PavlovsCat Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 Okay, someone talk me down or tell me that AIR's Mellotron plugin is fantastic. Like many AIR users, I had some really bad experiences (I had to roll back Windows on a machine) with AIR synths a couple of years ago with problems AIR knew about but didn't fix for several months. Consequently, I do look at InMusic plugins as a less than great choice since then (plus, I've read forum posts from BFD3 owners and all the problems that has had over a ridiculously long period of time). Even so, my brain is now pushing that terrible experience, common sense and logic aside because -- I am a sucker for all things Tron (including Chamberlin) and this is only twenty bucks (USD, that is). I have a number of of Tron plugins, including M-Tron Pro (which is excellent), Mello (UVI), SampleTron (version 1) and a lot of Tron sample libraries. I'd love to hear the opinions of anyone here who owns AIR's Mellotron and what they think are its strengths and weaknesses. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PavlovsCat Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 (edited) There's a 10 day trial version at AIR's site. https://www.airmusictech.com/virtual-instruments/mellotron.html Edited July 1, 2023 by PavlovsCat Removed link to a video with a YouTuber playing patches after I was made aware that was for Arturia's Tron synth not the Air one -- d'oh!

But I found this video with a YouTuber walking through some patches: Do note that the video is for Arturia's instrument and not AIR's. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitekrazy Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 Hard to beat the IK version. Honestly a Mellotron is for nostalgia purposes. How kids listening to music on their phones say this mellotron rocks? Basicall it was one of the early samplers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh man, I was going through a bunch of videos that came up on a YouTube search and watched that entire video (okay, listened while I was multi-tasking and never realized that us actually the Arturia's Mellotron)! Of course, if any Arturia plugin was 20 bucks, I'd buy it in a heartbeat! I'll fix my post above. Thanks for catching that.
