Little Red Corvette- SotT (film)

Does anybody know what instrument they used to produce the clapping sounds (the 'clap clap' ones at the end of each line)? They had a somewhat mechanised sound.


Did that make any sense? biggrin

Since this was a live setting, would they have used a drum trigger or a keyboard patch for the hand claps? I would assume keyboard, since Sheila didn't seem to have triggers on SOTT.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

Maybe the Linn sounds could have been programmed into Dr. Fink's Fairlight computer? He used it on the title track.
