The funny thing is that the typical funky sound that made the D6 so famous (think "Stevie" !) is not the only sound that a D6 can make. I personally like to use it with a very clean, undistorted, almost acoustic sounding amplification with a little bit of sweet reverb and chorus and play ballads with it. If you only know the Clavinet from the old records, or from sampled intstruments, you probably never heard this kind of sound :-)

BTW. The Clavinet is in may ways similar to the Clavichord. That's an instrument I would like to put on the wishlist for future Pianoteq instruments. Would fit nicely in the list of historical instruments.

I am a Hohner D6 lover and would really enjoy dumping my sampled one for a PhysMod.
Dynamics Slider could be awesome for replacing the mute amount fader on the original D6.
Having an expression Prdal attached to that slider means it's an advantage over the real hardware.
I love software that out performs the hardware it emulates.
On the old D6 we had to stop playing to use the mute slider which meant the critical rhythmic left hand went silent.
With a pedal we could open and close it like a 24db Ladder Filter on a Moog, only instead of frequencies opening up we could morph from full mute to full open.
Well I use Scope DSP platform where we often out route and out perfrom the hardware mixers, effect and synths we emulate.
When software out perfroms the emulation it becomes quite valuable.

I think the clavinet must be easy to do for Pianoteq when we know what they allready have done.
