When I say then in Winterland (S.F.) he was playing an Orchestron........

Please don't beg :)    .....I sure the Orchestron probably cooked and he switched to something barely more reliable down the road :)

Cheers,

Gary

Beg to differ!
Live he used a Novatron Mark V!
Wish I'd bought it, but went with 2 M4000s instead.

....no Mellotrons were used on Relayer...you can hear the difference....
Great guitar tone!
"Patrick Moraz got equipment (from its developers) which was still in prototype stage (for example, a Vako Orchestron, used for the string sounds throughout the album"

my favorite yes album is RELAYER

It's my favourite one as well.  "Gates of Delirium" cranked up really loud is always a blast, I had it on in the car last week.  No really an outstanding mellotron album to me, at least though
