Re: [newmellotrongroup] Re: mellotronworks
First I want to thank you, Mike, for sharing that with us. It’s a lot of work and a very generous gift. I am wondering what method did you use to record it? Did you go straight into a channel strip, preamp or did you play through a miked amplifier? I am guessing the former. TD
 

Well, I e-mailed the link to the music to The Frippster and he replied saying that he'd listen to it provided I sent him an autographed copy of a real CD.

Robert Fripp. Wants my autograph.

Robert. Fripp.

Fripp.

My autograph.

PS: But hey Robert..no flash photos, okay?

Mars - Well done Mike. All the dynamics are there at the right time.
Even the snare drum is right on the mark. The stereo mix is good.
It needs to be played through good monitors with a big-ass amplifier.

I'm sure that if Fripp heard this, he would think that it was damn good.
It has that sinister, foreboding, feel to it. (Like only a Mellotron
can do).
