Fairlight CMI 30A My thoughts.
2009-08-28 by antonyp69
I think the production of the Fairlight CMI 30A is a step in the right direction. $17,000 maybe steep for the majority of us, but the Fairlight CMI 30A is marketed towards the nostalgia collectors, and the cashed up elite musos such as Peter Gabriel, Nick Rhodes, Thomas Dolby, Kate Bush etc.... The good thing about this, is that the purchasers of the Fairlight CMI 30A will be subsidising any future Fairlight CMI products for the rest of us. That is, the more Fairlight CMI product sold, the lower the cost of production and therefore lower price tag. (Economies of Scale) The main benefit of the Fairlight CMI 30A? Music will sound interesting again! Cheers, Antony Melbourne, Australia
