Fairlight CMI IIX Page R demo and overview - The worlds most important sequencer?
The Fairlight CMI was the worlds first commercial sampler, but in the context of how it changed music, probably the most important part was Page R. The video and audio seem out of sync sometimes. Maybe I'll realign if time allows. Sorry! This is an awful piece of musical creation on my CMI IIx, but it hopefully shows you how Page R works and I also offer an overview of the other pages available on the CMI system. For nerds only! My IIx used to belong to Kim Wilde and has been restored by Jean-Bernard Emond in France. An amazing machine and so much fun. The "musical" example here is just that, an example. Hopefully I will post some more musical adventures in the future.
