The  M300 Strings on the Pinder CD are mislabeled. They aren't the 
M300A 2  Violins and M300B Solo Violin, but M300 Cello and M300 Viola 
(at least  that's what the samples are labeled and that's what 
they sound like). The  M-Tron has 2 versions each of the M300A and 
M300B. One set sounds better  than the other and they both sound 
similar to the M300A and M300B I have  on a Streetly tape  frame.







I actually have the M-Tron samples. I'll sell them to anyone who  wants them 
for $60.00. Never used.
