M-Tron mk II - Celebrating the Mellotron

[@AlexBallMusic]

Brilliant Marius. Sounds superb.

[@mariusleicht]

Thank you Alex! :-)

[@EnviroDouglas]

You rock that thing out!!! my grandfather was an audiophile before I knew what an audiophile was. He had a music room where he would rock out and have parties with dancing. This music brings back some of those feelings. Thank you.

Damn it… I’m trying so hard not to buy this plug-in, but every video I see of it makes that harder and harder… I already have so many mellotron sounds through Arturia and Omnisphere, but this plug-in has captured something special. Great video and great performance!

[@aftertheendtimes]

I ordered your Weltmaschine Lp 🙏👍 i am exited to hear it Thanks Dear Marius for your presence and light. Love cheers from Sweden ☯

[@FlockOfHawks]

Music & Furniture go together very very well 💖

[@hurricane6014]

The Melotron and Chaimberlin has always been tops. You can ride them in any genre and and provoke euphoria

[@GForceSoftware]

Oo... Lovely lovely lovely.

[@brafmetoo7560]

Just found your channel and checked out Weltmaschine - absolutely love it!

[@ronwrolson4771]

Marius!!!! Love you Man!!!!

[@retrosound72]

Sehr guter Klang. Super

[@David-mj2ln]

I feel entirely nostalgic-but I've no idea what for! Fantastic demonstration of this remarkable instrument and plug-in!

[@Musik_Arbeiter]

You play the Mellotron expertly! I enjoyed the demo and the overview. Great performance Marius! 🎹🎶

[@willswitchcraft]

This is such a great upload...and there was also the Chamberlin, (made in the US by Harry Chamberlin), who's sounds had less compression, and where (reportedly) more reliable...................

[@martindiehl155]

Great presentation Marius, like always.

[@davidbundgaard]

Amazing sound. So happy this was shown to me

[@tolfred]

Great lotus position too!

[@ToreHansen]

Bonkers video and performance!

[@kikuskas]

Awesome demo and music, man! Congrats!

[@rblechta]

Excellent video! Thank you.

[@elcamino.unofficial]

Wonderful sounds!

[@jameswaugaman8052]

That was really an informative video and lots of fun as well! Thank you!

[@michaelwirth6843]

Amazingly good and the best part is the whole experience is so far from the music industry of today.

[@faithalityblog]

Awesome presentation man, thank you very much :D

[@ElectronicazMusic]

Lovely!

[@curtman2k]

Wow! Nice work!

[@SoftSynthPortal]

Cool! Win the first place in my "check that at the next black friday" LIST !

[@chrisgoheavy]

Bravo ☺️

[@phenomenon5490]

Dope!

[@ijszeiler1]

Marius, you did a great job. A good presentation, with good examples. I liked hearing. Fantastic instrument, the Mellotron. When you listen to the old albums of the Dutch band Earth and Fire, you immediately recognize that instrument. Same for Heart and Emmerson Lake & Palmer.

[@JohnLRice]

😎👍 Although ELP only used a Mellotron a few times live played by Lake to try to recreate Abaddon's Bolero but it didn't work out well. I'm not sure about Heart's use.

[@RayyMusik]

That ‘groove‘ at 0:56 … :D I guess they did the right thing firing the rhythm section and building the M400.

[@hoblon]

Epic!

[@antonioesposito334]

Bravissimo sembrano le musiche dei film di Ennio moricone bravo

[@murtonmuffley6724]

Could you get the Mellotron sound from Tuesday’s Gone on it?

[@jeremyjohnson7676]

Amazing! What about the M-Tron Pro IV? Does it have the same sounds?

[@zachhaywood1564]

A great Mellotron band that doesn't seem name checked much was Tangerine Dream.

[@j0n.p]

Terry Riley for Halloween

[@biggsteevo31]

Do you do books on tape? Great reading voice

[@donaldswan1587]

Fantastic demo, thank you! Does this demo use the soundbanks supplied with the Mkii, or are expansion packs added?

[@mariusleicht]

All sounds are from the stock soundbanks.

[@JohnLRice]

Very nice! For those that don't know: All Mellotrons were "invented" by copying and making some improvements on the basic design and technology of a "stolen" copy of a Chamberlin Music Master 600 instrument. (a Chamberlin salesman took a sample to England and sold it as his own invention, what a jerk!) The Chamberlin was developed and patented by Wisconsin inventor Harry Chamberlin from 1949 to 1956. There are good WIKI pages for both Chamberlin and Mellotron to read the details.

[@SFDBRecordsUK]

I didn't catch the first album you recommended, what was it again?

[@mariusleicht]

Motorpsycho - Begynnelser

[@ElectroBro808]

same
