Vibes
Recorded from a set of tapes that had clearly seen better days, we’ve been surprised at the number of people who love this vibe
sound.
Viola & Cello
An ultra-rare combination of the presumably lost master-tape‚ Viola and a slightly different Cello recording.
Violins 1
The famous 3 Violins recorded from the line-out of a modified MkII. This is the bone-fide classic string sound featured on countless
records since 1964. The Moody Blues’ Mike Pinder used this sound in his Mk II Mellotron
®
for every Moody Blues album he recorded,
processing it with EQ and an EMT plate reverb.
VP Choir
A mixed male and female tone taken from the VP330 Plus and much loved by early synth pioneers.
VP Ensemble
A mixed choir sound combined with the instantly recognizable sound of the
Roland chorus.
VP Males
A male-only tone, similar to the VP choir, again, much loved by early synth pioneers.
VP Rhythm 1
An interesting vocoder rhythm recorded at 120 BPM
VP Rhythm 2
Another interesting vocoder rhythm recorded at 120 BPM.
VP Swell
An evolving single-note vocoded sound. Play chords for more fun.
Wine Glass
Fantastic! Not least because the age of these tapes has created some very wobbly wine glasses indeed. Note: There are only 25
notes in this Tape Bank.
Woodwind
A typical Mellotron
®
woodwind sound.
Yes Strings
A full-bodied custom tape especially recorded for Patrik Moraz’ live shows with Yes. Never heard on any recordings.
