About Arturia Mellotron V

Psychedelic analog sampler.
Long before synths, the Mellotron put an orchestra at the keyboardist's command using tape recordings of real instruments. Mellotron V harnesses all of its lo-fi goodness in an authentic virtual instrument, respectfully enhanced for modern music-making.

Tape-Based Orchestra Keyboard
Flutes, strings, brass, organs, choirs - if you wanted these sounds in the 1960s, the Mellotron was the only solution short of hiring section players.

Its unheard-of realism was infused with the quirks of each key playing a moving analog tape, creating a sound that went down in history with The Beatles, The Moody Blues, King Crimson, Led Zeppelin, David Bowie, and countless others. Mellotron V brings that history, with every beautiful sonic imperfection, to your musical future.

More Than Sound
Mellotron samples have been readily available for decades, but Mellotron V provides the full, immersive experience of playing the genuine article.

Original Samples
Mellotron V's collection of 65 original tape banks is utterly authentic, recorded directly from the actual tapes.

Inspiration Machine
Realistic and otherworldly at the same time, Mellotron V's tones will lead to riffs and musical ideas that the best hi-fi orchestral samples won't.

Roll Your Own
Load external samples and stamp the Mellotron's vintage signature on any sound you like.

Nights in White Plywood
Purists will love Mellotron V's authentic, uncluttered interface.

Unlike the synths and samplers that would come later, the Mellotron didn't resemble the helm of a spaceship. We kept that look, but with deep FX power just a click away.

The best of Both worlds
Mellotron V goes way beyond sampling to give you the most authentic, versatile, and straight-up usable emulation ever.

Faithful modeling
Our proprietary technology reproduces the electro-acoustic behavior of the original Mellotron at component level. The reason it sounds so recognizable is because we reverse-engineered the actual tape system, right down to the transport and tape heads. That means you can even dial in the amount of tape flutter, tape saturation and mechanical noise you want, along with the beautifully crisp preamp and electronics that perfected its classic sound.

World-class sampling
No expense was spared seeking out mint Mellotrons and tapes, including the M400 production unit and all its predecessors. With the finest sampling technology, those timeless sounds have been translated and preserved digitally with Mellotron V - now they're yours to craft your own musical music with.

And then some
Load any instrument sounds you want from the built-in library into the three tape tracks in whatever combination you want. Dial in a mix of any two adjacent tracks, or use the mod wheel to perform crossfades across all three. Effortlessly set up splits and layers complete with multiple instruments on each track. Whether in the studio or on stage, Mellotron V perfectly balances the original's coveted character with the cutting-edge flexibility your creative flow deserves.

Mega 'Tron
In addition to FX, we added the kind of high-key control over your sound that no hardware Mellotron ever offered.

The Advanced panel lets you dial in exactly as much lo-fi tape character as you want, manage and edit samples, and more.
