Hey Rob ... it definitly wasn't a knock on you here .. And it's wonderful to see someone from your side of the fence having compassion for how the grass grows in your neighbor's field With the survival of the music biz (and its ever changing model) showing up more and more on your side of the fence you would think with such crossover that FL could see the advantage of writing this additional peice of code. How hard could it be I for one, much less quite a few others I can think of, would be slobbering all over this very cool looking piece of hardware if that were to occur.

I gotta believe there's enough people on the recording side doing work directly for post production, recording/mixing for film or otherwise, that the cross pollination would be a complete advantage .. Or is that just my frustration surfacing

It would be great if Fairlight could incorporate those features into their DAW and perhaps entice some of the music users out there. Quite ironic when you consider that their original Fairlight CMI was one of the first, if not the first, music computers used by artists such as Peter Gabriel, Herbie Hancock, etc. The computers are still being used and there is even an active yahoo group with users sharing sounds and info on a box that is around 20-25 years old!

Yes .... exceedingly ironic. And that was my initial exposure to FL. Actually worked with somebody that had one of those, on a project we did together. Incredible machines from whence my fascination of the co. grew. I still get tempted to dig one up for the sound quality alone. Perhaps some day.

All things considered, what could "We" actually do to get Fairlight to see the 2nd part of their Name. I'm convinced they could still have both sides of the coin (litterly) .. in the palm of their hand. After all, once you have the product, all you have to do is market it. And I understand it's not quite that simple but I'm willing to bet that word would spread like wildfire. After all there's a host of folk that would like see a good alternative to PT and pretty much no one else is able to pull it off. Are they afraid of the Big Bad Wolf stike

Considering FL shows up at AES where there seems to be more people on the recording side than post (just my perception .. feel free to correct me), I would have thought FL could see, there is another part of the world they could easily infiltrate, much less make a statement/impact. And I know I'm not the only one that thinks this.

Look ... It's a great co. with a great product. I just want to see it "Be all it can be" .. while working to the advantage of somebody like myself and many others.

Oh Uncle Joe .... Where are you ??
