CD sales have indeed dropped, but that has NOTHING to do with whether they use a Fairlight, Emulator, S6000, Prophecy, Fusion or whatever. It\u2019s because music piracy is up, downloads are the preferred medium and the industry is on a downturn in general. It has nothing at all

As I said , FORGET all the old Fairlight Presets as "orch3" they are outdated , overused and pure crap. Fairlights have a quality of sound that is still actually unsurpassed --- In Fairlight-CMI@yahoogroups.com, Hallvard Tangeraas wrote: > > I'm not going to add more heat to this

Recording Fairlight in a protools is a no sense; just like copying a HD DVD on a VHS. Do you know what multiplexing is ? Emu II and III were great despite a sound less punchy than the Fairlight. Emu 4 has just an anemic sound.Only the filter are ... interesting. Depeche Mode used

The Depeche Mode sound is based more upon old analog synthesizers than samples. The lush strings, beds, leads, and musical bleeps and blips aren't samples, they are real ARP, Moog, Roland, EMS, Oberheim, and other Modular synths. They did use the Emulators a lot (mostly EII), Fai
2006-12-15 by paradyse_james
Emu has nothing in common with Fairlight sounds, dynamic is poor. I only use my emu when I need more polyphony. I also noticed a big problem with emu and soft samplers: more you add voices , less it sounds good. Thanks to the multiplexing technology; THE big disease for sound qua

Well, when you already own a Fairlight ( and they are hundreds to be owned :)) you don' t care about the price or the weight ! If It' s there , in your studio, you just need to move your hand to use it. How did you established that nobody use the fairlight anymore ? Every week I

Now, if only someone would take the time to resample the Fairlight Series III Library. I know that this will be a gigantic task. I recently converted the complete Emulator II sample library from 5 1/4 floppies to AIFF files, sample dumping them from an Oberheim DPX-1 into Alchemy

2006-12-13 by Peter Connelly
I agree. The quality of the Fairlight is unique, but whether the samples are used in a track directly recorded from a Fairlight or a program, such as Kontakt, using a CD / DVD library (recorded with lab precision), I doubt anyone would be able to 'really' tell the difference. The

The sound of the Fairlight CMI III is quite unique and nothing else compares to it. The AD/ DA's and Filtering are what make this instrument so exceptional. I've owned nearly every sampler made and have never been able to port or sample CMI sounds directly into another sampler an

I think it's safe to say that the possibility of the Series III library becoming availible does not exist in the near future. The reason for this is the fact that poeple still buy Series III's because of their library (and other abilities). At this point in time, the library can'
