The Mellotron Group

Not only different pedigrees, but different states of wellness (or diseaseness). There are some decent sounds, but most, I think, aren't such good quality. In the M-Tron Pro, they tried to "fix" some of the sounds and ended up making them worse. At least they left the original versions, so you have a choice.

I think the Memotron is now obsolete. It's just the M-Tron in a box and it costs more than the "M4000D" (hopefully, the name will change before it comes out on the market).
