Mellotonus


Well, I enjoyed it.

Loved it!  Beautiful and dreary (as it should be).  A bit o' Halloween!

Mark that’s some of the best Mellotron work I’ve ever heard!
Think I’ll treat myself to that tape set!
Thanks for posting it!
Those M300s are damned sure going in my M4000 too!

Thanks very much Tony. 

I actually used the Mark II 3 violins for this piece. The tapes came with the machine and are probably at least 20 years old but not the original tapes the machine was shipped with. The tapes aren't in great shape, well the tron isn't either, and I was surprised at how good they can sound.

Until I owned a tron I always favoured the M300a violins, try as I might I can't get the sound I want out of them, I firmly believe on no evidence whatsoever that you need an M300 to play them on. I am beginning to prefer the sound of the 3 violins.

Mellotonus


Well, I enjoyed it.

Mark,
 
I've had two Microns and the MicroKorg. The Microns are awesome machines  
and have the same engine as the Ion. There is a more powerful vocoder in the  
Micron and it has tons of cool presets. However, I run my MicroKorg through 
 my Triton and use that keyboard much of the time. I love the ease of 
programing  of the MicroKorg. I also like the ability (with battery power) to 
play it  anywhere, including on an airplane or out on the back deck.

I tend to play my Microkorg using my Korg K61P midi controller as I find  
the mini keys a bit of a pain. I've heard people say good things about the  
Alesis micron ( which has standard keys ) as an alternative but I haven't  
played one. The 61P is my second favourite syth it has 24 inbuilt sounds and 2 
 effects so I spend more time playing than twiddling the  knobs!

Frank Stickle suggested the Microkorg to me when I was looking for a  
portable synth, I must say it's my favourite synth, produces some wonderful

Until I owned a tron I always  favoured the M300a violins, try as I might I 
can't get the sound I want  out of them, I firmly believe on no evidence 
whatsoever that you need an  M300 to play them on. I am beginning to prefer th
e sound of the 3  violins.

It's nice to hear (and see) more members playing on this list.  Tom, what are you using for that
Genesis like guitar sound?  It looks like you have a little controller under the Nord.  It sounds great!

Well done, Tom!  The tone progressions are very Crimson-esque (a good thing).

Agreed on the MicroKorg.  I have the big brother MS2000 and it's the only hardware analog modeling synth I own.  Lovely work by Korg on that one.

Frank Stickle suggested the Microkorg to me when I was looking for a portable synth, I must say it's my favourite synth, produces some wonderful sounds.

Your post was a double treat, as I recently purchased a MicroKorg XL, and that little sucks kicks some serious butt .

Thanks very much Tony. 

I actually used the Mark II 3 violins for this piece. The tapes came with the machine and are probably at least 20 years old but not the original tapes the machine was shipped with. The tapes aren't in great shape, well the tron isn't either, and I was surprised at how good they can sound.

Until I owned a tron I always favoured the M300a violins, try as I might I can't get the sound I want out of them, I firmly believe on no evidence whatsoever that you need an M300 to play them on. I am beginning to prefer the sound of the 3 violins.

I just ordered the Kawai MiniAK, and it has full size keys.
These keyboard have brought the fun back for me, they’re great and affordable.
