Besides uploading some more Mellotron sample sets, I've updated the already existing sets by normalizing each sample so the volume of each note more closely matches the volume of every other note. So if you've downloaded them before, I recommend re-downloading them for the most up to date versions. These are the new sample sets that have been added:
Orchestra
Mixed Brass B
Tenor & Alto Sax
Trombone & Trumpet
Bassoon
8 Choir
Church Organ
Italian Accordion
The Mixed Brass B is the brass sound Strawbs used in "Hero and Heroine".
The 8 Choir is the famous choir sound used by many prog groups and should not be confused with the previously uploaded Combined Choir.
Church Organ is the sound that Mike Pinder of the Moody Blues used in many songs, including the bridge in "Lunch Break: Peak Hour". I believe he kept the left keyboard of his MkII's on this sound all the time when performing live and used it to reinforce the 3 Violins.
Italian Accordion is the sound Mike used in the verses and solo of "Lunch Break: Peak Hour".
You can find all the sample sets at http://www.leisureland.us/mellotron.htm. Please contact me if you have a problem with any of them.

Another update. I've added another 5 sample sets to my Mellotron sample library for a total of 23 sample sets. As always, they are free to use, but cannot be used in any commercial, for profit software.

And thanks again, although it would be nice if you told me which ones were added

I think it is the Trombone, the Trumpet, the Tenor Sax, the Vibes and the Church Pipe Organ.
Am I right ?
