keyboard. Each captures the authentic sound of original instruments in great detail.
The collection includes all of the instruments shown below:
– Clavinet D6
– Clavinet C
The layout of the Kontakt instruments is similar. You will find emulation of the original instruments’ pickup and filter tabs, volume for the release and attack samples, and a two-band EQ. In addition, each has controls for the wah-wah (MIDI CC#01 controlled by default), saturation and reverb effects. Finally, a number of amp simulations are provided.
In all, you have two deeply sampled clavinets in a single collection at a very reasonable price.
Requires FULL version of Kontakt – will only run in demo mode in the Player.

The Clavinet C was made famous by Stevie Wonder’s recording of Superstition and was the predecessor to the more common D6 and E7.
Each of the four pickups for both the C was sampled at a minimum of eight velocity levels for full duration, providing an accurate sound with no artificial decay envelopes or sample loops. Release samples and attack noise samples are also included.
