"These tapes were then used to create original soundbanks for a brand new Mellotron, manufactured with original tape heads, capstans,
electronics etc. And from this brand new, exquisite instrument, the sounds were recorded using state of the art technology."

I would think that if you want the sound of a Mellotron, you need to have the sound processed by a Mellotron, otherwise, wouldn't it sound too much like the actual recordings of the instruments?
