This is mind blowingly good -- Stevie's original composition, Rachel's playing and the sound of the gear too.

Amazing perfprmance! But the sound is what really caught me. I can't believe I never thought of clavinet with a wah-wah effect
@TheScreamingFrog9167 ай бұрын
Not just a normal foot pedal Wah-Wah. This is actually the sound of a Mutron, an autofilter. It sweeps the wha sound, depending on how loud the incoming signal is. So it has a characteristic quacking sound, with each note. Jerry Garcia, of the Grateful Dead, was famous for his autofilter guitar leads. I never thought of this before either, and now am going to give it a try 🙂 🎶🌎☮

That's rhythm right there. The vast majority of people I've heard on keys don't have half the rhythm or dynamics as Rachel.

The keys on this model are reverse Colored exactally like alot of older Keyboard instruments including the Clavichord. The Clavinet is a solid body Electric Clavichord that plugs into an amp & it has pickups that amplify the string sound.

The Mutron III is an envelope follower/auto wah, also the gold standard in the flavor of effect too- really hard to beat it.. Mu3 is a Completely optical circuit thats very expressive- killer sounding units. Made by Musitronics back in the 1970's, they primarily made phasers, envelope followers, wahs, had an octave pedal too

Mutron? Do you see the silver and blue box about 18 inches from Rachel's left hand? (I'm talking about the box that sits on top of the walnut organ. It also has 3 black control knobs on it.) Well, that's a Mutron III. It is a sound effects processor made from 1972-1981 that was mainly used to create funky bass sounds. In addition to keyboards, you can also use it on bass guitars and electric guitars. It was first made by Musitronics (hence it's name Mu-tron) and later by ARP instruments. Production stopped around 1981 when ARP when bankrupt. The original inventer, Mike Beigel, is now making a new version of the Mutron III and it sounds excellent.

@@edcollins9377 I see. It's kind of like an envelope filter effect? Definitely sounds cool on a clavinet.

She's playing a Clavinet. I think that's a cheap organ on the other side of her. Nice Minimoog to her left.
