Zero attack and zero release, that's where the funk is 😁👍

Best intro ever! "...he's the f%ckin' Maltese Falcon. And it's a f%ckin' Friday..." Solid Jack. Solid.

Genius but blind...Probably shouldn't have, but cracked me the heck up.

Definitely do another vid with some more advanced clay techniques!!! This is great! Loved when you went to the key of C for a bit

Thanks so much for the kind words Warren - will do! 🫡

Thank you sooo much for doing this video, Jack! 🙏🤘

Brilliant vid!!! Great on every level, as always great playing

Jack, I'm a guitarist and just starting to mess with synths and keyboards. And this really helped me to get started on clavs. Especially the tap the table bit! Great stuff! Keep em coming!

Very helpful, Thanks!

I never have made sense of clav. When you talked about the dry, unadorned style, I definitely thought of myself. I hope to eventually get better at it, with the help of this video & others.

Thank you for this, Jack. I learned a lot - as always.

Knowledge bombs 💣- These videos are amazing, keep em coming!!!

Really useful, thanks. I'm looking at getting my first keyboard and have been in a dilemma over weighted keys so this really helps. I've been watching loads of your videos and have now subscribed :)

Awesome video man, Please do more synth playing technique videos like this. I found this really useful, and was jamming on my Clav in no time! 🎹😎🙂

Great tutorial will try it out

Excellent teacher

Great video! It occurred to me during this how similar this can be to basic poly synth sound with a basic “organ envelope” (ie 0 attack, 0 release) and then maybe a bit of a resonant filter envelope for Wah-like effect. Playing style can work for both!

Great job!

Love this lads 👍👍

Cool. Thanks.

Excellent Jack. Now I know how to get that funky space duck sound. Thanks.

Awesome just that tap the desk and play black notes is a game changer chur bro

Such a good video man!!! I’m away to bang on a clav plugin and start drumming away! Cheers guys!

Nice video!! Besides this rhythmic playing, emulating fingerpicking guitar patterns on the clav is also great. "Big Brother" or "Happier Than The Morning Sun" by Stevie are clear examples of this underrated technique!

Thanks so much for this!

For the tapping technique: do you do it on hammer action keyboards also or is waterfall keybed a must?

Gee, this makes me want to play some clav patches. Thanks.

Thanks Jack you the man

Great initial tutorial for beginners.

Great ToeJam & Earl rendition :))

I know a clavinet's sound when I hear it, but I hadn't put much thought into style or technique and how it's different. Aside from Stevie Wonder, I often hear it in the 70s songs from ELO - Evil Woman, Last Train to London, etc. and now I get how it's 'pokey' as you described it, as well as some of the other effects added to it. Nice video.

Love a bit of clav 🖐😍

Sometimes it sounds like a slapped ebass. Thanks for this little tutorial. Just bought the yamaha reface cp, and wanted to learn the clavinet, cause its great for reggae. Played guitar before experimenting with synths

I used to own a real Clavinette. It was great but eventually just wore out. I couldn't get new rubber hammers for it. I'm not sure of the model but it predated the D6. It only had 2 rocker switches. I was always a very loud player back then and I found that if I held a mote like middle G, it would feed back like a guitar! If I leaned into the note I could actually bend it up a bit too! Marvelous!

@@nickmoloney9820 I bet I could do it on my Krog Kronos. I'd prefer to play the sound from my King Korg though. The Kronos has a piano feel and the actual Clavinet has a very light short throw on it's keyboard. This meant you could easily play very very fast. It just begged to be funky too.

I like the beginning of Neil Sedaka’s Bad Blood with the Calvinet.

Damn, but i wanted to know and see this. Liked the Hammond one too.

Strange how certain songs sounds its best in a certain key… Stevie Wonders «Lately» sounds best in the original key Db. (I tried with every key) Love your vids Jack! Always a pleasure to watch. Greetings from Norway🎹

The E vs Eb thing. Yup, but gotta keep your string players happy.

Love the videos man! I’d be interested to hear you talk about the essential basic patches you’d need for gigging.

4:20 exactly

I subscribed, now gimme a synth!

What is the color of that background wall?

Xavier Taplin from the band GhostNote is an absolute master of this kind of clan playing. Check him out!

Guitar voicings - put some 4ths on top. Move the 4ths around. Find alternating gospel triads to play over the same left hand. On a major chord, go back and forth between it and the ii or IV. On a minor chord go back and forth between it and the IV or VII or III. Backcycle from the VII to the IV to the I. Alternate left and right hands rhythmically or try a banjo roll type rhythm. Keep it percussive. Put a phaser on it. Overcompress. Have fun…

Brilliant! Of course it takes a Brit? To teach me Stevie clav and gospel church Hammond. Well done sir.

how to play clavinet, step 1 through 3, do a lot of things that are specific to the function of the keyboard im using.

My pet peeve about Clavinet playing is that assumption that you *have to* do that clichéd funky staccato chicken-clucking style. It’s a really nice and different sound when just played like any normal electric piano. Listen to the Clav in 100 Years Ago by the Rolling Stones - I wish more people played Clavinet like that.

oh man 🙉 so many words, on small exercises. But I like your music taste 😅 if it would sound like a clav. The bass sound isnt really there, sounds rather like a camp fire sizzle 😅

Pretty sure Stevie Wonder can hit any key he wants.

Step 1: Buy a clavinet

Sorry there are no samples or constructed sounds which sounds like the original.

I know, but a lot of the time "close enough" is good enough. If I had all the space and money in the world, I'd have a real Clavinet, a real Harpsichord, a real Grand Piano, a real Rhodes... Heck, I'd love a real Pipe Organ... But a good digital keyboard like this and some VST's will just have to do. At least until millions of dollars fall into my lap ;)

These Nords don’t sound good at all. Don’t understand the hype. Sounds nothing close to a real clav.

Man, way too much talking!
