Well since Mel Collins and Jakko Jakszyk are in this new Crimson, it stands to reason that the pre-1980 material is being brought out of retirement. Bill Rudloff

I saw Jakko playing in the Schizoid band twice. His passion for the music of Crim is incandescent and very real. If that is rubbing off on Mr enigmatic it would be quite wonderful.gOn Tue, Apr 8, 2014 at 3:39 PM, Bill Rudloff <doctorwho8@aol.com> wrote:

I just got it ! Two Memotrons. Classic line ups had 2 M400 on stage. I thought it had something to do with Soundscapes. I wasn't quite believing that Jakko was on board.

I wasn't sure Martin/all, I was seeing, "MemoTron" on here? If this is true I will gracefully bow out. Next time I am in London we'll give you another try Martin. I just could not fit a visit in our schedule this time as I have business in London periodically. I come to London 1 - 2 times a year. I may be there in September. If I am still invited to stop by?
Playing out and at my age, just scared the beJesus outa me carrying around a full size unit again. My son keeps bugging me for one in the house though. My B3 now weighs 21 lbs. I did Have one in the 70's. An original M400. :0)
Cheers and respect, Rich D.

Then as stated, I will gracefully bow out. I happen to love Markus's work. Having owned an M400, and at my age cannot carry around a full blown M400 or even a new style full size Mellotron.

Well? I do now own an M4000D and am very excited about it. The way it works, the way it sounds, ease of mobility, clarity and stability of the sound which is excellent. Again having owned and recorded my own M400 back in the 70's. I am able to make a genuine judgement.
But? If I decide to go with a home/studio unit, I would like to and may be personnaly visiting Martins' place...

As best as I can judge from previously owning and operating an M400? Yes! Actually from what I have learned, it is one step closer to the actual original recordings due to the 24 bit, non-compressed method/process Markus used. And, I really DO NOT miss the inherited "background hiss" on my M400. Some will say "it is part of the charm". Hiss is charm?

Well call it a childish remark if you will. Wrong irresponsible come back. Shoot first, then ask questions? Ever think one may be not aware of Martin's digital realm to a degree that they may not be happy with? Anyway, I have no time so silly arguments.

I have the 3100, which is the full size. Reason I did not go with the mini is that it did not have after-touch which allows for greater expression of volume and swells. I also wanted the look.

Yeah I have one of Marcus' M4000D machines, with his SD card of 100 extra sounds. It perhaps doesn't sound quite as wonky as a real tron, but neither does it weigh as much, take up as much space, need any maintenance, and it also doubles as a very nice MIDI controller keyboard with Polyphonic Aftertouch.

It really pisses me off when a simple discussion suddenly gets hijacked by attitude and confrontation. And just for the record, go and buy whatever mellotronic platform you choose. The ones we are involved with, GForce, Manikin and Omenie for iPad all sound great with our tapes and are at very competitive prices but there will never be a digital equivalent of a real tron until it emulates all the random artifacts from stray capacitance to 3 volt output and I doubt anyone can be bothered to model them! Rich, you are welcome anytime. Martin Mellotronics.com on my iPad 2013 is the 50th anniversary of the Mellotron

I think that the nearer you get to the masters, the further you get away from the machine. The "wonkyness' referred to is what makes each tron different IMO. The randomness of each note is what defines it. Also the character of the pre-amp contributes a considerable amount to the end sound. There is a place for both tape and digital versions. They both have strengths and weaknesses. At what point does a mark 2 flute stop sounding like a tron and more like a real flute? I've yet to hear digital re-create the wonderful key click. Just sayin' AK Sent from my iPad

By "wonky" I was trying to encapsulate the combined effects of wow & flutter and phase-discombobulation created by half a dozen generations of tape copying. The Streetly boys expound upon this on their video on the GMedia site for "The Streetly Tapes" for the M-Tron plugin.

It really pisses me off when a simple discussion suddenly gets hijacked by attitude and confrontation. And just for the record, go and buy whatever mellotronic platform you choose. The ones we are involved with, GForce, Manikin and Omenie for iPad all sound great with our tapes and are at very competitive prices but there will never be a digital equivalent of a real tron until it emulates all the random artifacts from stray capacitance to 3 volt output and I doubt anyone can be bothered to model them!

We've all seen and heard multiple copies/generations of VHS analog tapes. They are dirty, visually and audibly impairing. One generation for me is one too many. One generation off, ok, two generations off, maybe. 3? Not for me. Just sayin.

Is this the one that is 24 tracks? Tapes? You see to me, that's plenty! Actually on the M4000D, there really is only about around 30 sounds that are usable! The rest are somewhat duplicates of M400, MKII, MKI and so on. Nice!

