Perhaps a mating of Mellotrons would result in a tape frame with two tracks
of various sound effects and one track of three octaves of baby cries and
screams. Before I had a Mellotron I tried to get this effect using one baby and one
#4 mallet. Unfortunately, with only 10 fingers and 10 toes with which to
work, I was only able to extract slightly more than two and one-half octaves.
Spectacularly clear in the upper registers though, I must say.
