Fairlight-CMI

Hi all,

Can anybody tell me the name of, and some details about the patch that 
Peter Gabriel used in "Lay Your Hands On Me"? It sounds a little like a 
BB rattling around in a can. Jan Hammer also used it at the end of his 
single version of the "Miami Vice" theme. 

There's a patch in Zero-G's recent Nostalgia software synthesizer that 
sounds similiar to it, but its speed appears off. Any other ideas on 
how to recreate this sound would be welcome. 

Thanks,

Ed

Kevin,

Thanks! Do you know of any PC-based software synthesizers that 
accurately reproduce this sound?

Ed

Hello Ed, I have Mr. Gabriel's disk used for the
tour. The sound that you are referencing is called
scrape, it appeared in the factory sound set available
from fairlight. 
 An earlier discussion about the shock the monkey
sound is actually two fairlight sounds mixed together
1)marimonk and 2) saxy2

I owned the fairlight that ardent studio owned and
used to produce ZZ Tops music with. I sold that
fairlight but keep the steaming tape library. I
currently have another Series III with a nice library
as well. I'm looking to expand my library. Whether it
be threw trade or cash purchase with others on this
group. I have both the series IIx and III. Let me know
what you have so we can each help the other spark more
creative music. I also have a ppg and synclavier
system I'd like to get more sounds for as well.
