Hello all, My IIx is in desperate need of a replacement CMI-02 master card or if anyone out there had mad skills in repairing them I'm open to that option as well. It's really an odd thing at this point...the IIx will boot into QDOS (and with the Utility Disks that Alexander from

I saw a discussion here (a friend did cut / paste the things being written) about my refill Fairlight CMI Legacy for Reason. I can just say that I got approval from Fairlight AU and Fairlight Instruments (Peter Vogel himself) to use the samples. We recorded all samples ourselves

Restoring a CMI, bit of a long term project, and wondered if anyone had any Mk II spares? In particular my alpha keyboard is missing some keys, actually they have been completely removed, so any ideas for replacements? The 'mainframe' is also in a bad way. If anyone has a spare M

The clock connector is Dinsync. The Sync ( on the midibox ) connector is actually 4 different outputs with a common ground, fed from the syncinput through 6840 timers to divide the incoming clock. Read the servicemanual for more info. WT ----- Original Message ----- From: "elanb"

the sync plug is the same as din sync? that sounds way too easy. is it a pulse output that comes out the sync jack? i could hack up a midi cable and try it but i want to see if that's what's actually coming out the fairlight. --- In Fairlight-CMI@yahoogroups.com, "WT" wrote: > >

Thanks Rob, Peter's pdf appears to be of the blue library, because it is not the same as the pink library. As far as I can make out, neither library contains this "Old Strings" sound. So how did it come to be so widely used? It's almost as ubiquitous as Sararr/ Arr1. Incidentally

Actually I'm probably wrong. Was the CMI series 1 released with a library? Seems unlikely. If anyone has a link to a list I'd appreciate it. There was a pdf that Peter Weilk made of the library after he organised it. Does anyone know where it is? Thanks. :) --- In Fairlight-CMI@y

Apart from Saxy and (possibly) the string sound in question, Jarre obviously made his own samples. He did not use many library sounds on that record, because there wasn't really a library yet. What else would one do with one of the very first Fairlights? :) So... does anyone know

There are TWO versions of the IIx factory library: Blue & Pink ( so named because of the color of the labels ). They're mostly the same, but there are some differences too. When I made the sample CD of the library it was mostly from the pink one. Sorry can't help you more. -----
