Emulating mellotron with solaris

Post by Soul circuits »

Hi lucky owners
I know you are spending more time playing than replying to starving waiting future owners as I'm but maybe some of you tried to emulate the mellotron?
Does the Solaris has a bit reduction functionality (I remember it was discussed somewhere but could not find it...)
Thanks to all for any feedback :lol:

Yes, there is a bit reduction algorithm in the insert FX section. it's called BitChop.

It's a cinch, Bit CHop works great too.
I have the tri octave strings using samples from a famous string developer, and also have severalo good vocal samples, but Elkhorns Vocals just using synth parameters and not samples is more suited for the Melotron.
I had the GMedia for years but no longer need it since Solaris. 8)

Redundant for Solaris owners, but noted out of interest, GMedia have updated thier offering as a reason Rack Extension :

The classic 'Apocolypse in 9/8' mellostrings are there....and a super GUI....worth the price over the old M-Tron.
