Can anyone comment on the Canadian Mellotron company, the Mike Pinder sample CD, and its use in a Kurzweil K2000? I have a band due in the studio next month who want some Mellotron sounds and I can not afford a Mellotron at this time.
Put it this way - it's better than having nothing at all...but it's not great. I only heard the samples recently and I found a lot of them having some weird EQ issues. If you're just looking for the usual suspects then it's okay (though the choir sounds pretty poor to me. Also be suspicious of the 'tuned' sets. They are no more tuned than the originals in many cases!
