The difference is that the MTron Pro Streetly Tapes are recordings made from our Skellotron replaying actual mellotron tapes so you get the eq lift from the pre amp/line amp. We would NEVER put out master tapes as they do not dound like a mellotron. The MTron Pro Streetly Tapes are much more authentic in sound than the erroneously named Scandanavian thing!

As I understand it the M3000 and M4000D play digital samples taken direct from the master tapes whereas M-tron and M-tron pro are digitally sampled mellotrons.
How do you get the digital sample from the master tape? Do you just play it on a high quality reel to reel tape player?
I ask because having messed about with the M3000 and M-tron pro Streetly pack there is I think a distinct difference in the sound. I am not saying that one is better than the other but they do sound different.
Thanks
