The Mellotron Group

Hey Andy,

You might want to take a look at the Kurzweil PC-3 line.  The new firmware has the organs sounding great, the pianos
are, well, Kurzweil (outstanding), and other synth stuff, even analog type stuff is quite good (even Mellotron sounds).
Nord has some great all-purpose keyboards as well!  Try them out and see what works for you.....

Subject: [newmellotrongroup] OT modern synth recommendations



Dear all

It looks like I'll be playing abroad later this year, without being able to
take my regular rig (Jupiter-8, Taurus pedals, generic fake Hammond and
piano). I'm hoping to be able to use my Pro-One (which will fit in a
suitcase) to fake the Taurus and a mono synth patch I need, but I'll have to
hire something locally to cover everything else, i.e. overdriven Hammond,
piano and synth strings. I'm almost entirely ignorant of modern synths, so
does anyone have any recommendations for something I can ask for? Assuming I
get any choice, that is :-)

Many thanks in advance,

Andy T.
