I think Markus has done the right thing with using a Mellotron keyboard. The feel of it is what influences you to play a certain way, and maybe the samples he's using are controlled or influenced by how it's played hence the necessity of that keyboard.
The only people who could design this right are Markus and Streetly.
 
 
I'm surprised at the inclusion of Optigan sounds though. I have all 40 discs and many lead sounds are duplicated, so there's really not as many as you think. What will be lost though is the ability to play them at different speeds.

I'd be surprised if it was that cheap. Didn't someone post $2700? That seems more likely, but even that could be low.
