Title: My GMedia Mellotron Pro demo track Post by: Marc JX8P on October 28, 2008, 11:05:38 AM I've been lucky enough to beta test GMedia's wonderful M-Tron Pro (http://www.gforcesoftware.com/ (http://www.gforcesoftware.com/)) and can state first hand that it's a really cool instrument full of analog warmth and has loads of patches varying from original mellotron tape banks to optigan stuff and even some synth material. I didn't think I was a mellotron fan until I played with this one! :)
In any case, I also did create some of the presets and I was asked to create a demo track which is on their site but which I also want to share with you here. I know it sounds a bit like a commercial but I really like Gmedia's products and very much recommend looking at them! Anyway, here's the demo track, hope you like it (and it's all the M-Tron Pro!). Please note: this is a 48kHz, 192 bits mp3 so it may not play back correctly over the web. It should be 2 mins in length. Alternatively, listen to it on the M-Tron Pro demo page! ;) Title: Re: My GMedia Mellotron Pro demo track Post by: kara on October 28, 2008, 02:11:57 PM Great demo Marc !
Someday you will be famous 8) By the way, did you notice that they mastered your version on the GForce site ? Quite a difference .... k Title: Re: My GMedia Mellotron Pro demo track Post by: Martin E on October 28, 2008, 02:32:03 PM Hey that's cool Marc. :;
I've been using the old M-tron quite a lot in my recent songs. (to the point someone said I used it too much ;D) I'm just a big mellotron fan. So I'll be upgrading to the M-tron Pro as soon as possible and check out your presets :) groet uit Groningen Title: Re: My GMedia Mellotron Pro demo track Post by: Oren on October 28, 2008, 03:06:31 PM ...I also did create some of the presets and I was asked to create a demo track... ...and it's all the M-Tron Pro... ... this is a 48kHz, 192 bits mp3 so it may not play back correctly over the web. It should be 2 mins in length... Those guys are so lucky to have you on board! And the demo with only M-Tron Pro sounds - smooth move 8) Plus, that 48/192 MP3 (which played very well here)... it just doesn't get any cooler. :; Title: Re: My GMedia Mellotron Pro demo track Post by: Marc JX8P on October 28, 2008, 03:13:58 PM Thanks guys, glad you like the track! I have to really credit the M-Tron though as it really works inspiring and it's both fun to play with and to create new sounds that still have that smouldering tape sound.
Oh, I know I sound like a commercial :D but I'm really impressed with this thing. Like I said, it made me change my mind about using mellotron sounds! Title: Re: My GMedia Mellotron Pro demo track Post by: folderol on October 28, 2008, 07:14:52 PM Impressive in its own right, regardless of being a demo 8)
... so when are we going to get the extended version? :D Title: Re: My GMedia Mellotron Pro demo track Post by: MarioD on October 29, 2008, 09:01:05 PM Sweeeeeeeet demo
Great job Marc! Title: Re: My GMedia Mellotron Pro demo track Post by: Marc JX8P on October 29, 2008, 09:48:22 PM Thanks guys! Not sure if I'll do a full length version, though. I hadn't thought of that.
Title: Re: My GMedia Mellotron Pro demo track Post by: Martin E on November 06, 2008, 10:05:02 AM Ok I ordered the M-TRon Pro. ;D Now I have to wait for the library discs to arrive by mail. ::)
Title: Re: My GMedia Mellotron Pro demo track Post by: Marc JX8P on November 06, 2008, 11:06:50 AM Cool Martin, you won't be disappointed! Let me know what you think of my presets!
Groeten uit Maastricht! Title: Re: My GMedia Mellotron Pro demo track Post by: Laguna Rising on November 15, 2008, 10:55:56 AM Astounding sound quality.
...and this demo is a really pro piece of work. Well done Cheers Title: Re: My GMedia Mellotron Pro demo track Post by: Marc JX8P on November 15, 2008, 07:33:54 PM Thank you! :)
Title: Re: My GMedia Mellotron Pro demo track Post by: Martin E on November 16, 2008, 08:23:08 PM Hi Marc. Received my M-Tron Pro library disc this week and wasn't disappointed. :;
Very cool sounds and presets. Liked your stuff. So how does it feel to be up there with Rick Wakeman. 8) Title: Re: My GMedia Mellotron Pro demo track Post by: Marc JX8P on November 16, 2008, 09:04:01 PM So how does it feel to be up there with Rick Wakeman. 8) Well, I've already ordered a cape! ;D Title: Re: My GMedia Mellotron Pro demo track Post by: Martin E on November 17, 2008, 09:26:52 AM So how does it feel to be up there with Rick Wakeman. 8) Well, I've already ordered a cape! ;D :D :D ;D ;D Title: Re: My GMedia Mellotron Pro demo track Post by: emdot_ambient on January 29, 2009, 10:42:03 PM Me no can wait 4 teh day wen me can has M-Tron Pro 2!
The original M-Tron is standard kit for me. I've just been getting into GMedia's VSM. And I'm still loving and using the Oddity. Now I've got to get M-Tron Pro and impOSCar 2 when it comes out. GMedia really does it the best... ...oh, I like your demo song, too ;) a lot Title: Re: My GMedia Mellotron Pro demo track Post by: Marc JX8P on January 30, 2009, 05:51:19 PM Thanks! :) I really love the GMedia stuff too. And since I'm a tester on the Imp2 I can tell you that it's really as amazing in real life as in the demo. That thing is FAT! ;D
Title: Re: My GMedia Mellotron Pro demo track Post by: emdot_ambient on January 30, 2009, 08:48:26 PM Sweet! Now if we can only get them to do Oddity 2...I needs me some polyphony on that bad boy...and an ARP sequencer emulation ;D
