    I have always loved the Mellotron and its ghostly, ethereal tone possibilities. Though an inveterate multi-instrumentalist, I am admittedly less skilled on keys than on guitar/bass/percussion, and I despaired of finding a Mellotron 1) in working order, 2) that I could play competently. This pedal is outstanding for on-the-fly string arrangements, but I also found the flute setting adapts especially well to tremolo effects. Needless to say, the pedal features prominently on an album I'm currently recording. You showcase it so well!

    Nice work with the Moodys in there on the flute setting!
    I've loved the mellotron for so long and this brings a lot of those original qualities, like the wow/flutter, that are what made the tape replay instrument sound so beautiful.

    • @PerryFrank

    • @jcameronferguson
      @jcameronferguson Год назад +2

      Fun fact about the Moody Blues and the Mellotron! It was none other than Mike Pinder who delivered and set up the Mellotron in Studio B of Abbey Road, mere weeks before The Beatles did Strawberry Fields. About two weeks after the Sgt. Pepper's sessions wrapped, The Zombies checked in to begin work on Odessey and Oracle -- having been suggested the Mellotron because their label, on the back of a string of flop singles like "I Know She Will" (which features a lovely orchestral arrangement), refused to disburse the funds to hire an arranger and symphony section. And thus, the legend of the Mellotron was born.

    This is a Great unit I got one and found if you put a good quality compressor before it and a good reverb after it, it really smooths it out nice and takes all the sharpness out of it to give a more natural orchestration sound . I used the compressor from the Analog Alien Joe Walsh Double Classic before it and the 80s studio Reverb setting on the Strymon Flint , Sounds Incredible ⭐️🌞👍🏻

    The Mel9 is the heart of my main board. Dry (a mix control) is set to zero, so the wet & dry channels have their own FX. The Mel9 goes through phaser, shimmer and volume pedal. With a 12-string electro-acoustic guitar I find that the orchestra, low choir & high choir track best, but flute is a lovely sound for the occasional lead line.
