This one is made by John Check and contains all three sounds.

This one is the reed sound, cutted and looped by Paolo Ingraito.

There are the 3 mellotron sounds, sampled by a friend of mine who has a
music store and has sampled it before selling it.

Unfortunately not, I think. And now the "real thing" isn't available
anymore. The samples are too short, and aren't complete (I don't know
how long were the original mellotron samples)

I don't think the notes were sampled for more than some second.

I agree, but that flac is all we have, and we have no more access to the
mellotron. But Paolo's work on looping is good (IMHO) for a 4Mb
soundfont, especially the flute
