Hi Jeff
Ah, you like more special, dirty sounds like the mellotron. Do you know the Yamaha CS80 ? Here you can download a demo Version :
http://www.arturia.com/evolution/en/products/cs-80v/intro.htmlPictures of AN1X Waves do not look like Monomoog but like CS80. Its an CS clone. But escpecially the 24 dB Filter is different from CS80. CS80 Filter is producing two Formants combs if resonance is set to maximum. The reason it can sound so vocal.
But if you chose An1X Feedback to 85 or 92 and Hi-pass about 50-70 AN1X 24 dB filter will change dramatically an will produce a similar charakter. But be careful with that and reduce Amplitude if you try it.
Greetings

Hello !
i've tried your patches, some are amazing !
the nr 2 mellotron sounds very close to the motion picture "The song
remains the same" soundtrack
with the 22 you can play a reasonable imitation of the final part of
Yes' "Gates of Delirium". Not the same, because the solo synth is dubbed
by Steve Howe playing a pedal steel guitar , but i think Rick Wakeman
would be happy with "Diamonds" if his fellow was on strike...
Some prog-rock stuff, thanks !
Cheerzs.
