RARE Holy Grail Fairlight CMI Series III Vintage Synthesizer + Extra Keyboard
Own a piece of absolute music history. Selling a legendary Fairlight CMI Series III digital audio workstation bundle. This is the ultimate 80s sampler/synth powerhouse used by pop and movie soundtrack royalty. If you are a fan of electronic music, it was born in this machine. This is its mother.
These are incredibly rare, highly collectible, and almost never hit the open market anymore—especially with a whole extra keyboard included. Perfect dream project for a vintage synth collector, high-end studio tech, or serious sound designer.
Includes the core Series III mainframe—an absolute beast of a machine. - Comes with TWO keyboards (insanely rare bonus, massive standalone value). - Cosmetically in good vintage shape.
Disc drive and tape drive need work. Can be replaced with Blue SCSI. I’m not able to upload video of machine working on reverb but can send if needed.
