Emulating mellotron and string machine with AN1x?

2003-01-15 by Timo Sandholm

Hi,

I've noticed that in the list there are lot of knowledge about old analogue keyboards. So I'm asking if you can give me tips how to create mellotron and string machine sounds using AN1x - or is it even possible to simulate those with my blue beast. What are the things to look for? Also I'm curious how the sound is created originally by those machines? I understood that in the mellotron there is some kind of tape inside but that's all I know :-) ... but what is the sound creation method of string machine I don't have a clue :-) 


Cheers,
TimoS