I bought an M4000D a couple of years back. I've also owned many of the tape instruments, and there's an M400 here in the studio. The M4000D is very good, and gets a lot of use. Jim

I just bought an M4000D mini. I also have one of Markus' Mk. VI's.
I did an A-B comparison recently and there is a difference. The MK. VI has a bit more "presence" if that makes any sense. The difference isn't vast but it's there.
Having said that, the M4000D still sounds really great. It operates well and certainly feels nice when I'm playing it.
I simply have neither the money nor the storage space to continue buying all the tapes I'd ideally like for the MK. VI. Also, I use the tron a lot for recording and having to continuously swap tape frames on a piece with multiple tron sounds is a bit of a pain on occasion. I also can now gig with good sounding "tron" - hauling the MK VI around simply wasn't viable.
So for all those reasons, I'm very happy with the M4000D.
Let me know if you have specific questions.
Rick

Good post Rick
I did notice there is a lack of "brilliance" if you will, with the M4000D. I am always having to boost the uppers on EQ Playing live. But, it does not compare to hauling the M4000D around as opposed to an M400, which I did when I wore a younger mans cloths.

Yep, well that's why no-one's ever had a hit record featuring a wonky VHS tape.
Mellotrons, however...
We've all seen and heard multiple copies/generations
of VHS analog tapes. They are dirty, visually and audibly impairing. One
generation for me is one too many. One generation off, ok, two
generations off, maybe. 3? Not for me. Just sayin.

Except that mine has a choice of either Chamberlain or m400' not mk2! The only digital instrument I've heard to come close to the mk2 sound is the Memotron's Crimson's strings I think it was. Even then it didn't quite nail it IMO. I think it would be great if John and Martin were able to record the raw output of a mk2 (warts n all) and have those untreated sounds available either as tapes for the 400 or as a digital option for say the m3000. Just a thought. AK Sent from my iPad

Thanks Rick Reger,
I also own a Mark VI from Markus and love it and was wondering about the difference since I too want to have the 4000D for gigs.

I don't think playing sounds that were sampled from a MkII through an M400 will sound like they are played through a MkII because the M400 electronics will color the sound. Playing them digitally should work though.

No way I have golden ears, but I have used earplugs for decades at concerts in the past (both watching them and performing them) and still use them in movie theatres, on trains, subways, planes, near construction sites, etc.I did this after my 'music' friends started to lose their hearing / had their ears damaged by loud sounds and noise.And noise laws/safety are almost never enforced.I do notice the difference between a real Tron and a facsimile.When I heard Oasis 'Wonderwall' for the first time, I knew that was a real Mellotron, and when I heard Nelly Furtado's "I'm like a Bird" I knew that was samples.I think when you own the machine(s) you get to know them better and can discern them more clearly because your ears are trained to expect certain artifacts in the sound.When the artifacts are not there, you really notice it, though sometimes it's hard to put into words what you aren't hearing.The electronics in the machine undeniably process the sound, as does the mechanism. And since each Mellotron/Chamberlin model is slightly different it would be impossible to find one facsimile that replicates all those sounds perfectly.For example I'm particularly used to hearing a ';wide-ness' in sound from the Chamberlin. When it's not there it9;s feels disappointing and depressing somehow.I think this is all down to what works for you personally.

long live the mellotron! By the way anyone knows any links for mellodrama ( the mellotron documentary ) to watch it online?

I can.Wow, flutter, condition of pinchrollers, head alignment, pressure pad position/ condition/ type of preamp. Tape condition/ position.Loads of things to take it away from the original master and stamp it's own watermark on the tone!A-----Original Message-----

I agree...
When the artifacts are not there, you really notice it, though sometimes it's hard to put into words what you aren't hearing.

No way I have golden ears, but I have used earplugs for decades at concerts in the past (both watching them and performing them) and still use them in movie theatres, on trains, subways, planes, near construction sites, etc.
I did this after my 'music' friends started to lose their hearing / had their ears damaged by loud sounds and noise.And noise laws/safety are almost never enforced.
I do notice the difference between a real Tron and a facsimile.
When I heard Oasis 'Wonderwall' for the first time, I knew that was a real Mellotron, and when I heard Nelly Furtado's "I'm like a Bird" I knew that was samples.
I think when you own the machine(s) you get to know them better and can discern them more clearly because your ears are trained to expect certain artifacts in the sound.
When the artifacts are not there, you really notice it, though sometimes it's hard to put into words what you aren't hearing.
The electronics in the machine undeniably process the sound, as does the mechanism. And since each Mellotron/Chamberlin model is slightly different it would be impossible to find one facsimile that replicates all those sounds perfectly.
For example I'm particularly used to hearing a 'wide-ness' in sound from the Chamberlin. When it's not there it's feels disappointing and depressing somehow.
I think this is all down to what works for you personally. I don't think anyone hears a sound the exact same way as another.
