Hi Jim, I am sure #872 will sound a lot better than #1565 have fun.

It sounds quite good. As an user of MTron software, I agree
that yours sounds better. I have on one of my tape sets the MKII Strings and I
get to hear them for the first time in 8 days when I pick up my completely
restored M400 #872 at the Mellotron Ranch- Yahoo!!

  Warning! If you are of a nervous disposition, please
  do not venture beyond this point. However, this may be just the thing you
  need!  "Woolly Wolstenholme"

  

  Just played it back, I haven't done a good job on equalising it, if you dare
  play it, please make sure the volume is turned down to protect your ears and
  any passing cats. All dogs shoulld be provided with ear defenders.

  

  Any helpful comments would be appreciated, the E above middle C is
  particularly troublesome, I can only get it to play reliably with the pinch
  roller screwed almost all the way down, I'm hoping that a new pinch roller
  will sort that.

  

  Otherwise I need a new motor controller card and possibly a new motor, the
  new tape frame is being held hostage by NZ customs, its:

  

  A) Split choir

  B) Mark II flute

  C) M300a 2 violins

  

  Cheers

  

  Mark

  

  PS I am easily pleased.

  Hello,

  

  This email message is a notification to let you know that

  a file has been uploaded to the Files area of the newmellotrongroup 

  group.

  

  File : /Mark/Doodle. mp3 

  Uploaded by : markpringnz <markpringnz@ yahoo.com> 

  Description : For anyone interested this is what #1565 sounds like now. This
  is the old tape set Mark II strings, still a lot to do but it will have to
  wait until next year as I've run out of money. I think it sounds better than
  M-tron.
