When G-Media launched the M-Tron, they had little idea as to the passion that many musicians harboured towards the orginal instrument on which it was based, and as a result we were slightly surprised when the requests came flooding in for more sounds. Of course, being decades old and prone to more than the odd bit of wear and tear, Tron sounds aren't exactly the easiest things to stumble across, and as such they had to be fastidious in their quest, contacting many users of the original instruments in the hope that they could point them in the direction of some rare, forgotten gems.
What G-Media hadn't reckoned with was the Teutonic Tronmeister himself, Klaus Hoffmann-Hock.

Owners of M-Tron Tape Banks Vol 2 will already be aware of Klaus, a self-confessed Tron maniac who has probably forgotten more about the original instrument and its sounds than anyone at GMEDIA Music will ever know. In short, over the years Klaus has amassed one of the largest tape-frame collections in the world and after the success of M-Tron Tape Banks Vol 2, and persistent calls for yet more sounds, it was suggested that we release yet more rarities from his collection for your delectation.The result is, somewhat obviously, M-Tron Tape Banks Vol 3,containing a plethora of scarce and interesting sounds from the Tronmeister himself.

In addition to some tape combinations they have also included several sound effects tapes, a recreation of Mike Pinder's legendary Halfspeed Mightytron sound, plus new choirs and other instruments which were recorded at our local church. The idea behind these new sounds was to add some unique timbres to complement the existing Tron choir sounds and bring a vague 21st century flavour to this instrument, we hope you appreciate the results!
