Dear all

OK, some confusion here - were there two different versions of the M300 tapeset? Is that what's meant by 'A' or 'B' violins? I've got a list of the M300 sounds in the same Word doc as the MkII, but it only lists one track of violins.

Andy T.

Orig.  "B" series tapes loaded within M300/037  have piano and organ
across the entire keyboard (52 keys) at Station-6.

Diminished chords (# 1-3), Rhythms (# 4-16) & percussion (# 17-19).
Percussion keys also include the ending codas similar to  MK-II's.
Leads from # 20-52 .    "A" Series tapes have 2 leads across the entire
keyboard at different Stations. 2 and  3 , I believe .

Most bespoke tapes for M300 series are span-limited. Only the
piano,organ sounds are full-range. Too bad the violins aren't ....
Please correct me  anyone, if I'm in error.
