Let's hear them. I know what you mean about listening to your own work, it is very difficult to judge. I am always a little surprised that my personal favourites are usually the least popular.

That is indeed a bizarre sound! All the Mellotron in my own recordings is sampled, sadly, and even worse, most of those pieces are also songs, and that gets really subjective! Still, I usually pile Tron sounds (3 Violins usually, and occasionally Chamberlin or M300 alternatives) into them wherever possible, so that's got to count for something, eh? ;)
