Re: [Mellotronists] Re: Improved Tron Technology

Hi all,
Well there is of course a Hammond spring line in all M300's and it's 
said to be a nice one too. Personally though I don't use it except 
with M300 violins to get that " Galadriel" sound where you put the 
whole signal through the reverb spring. An interesting effect but as a 
 reverb unit I don't really think it works well with the other tron 
sounds. I prefer digital anyday.
The only improvement I'd like to see on mine is quieter bearings. 
That bloody rattle drives me mad!
John
