This is one of my favorite all time Mellotron moments also.  Occasionally 
I'll fire up the the M400, hit a chord and "morph" between St. John Wood 
Church Organ and String Section.  Sounds nice and full.  I believe Mr. 
Pinder's morph was done at the mixing board.  Morphing is much easier on the 
M400 than the MKII.
