Fairlight CMI series III

via this auction
"The system has the latest 9.34 software, has 16 voices, colour graphics card, digital sampler and 24 output router. It also comes with the later MFX alpha-numeric keyboard and mouse, and a 15” LCD screen is included (not the one shown in the pictures). Instead of the usual 14 Mbytes RAM memory fitted as standard from the factory, this unit has a brand new 32 Mbyte card, which is the maximum possible in these systems. There is no music keyboard, however any MIDI keyboard or external computer/sequencer will work brilliantly. There are 3 MIDI ports in, and 4 out.

The 4 Gbyte internal disc is full of the following libraries:
Complete Fairlight library, Prosonus Strings, Brass, Percussion, Sound
Genesis strings, plus many libraries collected over the last 20 years
dealing with top producers and musicians. These include libraries from: Pet
Shop Boys, Trevor Horn, Hans Zimmer, Frankie goes to Hollywood, Art of Noise and many, many others. The complete Fairlight IIX library is also included.

An external empty 4 Gbyte hard disc, with spare system softwares can also be supplied for a minimal additional cost.

The system will be serviced, have a full set of manuals, all leads, latest firmware, and come with 3 months warranty.

Please note you’ll see other Fairlight systems advertised, and many will less expensive. However, do some research before you buy. What may look like a bargain might not look so appealing when its obsolete parts finally give up. This applies specially to earlier systems. This system is complete, fully functional, and will work straight out of the box. I worked as product specialist and studio manager at Fairlight in Sydney during most of the 1980s, and have been involved in re-building Fairlight CMIs for over 25 years. I have sold and supported well over 30 of these classic samplers. If you are in any doubt, please type “Peter Wielk Fairlight” into the worlds favourite search engine and see what comes out."

Crumar Stratus - Vintage Polyphonic Analog Synthesizer

images via this auction

"This is a somewhat rare Crumar all analog polyphonic synth from around 1983. It features 49 keys, 6 voices, 2 oscillators, and supposedly uses the same chips as some other desirable poly synths from the era.

You can read more about the Stratus at synthmuseum.com and listen to some demo sounds via keyboardmuseum.com. The demo is very faithful to the kinds of tones you can dial in with the stratus."
