But the whole point Blixton, is that Peter is modelling this in the CC-1
FPGA card which is an immensely powerful card that can more than easily
recreate to the tiniest detail an old Fairlight.

 

Seriously, I don't think Peter would even entertain the idea if he couldn't
faithfully recreate the CMI in all it's glory and infinite character. So I
think we can all rest assured that it will sound the same. Of course, there
will be the anally retentive oscilloscope brigade who will analyze it's
output to the n'th degree so that they can jerk each other off claiming they
have found a flaw. F*ck 'em! ;o)

meh, but it won't sound the same. We like these old temperamental beasts 
cause they have character.
