Thank you for purchasing the GForce M-Tron virtual instrument. A full PDF manual is included on the disc so please use it as your primary reference source for the M-Tron; the manual contains useful information to help you understand the functionality of the instrument.
Because every note of each Mellotron® sound was sampled separately, the average size of an M-Tron Tape Bank is approximately 21MB. There are over 100 Tape Banks featured in this collection resulting in close to 2.5GB of data. The installation takes place via 4 CDs, each one containing a different selection of Tape Banks.
Included on the M-Tron Master CD are multiple versions of the M-Tron. The M-Tron installer allows you to install any or all versions via a single installer, one for Mac and one for PC.
