Hi, Tony.

 

How different (one of a kind)?  Have you even seen a picture of the proposed layout for the M5000?  Do you expect delivery before the world ends in 2012?

Yes I've seen a pic of the M5000,and I don't like the retro look.

So I'm getting 2 M4000s in black, plus some unique features that I can't discuss at this time.

I don't for a min believe the world will end in 2012, it's rubbish to me.

Read yesterday saying the world ends on May 21 2011, or Oct 21, 2011.

Seriously, does the M5000 look different (other than the obvious) from the M4000?  I assumed it was simply a wider M4000 with two keyboards.

Tony,

Thanks again for your invitation for me to come up and visit you.

When do you anticipate that you will be receiving at least 1 of the M4000's ?  That would be great to A / B the M4000 with your properly refurbished M400.

A while ago, you mentioned that you were having a little difficulty in selecting the tapes for the M5000.  If I owned a mellotron, I would definitely order from the "Streetly's" library the Les Bradley Medieval Woodwind Mix and the Ebow, because I appreciate the sounds of "period instruments".  You might want to check these sounds out.  Does anyone on this list have tape sets / frames that include those sounds ?

Robert

No, but I recently acquired the new Streetly Lbow sound and the Veryevil woodpecker sound. to round out the period sounds I chose the PMS Choir.

You should check out "Gothic" here:
<http://www.mikedickson.org.uk/tron/gothic.mp3>

'Gothic' sounds pretty damned bad-ass I agree, but I'm not completely sure where you would use it. It's so completely monolithic sound that it would destroy everything in its path. 

If you are going down that route though, make sure you get the tuned version. The strings and organ are both all over the map tuning-wise and together they sound like cats in a blender.
