Tapeotronic is a mellotron tape keyboard emulation. There’s 16 patches of flute, string and choirs sounds and MIDI learn / automation. Back a few years ago I made an album called Manasota under my pseudonym Justin Robert. For much of that album I used a Mellotron VST plugin. I’ve always loved the sound of these.
Strawberry Fields for ever !
