The Mellotron Group

I suppose if you are going to tour and you need that "look," and all those  
sounds, the Digital machine would make sense. 200 Mellotron and Chamberlin  
sounds in one box is attractive. I think that alone is the big attraction. 
But  once you have all of those sounds, Markus has nothing left to sell you.

Can't we all just get along ? I think a quick look at  world history or 
even the mellotron lists, would suggest the answer is  no. 

I can't think that anybody would confuse a mellotron with a  rompler that 
has  a strange keyboard.

Is anybody on the list  thinking of buying an M4000D? I would be surprised.

I can  understand why somebody would  buy an M4000 but not the M4000D why  
not just by the mellotron CD? Is Marcus still selling the Mellotron CD?  I 
wouldn't if it was my business.

escape being annoyed at the mindless mindset that trys to instigate  
consumer confusion by using a similar name yet riles at Memotron  infringing 
almost everything including the fridge and  underpants(leaving a witty 
personality unscathed). The truth is that  NO ONE ELSE but he should be engaged in 
anything mellotronic. But that  is never going to be the case because we are 
here for duration and no  slight of hand or clumsy marketing device is going 
to alter our  course.

Ran out of money. I wanted  the Ph.D but since I had to pay my way I 
accidentally got a job that  paid a lot of money and ended up married and with a kid.
