Why You Need the Mellotron M4000 Digital Mellotron:

Since its presentation in 2010 the digital Mellotron has been very popular at the trade shows Namm and Frankfurt Musikmesse, being selected as Mix Certified Hit at the 2010 NAMM show. It has been developed by us here at Mellotron. It is solely our own product and has features rarely seen in today’s keyboards.

Painstakingly recreated, the M4000d offers all the classic 60’s and 70’s melltron sounds in a elegant digital package. The 37-note wooden keyboard offers depth sensitivity and polyphonic touch, as well as midi output. Original Mellotron and Chamberlin lead sounds from the original archives, are present to create the sounds of the Beatles, Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin, with goose bump inducing results. An on board expansion slot allows you augment the stock sound set with additional flash card sounds sets (sold separately). Balanced gold plated XLR outputs allow crystal clear audio for direct recording.
