Don't forget the Fairlight is a sampler and not just a sample playback device, so the sounds it can produce aren't limited. Also bear in mind the sound quality is outstanding because of it's expensive hardware and the filters are simply fantastic, so anything you spit out of the

Vangelis has used many instruments for string sounds, including live string sections, so be careful here - they don't all come from one instrument. What you should also appreciate is that he has exceptional engineering skills as well as being a skilled musician and is therefore a

With reference to Peter's note, the PSB album 'Actually' does in fact contain a lot of SIII sounds. If it is strings you're after, the track 'It couldn't happen here' is entirely constructed from SIII string samples, which apparently took several passes on the multi-track - (the

Hi, I have a series 3 which I put modern SCSI 4 gig drives into. This enabled me to remove about 2 small fans which were used to cool the big drives which came with the series 3 originally. In fact the drive bay is big enough for 4 drives. This then leaves us with I think 6 fans

Hi Arron, I have done so successfully with various PCs. I am still planning to make time to do the same for the CMI, There are a few simple rules to follow: - The easy part: use quiet fans to begin with. - See how they operate at full speed, and whether half speed will do the coo

The CMI on eBay was located in Chicago. The information they provided upon my inquiry was kind of vague (i.e. mentioned a "light pen" and that the Library was "stock" instead of "U.S., U.K., or Australian"). Also included a sony monitor. Could have been bogus...probably was since

Hehe. If it is the same system then I really don't think it's worth £5,500. If I remember correctly, then it doesn't include a monitor or music keyboard. A Series III (rev 9.34, I think) sold for £1,200 a few months back on eBay. This just included the mainframe. P -----Original

I know this company and they seem pretty reputable. If this is the same item, then I assume the seller at Jarberry Music expected more interest from eBay (the bidding wasn't exactly overwhelming), so decided to pull it out of the auction and advertise it privately. Cheers, Peter

Someone mentioned a lithium battery when enquiring about a current/recent eBay item (Series III with 8 outs). What is this for? Time and Date, maybe? My date resets itself upon each boot, so do I need a new battery. I also noticed the Fairlight suffers from the Millenium Bug... C
