Another reason a                real Mellotron is better than the digital gadget, in my                opinion.
          
                  
    
    I have said this before and will say it again. It is not the    'digital' business that makes it good or bad - after all, that is    just a recording mechanism like tape - a means to an end.  However,    it's the tampering that people feel compelled to do with    the digital recordings that bothers me. Interpolating. Noise    reduction. Tuning. EQing. Normalising. 
    
    So far I have found no one anywhere who has just recorded    the instrument 'as is' and left it like that, warts and all.    'Honesty' aside, it would just sound better.
