Fairlight-CMI

I'm posting this as a responce to comments left on The Holmes Page 
recently. Over the last few years a number of postings have been 
made concerning the number of CMI's Worldwide. (Series I II IIx IIL 
III) I've wanted to do a Worldwide database for a long time now and 
at last I've started a survey on the database page on this forum. 
Like many others I've often woundered how many of these amazing 
instruments are still left working or not working worldwide. So at 
last this database may answer that questions. Please take time to 
fill in the details and answer best you can. If anyone would like me 
to help them with this please email me. If you have more that one 
Fairlight please please repeat this process. Serial numbers is also 
important as we can track the history for years to come, and if you 
could fill all details in or as much as possible. Be proud of what 
you own.
Some new features will soon appear on the forum which I know will 
appeal to everyone. I am still talking to a few people to make this 
happen and details of this will appear hopefully soon. 
The Fairlight community on the forum is increasing rapidly and I 
would like to give a big warm welcome to all new members. The bigger 
this community gets the better it will be for the forum. Sharing is 
a big gold I have for everyone on the forum. 
I really want to start a sample page on the forum, were you can 
download samples over the internet or a Worldwide postal service 
which will not be profit making. A couple of members of the forum 
are helping me on this MAJOR GOLD. I personally will be putting alot 
of time, efford and samples on this forum and on my up and coming 
web page which has 200MB of sample space available. I want to change 
the samples as much as possible starting this on a quartely year 
basis or less if possible. I need all your help on this by supplying 
samples, any samples..... when available. A email will be sent to 
all members when new sound are available. 
I hope to have Fairlight samples in wave format, for member who have 
not got a Fairlight but love this instrument. We have a few members 
at present.
I plead to all member who have any manuals, News Letters, Brouchers 
and any Fairlight related document in PDF or photocopy or will copy 
their manual into PDF please please get in touch via my email 
address 
colin.a.ross@btopenworld.com
as these will be also be listed for any member to download.
Best and kind regards
Colin
