Re: [Fairlight-CMI] Series IIx or Series III

2003-10-17 by James Thomson

Hi Kevin,

 I own both a CMI 11X and CMI 111 instruments. I didn't get a very complete
library with my 11X. Do you have the complete Peter Wielk 1.2 library for
the 11X ? Where are you located ? I would love to copy this library from
you. Perhaps if I pay you for your time and I supply the disks would you be
able to copy the library for me?
 Regarding the sound comparisons with the 11X library. I haven't actually
a-b'd the 11X and 111 as I am waiting to setup both instruments in a new
studio space. I currently have the series 111 which I have recently updated
with new 4 gig drives. The main thing I miss so far from the 11X is being
able to have some functionality on the computer keypad and being able to
move the loop in real time while playing a sound.
 I hope all is well!

Regards,


James Thomson
