Anybody did the typical Stevie Wonder sounds ?
Superstitious, I wish, Isn´t she lovely ...

All the songs have "Standard" Instruments, but they all sound special ...
Like the clav in superstitious ...

Any suggestions ?

Hello tommy,

Maybe in good hands that know how to play this riff and tweak the sound this could be a starting point :

The original is "lighter", so I tried : - switch on the eq and lower the bass, - shorten the amout and rate for de delay
Maybe it's better ! [youtube][/youtube]

Edit : I have tried to use the "Clav Eq Hi" and "Clav Eq" of the piano section instead of the effect section eq, add a wah, add chorus ...
A truth is that I don't play the riff correctly so I can't make it sound

[youtube][/youtube] Too much wah again, I'm not pro, plz forgive my wrong notes, maybe the patch can help someone anyway

A last one & another attempt for superstition, played with two hands this time & changed the clav : C, brill, treble, med and soft are ON, "A-WA2" effect (the closest to the original MU-TRON iii ?)

Perhaps you should search torrent sites for "Superstition Multitrack". I have it and you'll discover that there are 8 tracks of clavinet, but really only 2 distinct parts. The doubled up tracks have various pickup selections and delay effects. All of this means it's difficult to make it sound like the original track.

Here is my attempt - I've placed the brass sound too. So here is how it works: The clavinet-sound is at the lower- and upper, and the brass-sound is at the high. Also I've switched off the sustain function for the brass, so that you can sustain the clavinet-sound, without this interfering with the brass sound. Give it a try!
