Fairlight-CMI

The PPG library you are looking through would be the Waveterm B sample 
library. This library has no relation to the Wavecomputer that TD was using. 
The library is of a much later heritage.

TD used the Simmons SDS-V on record and tours, being triggered by Henry.

This has been a great way to research how music is put together.

I've been digging as far as I can into the Dolby history and it seems he was 
using a PPG Wave computer called "Henry" at them time. Henry was replaced 
with a CMI when he fatally fell down a lift shaft on a US tour! He also 
references a clap sound which was used, this was a snare drum slowed down. 
He bought a simmons module (the clap trap?) and triggered it from the PPG. 
I'm now going through the PPG library and will keep you posted as to my 
results :)

The CMI was called "Henry the second".
