New version of M-tron is out, so I'm editing this review..
First things first, is this VSTi buggy? NOT ANYMORE!
It is stable and the CPU usage is way down! The VST Keyboard is now fully functional and it is much easier to get to your sounds...
This thing sounds amazing! It is completely different from any other VSTi. I have the extra tape banks that are really a necessity. It is a very organic sounding beast. Most VSTi’s have been designed to be clean and perfect sounding, which has its place. M-tron goes for a sound all its own, well its actually a Mellotron, but in the computer world it stands out.
The GUI is simple and to the point. Basically, you load a tape bank (sample) and set the attack and release. The samples are from actually Mellotron tapes and other instruments. They vary a LOT from key to key as well as over an 8 second duration (no loops!) This is what makes it sound so unique!
If you’re looking to give your music a new (or old) flavor go and get it!
