If Mellotrons have limitations, everything has limitations. No one ever mentions the limitations of a guitar or a piano, yet the article mentions Mellotron limitations without saying what they are. What are they?

  1. Tuning
  2. Range
  3. Voices
  4. Recording quality
  5. Timbre
  6. White noise
  7. Tape audio artefacts
  8. Tape transport
  9. Playing position

Give me a shout if you want more.
