Re: [Mellotronists] VIDEO: Gravity Eyelids - MHz Tv - PORCUPINE TREE live (w/Mellotron Samples?)

2006-02-09 by Steve Ball

I saw Porcupine Tree live a couple of months ago. The show was opened by
Fripp doing about 45 minutes of soundscapes (very nice although noisy,
disrespectful and small crowd) and Barbieri produced some very nice Tron
sounds from his rig.  I couldn't see exactly what he was using (definitely
not a real Tron) , but I remember reading somewhere that he uses M-Tron.  He
also did some Pro-52/Prophet 5 sounds for gmedia (the M-Tron folks).

Steve,
Cincinnati
