I've been lucky enough to beta test GMedia's wonderful M-Tron Pro ( 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!  |

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  ) 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 |

Those guys are so lucky to have you on board! And the demo with only M-Tron Pro sounds - smooth move Plus, that 48/192 MP3 (which played very well here)... it just doesn't get any cooler. |

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  but I'm really impressed with this thing. Like I said, it made me change my mind about using mellotron sounds! |

Impressive in its own right, regardless of being a demo ... so when are we going to get the extended version? |

Thanks guys! Not sure if I'll do a full length version, though. I hadn't thought of that.

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. |
