There are no bad things I could say about this instrument. It`s just awesome looking and sounding piece of music gear. It`s nice built all covered with nice metal chassis. Control desk is coverd with glass pane with lighting mellotron logo. On the desk you also find two nice looking displays with really nice graphic.
It includes huge bank of sounds. Sounds are based on various types of classic mellotron machines, it goes from classic 70`s sounds to some more real sounding instruments. You can set two sounds at once and then mix them together using the A-B knob which helps to even bigger variety of sounds.
I love to use Mellotron in studio. It just works with any song and any genre. Sometimes I use also external effects (delays, reverbs, modulations, drives etc.) plugging it into guitar amp. It`s pushing this instrument to the whole new level and the sounds are like from not this world, just so inspiring!. Can`t wait to use it also live.

I bought this a year ago and have not ever regretted the purchase. It's a very well built piece of equipment - I have toured with it and it holds up really well to life on the road. I also use it for studio work, and have never had a single problem. Great sound quality and features, and the customer service is also excellent, always answering questions promptly. I can't say anything against it... It's not cheap, but it's worth it.

Ein Traum geht in ErfüllungA dream comes true

Ich habe das Mellotron M4000D Mini in Treppendorf ausgiebig testen dürfen und es dann sofort mitgenommen, nicht mal die Thomänner aus der Synthie-Abteilung durften nochmal ran.
Das Gerät (Seriennummer 125) funktioniert tadellos, einziger Makel ist das Fehlen eines Handbuchs. Die einzelnen Punkte im umfangreichen Setup-Menü sind allerdings weitgehend selbsterklärend (bzw. im zweiten Display kurz erläutert), mir fehlen momentan nur Infos für die optimale Wahl geeigneter Fußpedale (Sustain, Volume und Fußschalter fürs Scrollen in den Play-Listen). Als Effektgerät dient mein altes DigiTech DSP16.
Sound und Spielbarkeit überzeugen rundherum, näher am elektromechanischen Original geht vermutlich nicht. Einigen Klängen (Trompeten, Saxofone) merkt man die Zeit an, wann diese Aufnahmen entstanden - so spielt man heute nicht mehr. Klasse!
Ich werde mich von meinem Mellotron nicht wieder trennen.

I was able to test the Mellotron M4000D Mini extensively in Brückendorf and then took it with me straight away, not even the Thomanns from the synth department were allowed to try it again. The device (serial number 125) works perfectly, the only flaw is the lack of a manual. However, the individual items in the extensive setup menu are largely self-explanatory (or briefly explained in the second display); I am currently only missing information about the optimal choice of suitable foot pedals (sustain, volume and foot switches for scrolling in the play lists). My old DigiTech DSP16 serves as an effects device. Sound and playability are convincing all around, it probably couldn't be any closer to the electromechanical original. Some of the sounds (trumpets, saxophones) show the time when these recordings were made - we don't play like that anymore. Class! I won't part with my Mellotron again.
