Well, the thing is different when a friend makes a few samples from his CMI 
so you can use them in your music, but what _you_ ask is different.
Fairlight samples are copyrighted, that means they ought not to be widely
distrubuted among there who don't have CMIs- I can pass you mine,
because their quality isn't comparable to original recorging (no offence 
Peter :) ), but note they're still not on my Fairlight site- for a reason.

There are several CDs to be bought, containing CMI IIx library and several 
sIII samples.
