Hi Jim, I am sure #872 will sound a lot better than #1565 have fun.

It sounds quite good. As an user of MTron software, I agreethat yours sounds better. I have on one of my tape sets the MKII Strings and Iget to hear them for the first time in 8 days when I pick up my completelyrestored M400 #872 at the Mellotron Ranch- Yahoo!!

Warning! If you are of a nervous disposition, please do not venture beyond this point. However, this may be just the thing you need!  "Woolly Wolstenholme"

Just played it back, I haven't done a good job on equalising it, if you dare play it, please make sure the volume is turned down to protect your ears and any passing cats. All dogs shoulld be provided with ear defenders.

Any helpful comments would be appreciated, the E above middle C is particularly troublesome, I can only get it to play reliably with the pinch roller screwed almost all the way down, I'm hoping that a new pinch roller will sort that.

Otherwise I need a new motor controller card and possibly a new motor, the new tape frame is being held hostage by NZ customs, its:

A) Split choir
B) Mark II flute
C) M300a 2 violins

Cheers

Mark

PS I am easily pleased.

File : /Mark/Doodle. mp3
Uploaded by : markpringnz <markpringnz@ yahoo.com>
Description : For anyone interested this is what #1565 sounds like now. This is the old tape set Mark II strings, still a lot to do but it will have to wait until next year as I've run out of money. I think it sounds better than M-tron.
