I do wish someone would convince Ralf Hütter of this fact...
these days instead of a choir of millenia-old radioactive
monsters, the 'werkers play Radioactivity with this wick
plastic digital choir sound :-(
You can't even hear the sample looping!

I love the Orchestron...It´s a close second to the Mellotron in my studio. There is something truly magical about those choirs and strings...The french horn on the other sounds a bit like it´s played inside a submarine by someone with a terrible cold miked from the surface...I have used it though...!
On my Optigan the autokomp buttons have died...sort of. They all play at once creating kind of a Tom Waits vibe...
I have to fix them some day...Now I just I play the discs in the Orchestron...
Are the Birotron sounds different recordings than the Mellotron sounds ? Would it be possible to transfer them to tape...or maybe even optical discs ?

I love the sound of the Orchestron (seriously) Missed out on a dual
manual model that was on Ebay a few years back. If anyone ever needs a
home for one, I got it
I do have an Optigan that is non-functioning pile of scrap...
