Satan - I'm curious. Sounds like you're going for a big, layered sound. If so, I'm certainly looking forward to hearing the end results.
automatic bzooty - in my younger, protestant punk days, I used to sneer at Mellotrons for being the sound of the "enemy". Now I've grown up, they can sound gorgeous, though I still think that the very idea of Keith Emerson wanking away on one is enough to make me want to heave. But that's not the fault of the instument....King Crimson, Hendrix, the Zep and Quiet Sun knew how to use one.

i don't know if it's going to work out at all, it was mostly just an idea but i still want a mellotron at least for my own personal use

^^^Funny, I was thinking that the 2 bands who can do a psych orchestra sound at present are the Brian Jonestown Massacre, and MBV, at least on record. I think Spiritualized tried for that sort of sound as well, but for me it never really worked, due to everything being orchestrated as opposed to being arranged (a crucial difference, I feel).

Fixed. Floating - isn't it about time we got together for our own Rock Band Sisters of Mercy tribute act? You can be Doktor Avalanche.

and by the way the first Polyphonic Spree album was good gleeful fun. a bit sugary, perhaps, but just the right thing when the mood strikes me.

We have a real mellotron in our band. Nowhere near as heavy as a regular organ. I love the sound of that thing!
If you're goign to get one, might as well go all the way and spend 14 grand on the clear one. |

Our keyboard player is a bit older than the rest of us and is an electronics genius; he keeps his Mellotron and vintage synths in perfect condition and does all his own work.
