The demo plays through each of the sounds in turn: 'M400 Violins', 'M400 Violins Yes EQ', 'M400 Violins Smooth Ryder EQ', Cello, followed by demonstration of the five double-bass notes on the Cello sound, String Section, Mk II Strings, M300A (violins), M300B (solo violin), Mk II Brass, GC3 Brass, Mk II Flute, Woodwind2, Combined Choir. There then follows a demonstration of the low-pass filter, which is swept using the modwheel, using the 'M400 Violins' sound. Notice the tapes running out: the Mellotron's seven or eight second note length is preserved as the samples are not looped. The filter is manipulated again briefly to find a nice setting, before playing a pad part using the 'M400 Violins'. The final part of the demo uses a short motif played with the filter fully open again, first on the 'M400 Violins', then String Orchestra, M300A (violins), M300B (solo violin), Mk II Brass, GC3 Brass, Flute, Woodwind2 and finally Combined Choir. No processing of any kind was used, except Linuxsampler's in-built low-pass filter, where noted above. |
