Actually, a well-adjusted Mellotron is quite touch-sensitive, with
differences of attack via velocity and polyphonic tone and volume control
via pressure. They are extremely nuanced and alive-feeling instruments,
something they rarely get proper credit for.

I use m-tron hosted by FL Studio and find it quite frustrating that I can't find any way of altering the note volume within a track. A sample based touch sensitive tron would at least have one advantage over a real one.

Any bit of crap will do. The M-Tron doesn't need much. It only requires
35 active keys, does not respond to touch (good) and does not respond to
voice changes either (bad).
