I have spent a fair amount of time on the phone and via email with Fatar, and it does seem to be the case that the keys were not used in other products and are also no longer available. Boy do I wish that were not the case! -Bob ________________________________ From: Fairlight-CM

Hi, I am sure that these Fatar keys must have been used in some other manufacturer\u2019s keyboards. I just wish we had a contact at Fatar who could enlighten us. I find it hard to believe that they would have done one design for the CMI keyboard only. Cheers, James Thomson On 28

Hi David, Could you get in touch if you are not using both of your music keyboards. I have a fine working MFX2 system, but the music keyboard I managed to pick up from another user is hopelessly unrepairable, (mainly due to the Fatar keys not being produced anymore). Thanks, Bob_
