Add the sound of the classic Mellotron electro-mechanical instrument to your repertoire with well-designed emulation that comes with many other virtual synth features
Tapeotronic is a mellotron tape keyboard emulation. There’s 16 patches of flute, string and choirs sounds and MIDI learn / automation. Back a few years ago I made an album called Manasota under my pseudonym Justin Robert. For much of that album I used a Mellotron VST.
We tend to think of synthesizers as the beginning of electronic music, but history isn’t always so straightforward. One example of an early electro-mechanical instrument is the Mellotron, created in 1963 and made popular thanks to The Beatles, but also bands like Genesis, King Crimson, and Tangerine Dream.
When playing the instrument, its keys would trigger playback from magnetic tapes that contained various recorded orchestral instruments. Musicians found different ways to play the Mellotron, often resulting in unearthly sounds that became typical to that era’s music. If you want to use the instrument for your contemporary compositions, then the Mellotron V is probably your best bet.
Size 149 MB Redtron SE uses samples recorded from a 1973 Mellotron M400S. The samples have been cleaned (not too much) by removing an annoying 60Hz hum and some unwanted 'clicks' and 'pops'.

I'm a huge freeware fanboy but specific emulations aren't exactly freeware's forte. Very few I would say are close. Though many free emus are still great synths even if they don't come that close to their hardware counterparts - OXBD and Super-7 are really great. Back in the seventies I owned a Mellotron M400. I have tried all the free clones. Not only does this VST render a decent emulation of the original, it also has full MIDI learn and remote control of it's parameters from your MIDI keyboard controller. Another wonderful offering from Elektrostudio.
Another fine emulation from Arturia
Best Free Mellotron Vst
It’s hard to be disappointed by any synth or keyboard that Arturia recreates for their V Collection. Not only is the sound quality amazing, but the programs come with many extra features that make them proper virtual synths. Mellotron V is no exception. As soon as you expand its interface, you get to experiment with combinations of different magnetic tapes (and there are plenty to choose from).
The sound can be modified via an amplitude envelope, but you can also adjust the filter, tape saturation, mechanics, or noise floor. The last two parameters contribute to creating a more clunky sound, that increases the “real feel” of the emulation.
Effects and presets
Apart from those parameters, you can add up to four effects, including chorus, flanger, delay, equalizer, compressor, delay, distortion, or reverb. Each effect has its own design and set of parameters. You can also add various amps to the instrument, as well as rooms with different acoustics.
While Mellotron V is fairly easy-to-use compared to other synths, you can still start by using one of its many presets, which include bass, keys, leads, organs, pads, and strings. There’s no doubt that this is a capable and well-designed musical instrument, that can be used not only by those passionate about the early sounds but also by today’s open-minded producers.
