> I've tried to create a Mellotron Flute voice

Heh.

Reminds me of hacking away on my first synth, a Kawai K1-II.  An "additive
synthesis" rompler.  You could stuff up to 4 waves from the 128 in the wavetable
(about 1/3rd were entirely useless) into a patch and then put an envelope on
each one.  No filter section whatsoever.  Talk about trying to get blood out of
a turnip...

But I did manage to create a lively emulation of a car engine starter cranking
and then the vrooom of it pulling away.  Must have taken me 8 hours to build the
patch... but there was this elating sense of success when I used it to lead off
a song at a live gig.

Don't get me wrong, Magnus, I admire your efforts.  I suppose what I'm saying is
that I've gotten lazy in my old age and would rather use my A3000 sampler to
play Mellotron flutes when I need them.  :.>
