Mark,
the thing to keep in mind is that M-Tron doesn't use the standard midi
pitch wheel channel assignment. Hopefully they supply you with the
channel numbers when you buy the software, if not, I can dig them up
for you. For me the best thing about M-Tron was that when I came to
grips with the fact that most of the sounds were pretty rank, it fired
my resolve to get the real thing. Thanks to the Mellotronists list, I
got 1407 within a year.
