Hi Chris
I’m VERY interested in pictures, movieclips and MP3. Please put me on the mailing list. I’m the lucky owner of a Series III

Emne: [Fairlight-CMI] MP3s and
video clips
Dear all,
Confession time: I don't own a Fairlight
:-( but I am a great admirer
and I did briefly play a Series III at a trade
show in 1986 at Earls
Court, London (ahem when I was 15!).
I have lots of other samplers thought: Emax Se,
Emax II, Casio FZ-1,
Ensoniq EPS 16+, Mirage (currently dead) and two
(British hurrah!)
Cheetah SX-16 (did someone say aliasing?).
I have a tape from the defunct UK Electronic music
magazine
Electronic Soundmaker and Computer Music from
February 1985 if memory
serve me correctly.
It features Vince Clarke (Depeche Mode, Yazoo etc)
putting his
Fairlight II/IIx through the paces with a Linn
Drum.
I can MP3 this and load it up to the files
section. Are people
interested in this?
Furthermore, I found an old Betamax tape (oh yes!)
with a UK BBC
program from about 1985 on it about synths in
general. There is a
short clip of Kendall Wrightson from Syco Systems,
London,
demonstrating a IIx. It is only a few mins
long. I can digitise
this and upload it to you guys.
Is anyone interested in this?
My question is what's the best format? I can
do AVI or MPG or Divx,
I don't think I can do MOV. I can grab at
full DVD quality but
obviously the file will be huge. What final
file size would people
be happy to download, 5MB? This is the Yahoo file
upload limit any
way. Perhaps someone with an FTP server will
allow me to upload it
there - any takers?
I don't want to deny Mac users either. Divx
is the best quality for
size. http://www.divx.com/
Sorry for the questions.
If I get no replies, I'll just go ahead and do a
best guess and
upload the result to the files section.
Regards
