Hi All. You don't mention what you're trying to sync to, but I assume it's a recorded track. Why not use SMPTE code? - that what it was designed for. In the old days, we "striped" (recorded) code on track 24 on the 2" tape, (which the IIX can generate). Then you just set up the R

I know the standard Hard Drive for the Fairlight III is a Seagate 4 gig drive. I'd like to use a bigger drive is possible. What are the drive options that any of the user's here have successfully used. Hard Drive Make, Model, Pin Selector, etc?

You can connect a standard serial mouse (RS232 on DB9 connector). On my MFX3 I used an old Logitech serial trackball. No protools standard pinout on the dsub connectors. Ciao Fabio --- Mar 1/5/12, ataritt ha scritto: Da: ataritt Oggetto: [Fairlight-CMI] How to connect the polypho

I recall popping out the plunger of the solenoid and oiling it up with something a bit lighter than the road tar that was in it a few years ago in a IIx I bought. The problem that causes is that the pull-in tries to load the heads onto the floppy, but it takes so long to pull in

Hi Karel, I've not used a router myself yet, but just to clear some of the other points, If you use the 16 balanced outputs, they are momophonic, so if you want a string sound using 6 voices it will use 6 physical outputs. To create multi-timbral setups, you have to create an ins

Hi Kirk. You can format floppies using this QDOS disk, but be aware there are two types of format. For example, the format used for system discs is the "new" format, whilst for the blank sounds disks it is "old". The old format maintains sounds disk compatibility between the IIX
