The memotron is a virtual mellotron, based on digitized samples from the original keyboard's sounds. Manufactured by Manikin Electronic, it made its first appearance at the NAMM show in 2006.[1]

It is used by Jordan Rudess in many shows with Dream Theater.[2]

Rick Wakeman uses them when playing live,[3] using 2 of them on "The Six Wives of Henry VIII", live at Hampton Court Palace in 2009.
