Hello all, well since I am new to all of this I would love to hear your
"Expert" opinions about some of the best and most usefull sound combinations
when selecting tapes.. My first tape is gonna be the basic a. 3 violins
b. cello c. flute... The extra tapes will contain 8 voice choir and?
Im not sure yet.. I am open for anything as I plan on having an extensive
Mellotron/Chamberlin library.. Looking to maybe get bass clarinet, Chmberlin
Kinura organ, Chamberlin flutes, Mk II Brass, Vibes, Chamberlin Steel
Guitar, .. hmmm what else?

Hi Derrick,

Go to http://mellotron.com/soundframe.htm and try the different 
sounds for yourself; then go to http://www.blackcat.demon.co.uk/tron/ 
and try out the original sounds and the new sounds like Russian Choir.

Best of luck with your new Tron!

Hi Derrick,
The best sounds on mine apart from the usual 3 violins, 8 choir, 
flute,  brass etc are the oboe/cor anglais - which is sublime, the 
church organ - which is the best I've ever heard (make sure your 
windows are in in tight!) and mixes well with choir, classic strings 
is lovely and very light and airy. I've also got male choir which gives 
me the shivers - but I've not heard the new russian choir yet so that 
may be a good choice.
