Hi Colin,

Thank you so much for your help !!!

I think JB is planning to come to London with his wife.

Would you like to have some technical presentation during
the event ? (future projects/developments around the CMI)

Thanks again Colin for your help.

Regards.

	Laurent.

Stock Aitken and Waterman used the CMI from 1984 onwards, from what I can 
ascertain. Obviously they started with a IIx and moved on to the III. They made a lot 
of use of Elbass and the brass sounds, and a LOT of percussion. It was a vital element 
of the SAW sound.

What do other users think if this revered instrument being part of the Hit Factory?

Hi Laurent
Your offer for a technical presentation during the event would be wonderful.
Could you let me know what your thinking off.
Could you ask JB to fill in their details in the database section. I need
about 25+ people to make this worth while. I have a special guest speakers
in mind and need to show that the numbers will be there.
Regards
Colin.

Hi Thomas
S.A.W. did have a Fairlight but it sat in the corner alot of the time. Pete
could not get to grips with it and complained about paying the cost of it.
They did however sampled it alot (strange I know) and used the samples. They
used a Linn Drum with Fairlight drums sampled onto Eproms, later they used a
Linn 9000 with built in sampling and used again Fairlight libraries. I'm
nearly sure they hired a Series III and programmer on projects but not to
sure about owning one. Peter Wielk may know, he has the Series III purchase
list.
hope this helps
Regards
Colin
