Can you tell more about the M1 Frank?
Is it the ebay one demonstrated by that lady with 
the hairy arms?

I won't. It's the best of the lot. I'd love to have one just to have.  It's 
not a Mellotron, but it has cool sounds in it, and lots of them. It has  
Mellotron sounds and Chamberlin sounds. It had friendly  software and it does 
cool stuff. It isn't a Mellotron but it does as good an  imitation of one as 
you're likely to find anywhere.
 
If you have both you're all the better for it. I was thinking of buying  
one and sometime soon I might. I am fortunate because I have a real M4000  
Mellotron and I love playing it and having others play and record it. I  also 
have acquired a real Chamberlin M1.

In a live  or studio mix you would never hear the difference especially 
after the  reverb and  
other  processing that is commonly used on Mellotron tracks.  It will 
almost  certainly out  
sell the  tape machines but most on this list will hate it no matter what 
it sounds  like.   
Fire  away…. J

I hadn't seen this before, I think I can just tell the  difference between 
the M4000D and the Mark VI. I don't suppose anybody on  the list has been 
tempted?
