EPILOGUE

Roll the Credits.....

Last but not least... goes a little space to the creators of this little project. Some of you may know who we are already

DACOOK: for his excellent account of the Mellotron history and some very smooth EX voices your sure to enjoy! Save for this page almost every other bit of text in these pages was written by DACOOK I enjoyed reading EVERY WORD

JW: for his "timely" insertion of some of the finest drum voices around - and for his contribution of some great Mellotron source samples.

SKI: Through headache and hardship, his exhaustive efforts went into hand crafting 99.5% of the samples and WAVEs in this collection. He is also in no small way a big reason why this project turned into the monster that it did ;-) You will also find a wealth of his outstanding voices in this package and I am sure you will not be displeased.

TORUS: (narrator for this page alone) designed and manufactured the docs you see before you and a heepin' helpin' of some of the strangest voices you will ever play. Groovy!!!!

Special thanks goes to...

All of our families for putting up with our Mellotron obsession... honey, where is my LAB coat?

EX5Tech: for giving us all a home to share our ideas and inspirations, a collective of souls bound by a big blue ring.

YAMAHA: for delivering the goods in spite of troubles, I am sure we all agree life would be terribly dull without the EX.

J. P. Hovercraft: for posting the original samples that got me thinking one day shortly after big blue arrived... "hey, those cool old Mellotron samples sure would be neat to load..."

Photo credits must go to the individual photographers who, over the years have captured these moments of Mellotron history.

Last but not Least! - Derek and Ski would like to take this opportunity to give great credit and special thanks to torus. First of all, he was the spark that started this project. Second, torus is responsible for all the wonderful graphics you are presently enjoying in this documentation. He turned some of our mundane sketches into truly stunning images. Cheers!
