DRIFT005 Clavotron

DRIFT005 Clavotron is a hybrid hammered and plucked string machine for Kontakt.

Packed with deep sampled articulations of real Hohner D6, and intriguing variations on the clav sound. It can do an authentic recreation of cool 70s clav, but you'll also find amped and feedbacked D6 alongside the bright, soft and muted variations. There's a real harpsichord (plucked, not hammered strings), analogue clavichord via the gorgeous Siel Orchestra2, and deeply faked, modeled, FM'd and bad clavichords made with hybrid software/hardware combinations.

The unique stacking system of the DRIFT universe means obtuse impossible instruments are no longer impossible, just stack them together and sculpt the sound in your head...or use one of the many pre rolled variations.

You could play Superstition with DRIFT005, but you can do better. It is much more interesting to think of the clavinet as a 60-string electric guitar.
