Re: [CZsynth] Mellotron patches for VZ???

2004-06-28 by Summa

Hi,

I don't know since I hardly use synth sounds I haven't programmed myself but I 
would expect to find quite some mellotron sounds for the DX7, maybe named by a 
song title. Since the Mellotron simply using tapes, I still think it would make 
more sense using a sampler...

Here are some melotron samples as download...
