Memotron

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Memotron is a virtual Mellotron, based on digitized samples from the original keyboard's sounds. Manufactured by Manikin Electronic, it made its first appearance at the NAMM show in 2006.[1]

Jordan Rudess of Dream Theater used a Memotron on the band's Chaos In Motion Tour in 2007 and 2008, and can be heard playing it on the live album Chaos in Motion 2007–2008.[2]

Rick Wakeman uses the Memotron when playing live.[3] For the recording of the 2009 live album The Six Wives of Henry VIII Live at Hampton Court Palace, Wakeman used two Memotrons.
