DD1500 Digital Audio Workstation Modular Magneto/Optical Disk Recorder/Editor

First: Contact Your Local Akai Digital Representative

We know. Usually that suggestion is saved for the end. But if a picture is worth a thousand words, a hands-on demo is certainly worth several million. So we encourage you to stop whatever it is you're doing and call for a demo. We guarantee that in only a few minutes working with a DD1500 you'll clearly understand what sets this system apart. You'll see how easy it is to learn. How fluid it is to operate. How deliciously powerful it is. So arrange for a visit from your local Akai Digital representative. We'll wait

The DD1500 System: Greater than the Sum of its Parts

There, wasn't the demo enlightening? Now let's review some of the very important points your Akai Digital representative so expertly explained. To begin, you now know that the DD1500 is a fully modular system that can be configured for almost any audio recording and editing application. A quick look at its long list of features and you can see that the DD1500 is perfectly at home in a wide range of professional environments, from the editing suite to the foley stage to the music production studio. In fact, well over 1,000 DD1500s have already found happy homes in leading film and video production facilities around the world. A distinguishing characteristic of the DD1500 system is that it is entirely dedicated and self-contained - no external computer required. Okay. So you can't do word processing on a DD1500. You can't do spreadsheets. And you certainly can't play Doom. But you can record and edit audio cues in seconds flat. Effortlessly auto-conform to an EDL. And you can synchronize seamlessly with virtually any piece of professional post-production equipment, from a flatbed to a digital console. Of course, everybody has their own way of working. So we engineered the DD1500 to allow you to customize your system to your exact needs. With numerous expansion capabilities, the DD1500 is designed to accommodate your current and future requirements.
