I’ve always loved the Mellotron sounds used by The Moody Blues, King Crimson, The Beatles and so many others. The Streetlytron Pro gives me those sounds and more. Interfaces nicely with my Axiom 49 2nd gen midi keyboard controller. I’ve assigned the 8 rotary controllers to operate the 8 Streetlytron knobs, and assigned the drum pads to store and recall presets. Live rig ready and really expands my sonic palette. Show more

Having bought two previous versions of Mellotron iOS apps, I can say this is the best! Not only the latest collection yet, but a higher sample rate. Very nice indeed!

As a kid, I grew up searching for the special sounds that connected all of my favorite music from the 60s and 70s. It took a long while until I realized how many times that sound was the mellotron. Of course, it was some version of flutes and violins and horns, but the sound had a special quality that was wholly unique beyond the instruments of origin. As a user of this company’s previous mellotron app M3000 and the desktop, M-Tron Pro I was curious about Streetlytron as a rebuild. I love the updated interface and think that it makes it really easy to select new sounds. I also like the 8 channels that you can save your presets to all neatly laid out. It really is user friendly, looks great, and sounds beautiful. I’m also excited about future upgrades that they’ve alluded to. Definitely worth a look! I’m really diggin the “Three Cellos Louis” patch. Absolutely beautiful. Show more

Maybe the best app ever for iOS. That sound.

Sounds fantastic, the fidelity to the sound is clearly higher than the previous version of this app (which as not bad got an app). But this, this is road-worthy, for sure. The midi tweak-ability is outstanding. The interface is nicer too. My only tweak would be to have the ABC blend knob be done in an xy pad so one could blend all three voices, though maybe it’s too processor intensive. Good job! Show more

Very very cool.

I am a Mellotron fanatic. It is my absolute favorite instrument after guitar. I’ve owned a ton of Mellotron variants since I can’t afford the real one. I started with Mike Pinder’s AKAI library, I’ve owned a Nord Stage with their Mellotron sample library. Two variations of the Memotron at different times. GMedia’s Mellotron original and Pro version for my Mac with all the add on libraries. And I’ve owned this developers iPad apps with his libraries since release. I’ve been so excited for this mostly for the incoming AUv3, but also the promised sonic improvements and it does not disappoint. There is so much more there in this version and it still has all that lo-fi Mellotron magic we love. With the tone control, 1/2 speed, optional MK2 EQ preamp and cabinet modeling you have so much variation in sound available for each tape set. Want it more aggressive with some added mid-range bite, turn on that EQ, mellowed out just turn it off and turn that tone known left. This app holds its own against everything I own and have owned and it’s so usable for any studio or live application. To have this in my iPad is just ridiculous. AuV3 will make this the perfect app and its already a go to for me in less than a week. The developer has also already added two new tape banks in the first updates and is promising more in the future that will get us from (now 65) to almost 100 with no extra costs! Talk about a great deal. Thanks for the hard work and making my “perfect app” for iPad music making. Show more

So, i bought this sight unseen as i love the previous version, the M3000hd. But this new app does not sound as good. There is a high frequency artifact that I’m hearing, kind of like a bad low bit rate mp3. This sonic problem isn’t present in the M3000. I’m hoping they can update this with a fix soon. I’ll add more stars to this review if that can happen. Show more
