Expanding the tapes
The unavoidable popularity of this plugin has influenced artists and productions considerably, over the last 15 years or so. Thanks to the inclusion of so many original gems from the Mellotron library, individual sounds and patches have featured heavily in many musical settings. The rhythm section elements, which are included with the M-Tron Pro factory patch-set have in some cases provided the backbone to complete tracks. Notable users extend from the pure pop of Caro Emerald, through to the moody electronica of Röyksopp. GForce have encapsulated the Mellotron concept, into a brilliant piece of software, which is accompanied by a vast library of additional and associated original tapes. These can be purchased and added to your M-Tron plugin at any time, but it may also be worth considering the expanded ‘Complete’ edition (£333+VAT) which will catapult your source sample content to a very grandiose 11.3 GB.
