Batman 2 Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 Is the part of "And You And I" with the tubey sounding keyboards a mellotron? Link to post Share on other sites
CaptainMikeRS 0 Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 Many Divine Comedy songs use a Mellotron in the studio and then apply a session orchestra on stage but some of the songs include: The Summerhouse National Express Generation Sex Becoming More Like Alfie and many many more, virtually every song to be precise.

Aunt_Acid 1 Posted June 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 Is the part of "And You And I" with the tubey sounding keyboards a mellotron? Yes. I love the sound of the "three violins" sound in a mellotron. If they weren't so damn overpriced, I'd get one. Link to post Share on other sites
Batman 2 Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 Yes. I love the sound of the "three violins" sound in a mellotron. If they weren't so damn overpriced, I'd get one. What exactly is the difference between a keyboard and a mellotron? Different effects? Link to post Share on other sites
Aunt_Acid 1 Posted June 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 What do you mean by a keyboard? Like a synthesizer? A synthesizer uses oscillators and other types of circuitry to produce tones, and mellotrons use magnetic tape. Link to post Share on other sites
Batman 2 Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 Oh. So they make a different sound, I'm assuming. Link to post Share on other sites

Malakin 0 Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 John Paul Jones used a mellotron on several Zeppelin songs, No Quarter and Kashmir, most notably. I read an interested interview with him who knows where anymore.. But he mentioned that he hated using mellotrons live, because they had to get all the songs that used it out of the way early in the show, because of all the heat generated by the lights and whatnot, the tapes inside would stretch, and after long, it wouldn't sound right.
