his hands are literally hams

@EmptyHero Er....yes, quite!

[TheBeatlesAreNo1]

Where art thou can get thy mellotron and how much would thy be

[tronfan66]

@TheBeatlesAreNo1 Well, thou art verily able to get new Mellotrons now, if samples doth not cutteth the mustard for you! There's either Streetly Electronics in England (the latterday version of the company who originally made Mellotrons from 1963-1986), or there's the company just called Mellotron which is run by a Markus Resch. Be aware, they're not cheap, but you get a new machine, and in the case of Streetly and the new M4000, 24 sounds in one instrument. And still cheaper than eBay prices!

as far as i'm concerned it may not have been re-done on the exact same instrument but it sounded more or less perfect. great playing!

[tronfan66]

@kingofkeyboards Thanks!

[jimmyjamjoe88]

[TECHhelpWITcomputers]

@TheBeatlesAreNo1 Just get a Nord Electro 3, forthwith. I kid you not, it comes with all the Mellotron samples you can think of and they sound exactly right.
