50th Anniversary Edition Mellotronics M3000

It's great to see Omenie back with a complete revamp of their excellent M3000 app as a celebration of this year marking the 50th anniversary of the shipment of the first production mellotron from Streetly Electronics' factory in Birmingham, UK.

And to celebrate this historic occasion they present the 50th Anniversary Edition of Mellotronics M3000, an authentic replication of the legendary M400 tape replay instrument, packed with awesome additional features.

• All samples are original MKI, MKII and M400 voices from the production tape library of Streetly Electronics
• 3 new unlooped voices - MKII Vibes, Rhodes and Piano
• 3 looping modes - unlooped (maximum authenticity), 5s loops (maximum playability) and 3s loops (very high fidelity, minimum memory footprint)
