Clay, I'm a bit confused, but you guys already know that. :-) Is this the same Tron that you lent to John Medeski for the Spectrum Road show ? What do you mean by the Ikea-Tron ? Why did you sell it ? Robert ________________________________

I have been looking at the Ikea Nord Electro 4D. (Viking red!) A very good B3, Vox Continental, Farfisa simulator but it still only has 68 MB of flash memory for samples. Is that really a problem? If I can have two or three mellotron voices loaded at once, I'm happy. Any of you guys using an Electro 3? Clay --- In newmellotrongroup@yahoogroups.com, "tron400" <tron400@...> wrote:

Claybaby, Get yourself MTron Pro and the Streetly tapes. More authentic than any other software based keyboard. The only thing better is a real 'tron but you have obviously discarded that idea! M unit mellotronics.co.uk

Would you be able to share mellotron samples that you uses in place of the Nord samples. I also have a Wave. Dan Sent from my iPhone

I played an Electro 3 recently, has a very nice action, good organ and piano sounds, somebody had wiped the mellotron sounds. I think my next keyboard will either be an electro 4 or a Kurzweil PC3K8, if I don't build a spinet, buy a harpsichord, buy a harmonium, build a porative organ or restore my tron!

i am very pleased with my electro 3, although the sample memory is only 68 you can use it nearly 10 to 11 mellotron sounds,the looped versions which sound decent enough.Its a great all around instrument ps: the unlooped versions are not that different,no blending though Michael kechagias

Clay - I've been using a Nord Electro 3 for a couple years now for band projects. (I've actually used it for some recording too.) I like it a lot. The Hammond, Wurlitzer, Rhodes, Clavinet samples are all quite good (and I have a real Rhodes and D6). An XK-3c is much closer to a real Hammond but the Nord is still surprisingly good. I also used it to fill in for my Mk. VI when I had some repair issues recently and I was pleased with the accuracy of the Mellotron samples. I think it plays well, is ridiculously light and swapping in/out sample sounds is incredibly easy. The one thing you should know in advance is that the standard piano samples are average at best. It's hard to believe they could get so many of the other samples so right and miss so badly on a freaking piano, but somehow they did. Perhaps there's an improved download for that now. Other than that, it's been a plus to have around.
