So they doubled the organ with the 400 strings ?  
I guess they had to do something when they went from many to three sounds.

I think they were using an M 400 in the studio by the time of Selling England....  I do wonder how they accounted for the difference in sound between the Mk2 strings and the bass accordion for Watcher which was a big part of their show for a long time. Did they have special tapes or did they just roll with what was around.


Surely somebody knows.
