Bring the lush, haunting character of vintage tape-based keyboards to your rig with the EHX Mel9 Tape Replay Machine — available now at Haggerty’s Music. Designed to emulate nine of the most iconic Mellotron sounds, this polyphonic pedal lets guitarists, bassists, and keyboard players access classic orchestral textures without the need for special pickups or MIDI systems.

The Mel9 delivers faithful reproductions of Orchestra, Cello, Strings, Flute, Clarinet, Saxophone, Brass, Low Choir, and High Choir tones, tracking single notes and chords with remarkable accuracy — even handling bends, slides, and dive bombs. Independent Effect and Dry volume controls allow you to blend your instrument’s natural tone with the lush Mellotron voices, while the Attack and Sustain knobs give you precise control over how notes fade in and out. The dedicated Dry Output lets you route your unaffected signal separately, expanding creative possibilities.

With its wide tracking range (down to A1 on bass), easy integration, and expressive response, the Mel9 is a powerful tool for adding rich, cinematic layers to your sound.
