Fairlight-CMI

Hello,

 Well I do remember a very experienced CMI 3 user saying that the older
Analog output boards without the sample & hold daughter board actually had
more character when playing sounds from the CMI 3 library. I have yet to do
an A/B comparision between the two ! There is supposed to be more aliasing
resulting in more " graininess " in the sound.

Regards,

James
