Ok, sounds like I'll have to get hold of it. What is everybody's opinion regarding the various mellotron choirs. I only have access to M-tron at present, my favourite is the split choir which is the 8 choir but with the trebles on the right and the basses on the left, gets abit awkard in the middle but I am planning to have one choir sound and this seems the best compromise.

The only band I ever heard use the split choir are Scottish '80s proggers Pallas, who were actually quite good before perfecting 'stadium prog' (played in clubs) later in the decade. Not bad, but awkward when crossing the split point!
