Re: Series III Library availability

2006-12-13 by Lee

The sound of the Fairlight CMI III is quite unique and nothing else compares to it.  The AD/
DA's and Filtering are what make this instrument so exceptional.  I've owned nearly every 
sampler made and have never been able to port or sample CMI sounds directly into another 
sampler and have them sound anywhere close to the original.  This is a testament to the 
CMI's incredible sonic quality due to its build using such high quality parts.  Whether or not 
someone releases a CMI III sample CD library is irrelevant as it will never come close to 
sound of the original.
