I agree. Dave Kean’s Mike Pinder CDis great! A must if you want the complete Mark II sound set!

 

Or you can check out my Tron samples at www.vintagekeyboardsounds.com .There are two sets: Set A is 3 Violins, Cello, and Choir, and Set B isStrawberry Fields Flute, Mixed Brass, and Cello. Each set is $20. BTW, thesesamples have been authorized by Dave…

the mellotron archives/pinder disc is the best ihave ever heard.
[ymmv - there are some out there that are reallyawful.
it's an AKAI format CDROM. [see: http://www.mellotron.com/cdlist.htm]
using the program "cdxtract" [see: http://www.cdxtract.com/ ] you can
translate the samples into other formats for usewith other
samplers/software. it has a great variety.


btw: is this a typo on the mellotron.com site?:
