    Hi, I was just wondering if this is a specific preset on a synth for this clavinet sound. Sound is at 18 seconds.


    I have uploaded the original song that is sampled , not the more famous Mariah Carey version. Here the Mariah Carey version is below.

    well if the 99 version samples the 1982 version, start there. no?

    So the original album Sneakin' Out by Stacy Lattisaw (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sneakin'_Out). Interesting, Randy Jackson played bass on that one. But the keys and synths were done by Narada Michael Walden and Frank Martin. Walden built his own studio in 1985, can you find any gear list of his from this period? Even then, you can't rule out them having access to some really nice machines like a Synclavier, even in 1982. although that might not be a realistic guess due to the great expense involved.

    This doesn't sound like a real clavinet, must be a synth with narrow pulse wave through a meaty phaser effect like the Small Stone.
