Re: [Fairlight-CMI] Looking for a sound

The Dolby sub-sound noise sound is most likely from from an old Simmons clap trap...I'm sure because I owned one and it makes all kinds of noises other than claps which didn't really sound like claps at all.

That sound is from the micromoog. It is just filtered noise.

Dolby didn“t use the CMI on One of our submarines.

Gives me a good place to start. I did a search through the IIx library and
couldn't find it, so I suppose it must be I or II.
I've had a go at reproducing it without much luck so far :)
