Having a lot of fun with this! Mar 17, 2010
By Carlo D'Anna
"Mortimersnerd"
I have always loved the sound of Mellotron in music from Genesis to Moody Blues. This instrument has its own unique sound that has never been emulated, since it had grown out of fashion. Being a Home Hobby music producer and recorder, I had read about the M-Tron Pro and the previous version and wrung my wrists, thinking whether I should take the plunge and add it to my plug-ins in my software.
I have used Xpand with its host of voices and was pretty stoked with it as well. I obtained the M-tron and after a brief learning curve, have really enjoyed it, and am using Xpand less and less.
Having never played the original analog Mellotron, I don't really know what may be missing.
But so far, with some tweaking I have produced some awesome retro, spacey effects to my tunes. Some of my frequent listeners tell me they really love how it sounds. I would recommend this to anyone who is currently in search of mellotron in their music.

Incomplete But Very Accurate Feb 07, 2010
By DW The M-Tron Pro has many Mellotron sounds but is incomplete. Instead of focusing solely on Mellotron, the makers were bored with the concept and added a few samples of unrelated instruments like Hofner bass, Optigan (worthy of it's own emulator), ARP Pro-Soloist and Roland VP-330. I would much rather have a complete set of all rhythms and fills that the Mellotron Mk II could produce. Search for sites that list the Mk II's sound list.
Also missing is the ability to have two independent, 35-note keyboards like the Mk II.
Still, M-Tron has the most accurate samples.

Alright, but..... Dec 14, 2009
By M. Stevens
"Paradoxicon"
This actually does sound like a real Mellotron! HOWEVER.... it also seems to have as many problems as the original.
I don't know what GForce was thinking. The Pitch bend controller number is not the standard controller that is normally used. You might think that you could get around this, and you can, but it is really a hassle.
(Manufacturer's Note: With regards to the use of CC95 for the control of the pitch wheel. The pitch wheel doesn't react to pitch bend info as it's not scaled in the same way as bend. CC95 was used in order to optimize the M-Tron's on screen functions for use with a PhatBoy.)
That is dumb. They are limiting the use of this product. Go figure.
There also seems to be a problem with the tuning of the instruments that were used to make the sound clips for this product. I find myself constantly adjusting the fine tuning when selecting new patches.
When I get it working, I DO like the sounds.
