Please note that the GForce M-Tron Virtual Synthesizer VST plug-in requires a VST 2.0 compatible host application such as Cubase to operate. When pressed, each key on the original instrument moved a tape head onto a piece of tape to play the note or sound. In order that we replicate the original instrument's tone as closely as possible each individual tape has been sampled and coded into the GForce M-Tron Virtual Synthesizer. Each key on the GForce M-Tron Virtual Synthesizer plays an individual recording of these tapes. Once the eight seconds of tape has been played it is simply re-wound. As with the original there are no loop points giving the instrument a unique playing characteristic. GForce M-Tron Virtual Synthesizer's minimum system requirements:

"Classic Mellotron sounds from the 60s and 70s, without the price, bulk or technical problems. Great fun and now it's totally affordable." Mac Format "In short, if you're into retro sounds, the M-Tron is a must." Paul White, Sound on Sound "My GForce M-Tron Virtual Synthesizer arrived today. And it is truly fabulous. I just wanted to let you know how pleased I am with it. I played the demo to a friend who honestly believed I'd just put 'Strawberry Fields' on the stereo. Nice one." Mark Greenwood "Just a quick note to say congrats. My GForce M-Tron Virtual Synthesizer installed onto PC Cubase 5 with no problems and worked first time. The sounds are so nostalgic. I was lucky enough to actually play one of the originals back in the mid-70s". Flametop
