Piano Tab
Piano edit tab
The Piano edit tab of each of the four instruments contains five knobs.
D To “turn” a knob, click on it and drag up to move the knob setting clockwise, or down to move it counter-
clockwise.
Bass and Treble
D Use the Bass and Treble knobs to increase or decrease the level of lower or higher frequencies in the sound.
Attack and Decay
D Turning up the Attack knob will gradually remove the attack phase and “fade in” the sound of the keys you play.
D Fully turning up the Decay knob will let the samples sound out with their normal decay (providing you press the
key for as long as necessary or use the sustain pedal). Gradually turning this knob downwards will shorten the
decay phase.
Character
D Set this knob to center setting (12 o’clock position) to get the neutral sound of the instrument.
D Turn the Character knob to the left for a softer, more intimate sound and to introduce noise components.
D Turn the knob to the right for a rougher, slightly out of tune sound - as on a used instrument.
Damper Switch
Some original Hohner Clavinets are equipped with a small white handle, looking like a fader. On the original
instrument, it is located to the right of the keyboard and controls a felt-coated damper that can be lowered
onto the strings to dampen them. The Vibrant Clavi equivalent to the damper handle is the Damper switch,
located in the Clavi’s Piano edit tab above the Character knob.
D Press the Damper switch to get the damping effect.
q This switch is only available when you select the Clavinet.
The Vibrant Clavi Damper switch is located above the Character knob.
