Fairlight-CMI

Hi Thomas
S.A.W. did have a Fairlight but it sat in the corner alot of the time. Pete
could not get to grips with it and complained about paying the cost of it.
They did however sampled it alot (strange I know) and used the samples. They
used a Linn Drum with Fairlight drums sampled onto Eproms, later they used a
Linn 9000 with built in sampling and used again Fairlight libraries. I'm
nearly sure they hired a Series III and programmer on projects but not to
sure about owning one. Peter Wielk may know, he has the Series III purchase
list.
hope this helps
Regards
Colin
