Hmmm...Maybe the REAL comparison is comparing #805 to its sampled self  
(which I can also do on my PC)?  Nawww, I have to rearrange my sock  drawer.


From my experience the real thing still wins! Smpled every note, full  
duration for a friend into a top end Yamaha sampler and as soon as you play  chords 
the Mellotron wins hands down even though these are samplws of the same  
machine.
 
Same with a Fairlight although strangely the Fairlight samples we put onto  
Mellotron tapes get very close to a real Fairlight which was odd and very  
ironic...
