Subject: Mellotron/Clavia samples

From: Bruce Daily <pocotron@yahoo.com>

Hi all-

Here is an interesting story I ran across. Mr.
Kean has sold copies of the Mellotron master tapes to
Clavia for use as samples in their Nord Wave keyboard.
According to the following article, they will NOT be
sampled from a Mellotron first.

My thought is that this type of playback will only
represent the original recorded instruments, and not
the spirit of the machine. I think it sucks. Any
other thoughts/opinions?
