The Alesis keys and modules have a wave called "Tape String" that in of 
itself is a little too strident, but mixed with stock strings makes a 
killer Mellotron.  I use an S4, but I think many of the others have the 
same wave.  My band does a couple of tunes that spotlight the Mellotron, 
and the S4 comes through nicely.

Regards,
