A few of their kind words:

It arrived yesterday!!
Been in headphones all morning!
Man... I am in absolute love with this machine. LOVE the accuracy of the sounds..love the simplicity of everything..and it just looks perfect. Really great!
Needless to say - u will likely hear this all over the next Rival Sons record.
Looking forward to digging in to this more and more.
So are the other fellas.

Scott Holiday, Rival Sons

In the studio these days I rely more and more on software instruments but the M4000D Mellotron has become one of the few physical instruments that I want by my side. Its classic look and impeccably crafted traditional sounds are always inspiring to me. This is an instrument of the finest quality and it just feels right and sounds great.

Jordan Rudess, keyboardist Dream Theater

Received my mellotron today, what a beautiful
beautiful instrument! Can’t stop playing it.

Finneas O'Connell, producer and songwriter

Well, the verdict would be that your machine kicks the crap out of the memo to be honest. We have songs that used real strings, mellotron synths, flutes, etc... that never sounded "right" on the memo. They finally sound as intended and vivid. Very satisfied customers over here. (...) Looks like I might have some serious time to play with the coolest machine in the world! I can easily say that your product is superior to any mellotron "copy" or simulator I've ever used.

 

Brian Bridwell, Band of Horses

The coolest keyboard ever made! It's the one instrument I would take with me to a desert island.

Jason Schwartzman, actor

The Mellotron 400D is quite impressive. The sounds have great fidelity and dynamics but truly retain the character of the original tapes. It's great having tow banks to switch back and forth and to blend together. The added pitch control makes it great to fine tune sounds to the track. The audio quality is superb, the interface is easy and the Midi works very well.
