Re: Pro Rec Sample CD-anyone?

2008-02-13 by Tomás

This CD gives each library sound twice, one in a low register and one
in a high register. The trick I think is to use only the low one.
Playing it on an ESI4000, you get the sound of a Fairlight that's been
enhanced with processing, and with some of the transposing magic built in.

It's missing some of the cooler CMI sounds, such as the bowed strings,
and all the samples were recorded with the anti aliasing filter
switched in, so they don't have that biting Marshall stack type sound
that the CMI can do.

It looks like the Pro Rec version linked to there does not include the
booklet. I'd be willing to sell mine with the booklet if anyone's
interested.
