Mellotronics M3000
Warbly choirs. Eerie strings. Strawberry flutes. And a luscious Tenor Sax Ron Mael would be proud of. Yes, it's the biggest, best, brightest and most progtastic Tron for the iPad, powered by genuine production tapes from the archives of Streetly Elecronics. It is awesome.

We are still stuck in review ...
... sorry for the delay folks. A dumb AudioBus problem - our fault, hands up, sorry - followed by the late discovery of a critical bug has pushed us back to the start of the review process, so it may be another 4 or 5 days yet.
In the meantime, here's what you'll get once we are done - it's GREAT, so please just be patient for a few more days. It will get there soon!

- 3 new unlooped voices in this refresh - MKII Vibes, Rhodes and Piano
- 3 looping modes - full tape duration unlooped (maximum authenticity), 5s loops (maximum playability) and 3s loops (very high fidelity, minimum memory footprint for memory-tight AudioBus situations)

- All-new retina graphics, makes use of every pixel of iPad retina display

And unlike many music apps on the iPad, there is no pressure to upgrade your device - the app is fully backwards-compatible with iPad 1 via iOS 5.1 support, and runs just as great on iPad 1 as it does on the latest hardware*.
*iOS 6 and iPad 2 or better are required for AudioBus support.
