This is a shot of the upcoming Ellatron 1.4, highlighting the EllaCello & StellaPhone:

EllaCello – we heard that people just couldn’t make our MelloStrings play notes that were low enough. A problem we understand round here, as we have bass guitars in Ellatron central. So EllaCello now becomes the proudest, bassest member of our tape frame family.

So StellaPhone – what’s that all about? Well – have you ever thought “If only I had a Mellotron?” – what about – “If only I had a Stylophone AND a Mellotron – then I could play Space Oddity all on my own!”. Madam, your wish is our command – say a big hi to StellaPhone!!!

Saturday Synth Porn Video: Here is a first look at the new Ellatron Remote Visualizer, which is a new add-on for Ellatron 1.4 that runs exclusively on the Mac, and is currently in development.

Ellatron Remote Visualizer connects over WiFi to Ellatron 1.4 (and above), duplicates Ellatron’s display on the Mac, and adds customizable, swirly, groovy, hyper-psychedelic backgrounds for that authentic Pink Floyd UFO Club oil wheel experience.

Ellatron can be connected to a guitar radio transmitter for audio and to Ellatron Remote Visualizer over WiFi for video.

The challenge – can a ham-fisted non-pianist use Ellatron version 1.3’s chord banks to recreate the most recognizable and iconic Mellotron tune of all time, The Beatles’ Strawberry Fields?

The answer would seem to be yes.

What do you think, though? Can the iPhone compete as a real instrument?
