Re: [newmellotrongroup] Mellotron/Clavia samples

2007-12-06 by Mark Pring

Web site seems to suggest they will be sampled from a
mellotron

"The nord wave comes shipped with all 68 instruments
of the Mk I, Mk II, M300 and M400 Mellotrons. By
sampling the sounds using fresh tape copies and a
newly manufactured mellotron instrument - built using
vintage components - the nord wave reproduces these
sounds with all hisses and fizzes exactly as they were
meant to be."

Don't like the sound of the hisses and fizzes though.
