Fairlight app available today!

Post by francvania »

The long wait (in my case, just about 30 years) to have a version of the classic Fairlight is over. Well, I know it´s not the whole system, who cares...

Just for the fact that we don't have to sell the house, the car, kidneys, the wife to afford one is incredible.

Price: US$ 9.99

http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/fairligh ... 12505?mt=8

This address is from the UK store, but it is available in the US as well.

So now I can considered myself in the same league as Peter Gabriel, Alan Parsons, Jean-Michel Jarre, Thomas Dolby, Trevor Horn (Art of Noise), Geoff Downes, Stevie Wonder, Vince Clarke (Yazoo), Peter Gabriel, Paul McCartney, Devo, Jan Hammer, Herbie Hancock, David Gilmour, Brian Wilson, Eurythmics, Mike Oldfield, Prince, OMD, Steve Winwood, Duran Duran, Kate Bush, Keith Emerson, Pet Shop Boys and Stewart Copeland??? Well. not yet, but who knows...

Like that classic song from Timbuk 3 says: "The future is so bright, I have to wear shades!"

So they're giving us a 1980's interface in 2010's? I hope it's easier to use than it looks from the pictures.

Yeah Artemiy, I agree with you, but I guess the whole idea is adapt from the the original. And from what I read, the original was very intuitive, let's see...

Perhaps this is what should be called a "retro" application. Use for a while to see how easy we have it today.
