Rich,

I don't know but I would suspect it is unlikely.

I am not saying that that the Mellotron Archives CD sucks at all, I haven't 
heard it and I will not condemn or recommend anything I haven't had personal 
experience of. 

It is my experience that a sampled 'tron can be close but there is something 
'not quite right' about the sampled version. This also holds true for 
Fairlights, the Mellotron tapes of the Fairlight are still the closest thing 
to a real one, odd but true...

All the best,
Norm
