The Mellotron Group

I can compare form an M1 and an M400 on the cello and 3 violins. I can't
say which I like better though... the M1 is brighter in both cases but the
M400 seems fuller. Two slightly different sounding instruments but each
with its purpose. The M1 sounds better to me with the tone control nearly
all the way up - the M400 I have the tone at less than half.
