I've used a combination of M-Tron and the Mike Pinder Presents (Mellotron Archives -
www.mellotron.com) samples in my own stuff, and it is (to my ears, at least, as a fellow
non-tronner) acceptable.
In both cases the ranges are fixed to that of the Mellotron, although I have on good
authority (this little lot) that some of the M-Tron's samples have been tweaked to get rid
of some of the more dodgy notes that featured on the original Mellotron. Generally M-
Tron has a softer sound than MP Presents, but I trust MP Presents as a more accurate
sound source.
So I'm afraid yet another with no opinion of Vintage X Pro! Sorry!
