Dear All,
We don't know how many people on this list have mellotrons BUT we would like a very serious answer to a very serious question: it takes a lot of effort from a lot of people with a generous and boyish enthusiasm to get stuff made, recorded, remanufactured and generally made easily available for all and sundry who enjoy being a member of the small and elitist group of Mellotron owners. However, sometimes the deafening silence to new sounds, products and technical advice makes you wonder just who is listening. A negative reaction is just as valid as a positive one as long as there is a reaction! Did anyone like the Russian Choir? Do you want new sounds or are we rooted solely in the past(this is NOT a criticism). What modifications would you like to see made available(if possible). We will be able to offer genuine copies of the original Tape Frame cases very soon if anyone would like them. Lets have some feedback on what would excite and enthuse the mellotron owners on this list so that those involved in preserving the instruments can priorortise their efforts. Thanks.
Martin
