Excellent Mellotron Sound
This app sounds closest to a Mellotron than any I have used and for a reasonable price. Excellent value for the money!

All analog (one exception)
I run an all analog recording studio and every piece of gear in the studio is vintage and analog. No sampling or triggering or plugins or auto tune. Just hardware tools. Except for this one sampler which does such a fantastic job of emulating the real mellotron! This is one instrument that it has always made sense to me to sample since the mellotron itself is nothing but a very archaic sampler without any sort of special dynamics to capture. I think that Manetron took the right path by not correcting all of the eccentricities of the original instrument like the pitchiness and the short length of the original tape samples. The sound blends in so nicely with the other instruments in a track and lends some serious character whether mixed up front or tucked way back where it can really pass as a string section with the right arrangement. Been using it for almost a decade now. No complaints here!
