Famed for his unique take on music creation, experimental sound design techniques and ambient recordings have propelled Haimbach's YouTube channel to new heights. His love for the M-Tron runs deep, as is displayed by his extensive use of the instrument in over 70 theatre plays, making this collaboration a true labour of love. Hainbach's experimentation with non-musical devices, sound generators and rare exotic machines create an exciting opportunity to discover a modern collection of expansive and unusual tones for your productions.
Offering you a variety of distinctive textures sounds, the Hainbach expansion presents an opportunity to use everything from rare obscure devices to modern classics. Discover what vintage classics such as the Suiko ST-50 and modern powerhouses such as the Teenage Engineering OP1 have to offer and see how they can add dynamism and character to your productions. Recorded across the full 35-key range of a Mellotron, the Hainbach expansion includes a selection of chromatic string synths, ambient plucks and industrial-style textures.
Each sample from the range of fascinating instruments was committed to tape and then re-recorded through Streetly Electronics Skeletron pre-amp to preserve all of the natural timbre and characteristics of the sound. Once captured and dropped into the award-winning M-Tron software engine, the final recordings were edited by Hainbach himself to ensure the expansion pack retains the character of the original instruments perfectly.
