Here's a demo of the MEL9 in the effects loop of the Meet Maude delay. Delay has random modulation turned on, which is what's giving the clarinet voiced repeats that creepy warped record sound.

Cool, calliope style effect!

Haha, a broken, lop-sided calliope, possessed by Satan. When I turned off the random modulation it sounded like a normal one tooting along with me. Made me wanna play Popeye the Sailor.

I like the Mel-9 but it does have it's qurks. I bought mine from Sweetwater and had to go through 2 of them before I got one with out a serious volume drop. the 3rd one worked ok but you still dont get a boost like you do with the B9. The patches do vary in volume which I think would be a problem when playing live. I use it on the guitar out from my GR-55 in my pedal board and run the synth and pedal board thru a small Behringer mixer and then into my amp. Between the B9 and mel-9 I really get a amazing full sound with the GR-55. I think when you get to know the pedal it's an compliment to your sound.

I am a little apprehensive...I trigger the M-Tron with Guitar Synth now, and have spent some time with a real Mellotron. It would be a better value to have all of the EH synth/piano/organ replicas in one box, though.
