I will keep trying Peter. MIDI was an option (and a rather expensive one back then too!). There is a CMI28 card that is put in the mainframe card cage and a box that fits on the back of the unit which houses a CMI29 card. --- In Fairlight-CMI@yahoogroups.com, "Peter" wrote: > > I

I thought the IIx had MIDI as standard, or was this an option which 'most' people took? Keep trying Pete, you will get a response. Last time I spoke to him he was run off his feet with work. Cheers, Peter --- In Fairlight-CMI@yahoogroups.com, "kar_chicago" wrote: > > I am conside

I am considering upgrading my IIx with MIDI capability. Does anyone have the parts available? I have emailed Peter Wielk a couple of times but get no response. Any leads are appreciated.

Hi Peter, I was reading some articles to do with Peter Vogel and Fairlight CMI's. One of the links stated that the CMI in 1979 cost anywhere between £30,000 & £120,000. Is this true? If so, does anyone know what the basic unit consisted of and what the optional extras were to boo
2005-02-16 by feldmann@xs4all.nl
Most likely the amount of memory would heavily increase the price. Probably also diskspace. In 1979 a megabyte of memory cost 10,528 Dollars (1979 dollars, that is). Read all about it at http://www.jcmit.com/memoryprice.htm Or search google with 'memory' 'price' '1979' Regards, H

Peter, I would recommend you always check the formatted disks for errors, you are storing your system files on it. It HAS to be flawless. Think of the enormous amount of extra time it will cost you to attempt to recreate the disks in case of one failed sector.. Regards, Harald. >

This will probably be about right then, as 8" drives aren't SCSI as far as I know. Also, After doing several discs, I noticed that the disc doesn't take very long to format (1 minute say), but the verification and checking of good sectors takes up all the time. If this is the cas
