Toontrack EKX Mellotoon

Description

EZkeys Mellotoon is based on the Mellotron keyboard introduced in the early 1960s. This unique instrument was the first of its kind to include real instrument samples, but unlike the modern digital sampler, the Mellotron pulled them out of a loop of magnetic tape that ran inside the keyboard. It came with various sounds for piano, strings, flutes, brass and is probably best described as the very first "band in a box". Naturally, it was a revelation from the start. Early adopters included the Beatles, Moody Blues and King Crimson, all of whom immortalized the Mellotron's unmistakable tone in numerous hits. Today, this piece of instrument history is enjoying a massive resurgence across a wide range of genres.

EZkeys Mellotoon captures the essence of this one-of-a-kind keyboard and comes with 15 individual instruments, carefully sampled directly from an M400 Mellotron model using a mix of direct and amplified signals. On top of that, it includes a generous selection of custom effects and sound chain presets, giving you a whole new creative start to an already seemingly bottomless pool of awesome sounds.
