The Streetly Tapes – Violins & Vox
A new violin and vocal pack, made the old way.
Where earlier volumes drew on the Streetly archive, Violins & Vox is freshly performed: Claire Lindley’s virtuoso violin in ten articulations and Caitlin Downie’s voice in fifteen, from a soft Mmm to a full Forte.
Every note was given the Skellotron treatment on EMI tape over correctly aligned heads. 25 banks and over 180 patches.

Violins & Vox
Previous Streetly Tapes volumes drew varied sound sets from the vast original Streetly Electronics tape archive. With Violins & Vox we did something different: a brand new violin and vocal pack for M-Tron Pro, built from the strong and varied vocal performances of Caitlin Downie and the virtuoso violin voicings of Claire Lindley, lovingly given the Streetly Skellotron treatment for the unique sound only EMI tape over correctly aligned azimuth heads can give.
The Streetly Tapes Violins & Vox is also available with new purchases of the M-Tron Pro Complete bundle, which includes M-Tron Pro IV and all the Expansion Packs: a superb 12.5GB+ sound library with 525+ tape banks and 3700+ presets.
