The M Tron Pro and it’s expansion packs are completely believable and as authentic as they come. I’ve used these on many records and on tour – I couldn’t do without them in my arsenal of sounds
OptiTron
Recorded from our own Optigan, the OptiTron Expansion Pack for M-Tron Pro offers 25 rhythms, a plethora of sound effects and a sprinkling of lead sounds from one of the world’s most highly prized, kitsch, home entertainment instruments, the Optigan.

The Original Instrument
Optigan®
Originally manufactured by toy maker Mattel®, the Optigan was an attempt to break into the burgeoning ‘home entertainment’ market of the 1970s.
It used LP sized plastic discs on which sounds, backing tracks and effects were stored and these were read by an optical sensor on the instrument itself.
