You get my point though - it's unhelpful to make sweeping > generalisations ;-) Hi Gordon. Ah, OK, I missed the implication of the ;). Too subtle for me! ;) Maybe use [sarcasm] [/sarcasm] instead?

Come on Gordon, it is not reasonable, humourous or helpful to compare a huge well established corporation manufacturing a globally in demand product with Fairlight, a company that sold, what, less than 400 units? In a niche market over ten years. It shows a complete lack of under

Just to address what I see as the key issues here... a) If I knew where to get lightpens I'd be happy to share that information. I haven't actually been looking as they will only work with CRT displays and the new CMI uses an LCD, so I have not been looking for lightpens that wou

Hi, Peter. Thanks for your reply to my email. I think you come across a lot better in this one. My own impression of Peter Vogel is that he does care about the Fairlight and its history. If he didn't, he wouldn't have replied to my question about the dog sample with details of th

Peter K, I find the tone and style of your message deplorable. Peter V is under no obligation to develop for or support a 25 year old system. My God, what other equipment can you think of that is still supported in any form that is 25 years old? Cars of the same vintage fall into

Andrew, Thanks for your reply. First of all, my frustration is not just to keep my CMI working, but also to preserve these instruments (not just mine!) for future generations. Until now, I never had any negative thoughts about Peter Vogel. The NAMM video's and the development of

In reply to Peter K: Regarding the lightpen, Peter Vogel has commented on the difficulties they've had in sourcing these. It seems likely that he didn't offer any help on this issue in the past because he didn't have a source for them without committing to buy stock in bulk. The

Another question for the group: Is there anything in particular you would be sure to test when evaluating a IIx? Obviously I'm not expecting it to be perfect after 27 years, but are there any red flags - common problems that are difficult to fix or impossible to find parts for? T
