Introduction

About the Memotron m2k

The Memotron m2k is an advanced sample playback based musical instrument. It can emulate the famous,
specific and genuine sound in highest audio quality. Thanks to its digital technology, the Memotron m2k is
most reliable and easy to use. Features are:

Access to up to three sounds simultaneously

Fully polyphony

Internal, adjustable effect processor

Complete MIDI implementation

Internal data storage, import of new sounds by means of an external memory card (SD card)

Compatible with G-Media M-Tron® sound library

The special characteristics of the original have been carefully emulated. This includes a maximum duration
of a played note of about 8 seconds (about 16 seconds at HALF SPEED).

The Memotron m2k supports standard data structures of memory cards. This compatibility enables you to
create and organize your own Memotron m2k sound library with your PC. 

The   Memotron   m2k   is   fully   compatible   with   G-Media’s   M-Tron®   plug-in   and   can   play   its   sounds
(recognizable at the ending .cpt). The Memotron m2k is 

not

 compatible with the newer M-Tron Pro® plug-in.
