S2000 Studio Professional Stereo Digital Sampler

The S2000 offers the same superb audio quality and programming power of the S3000 Series with a new streamlined, easy-to-use interface. But that's just the beginning. Despite its amazingly low price, the S2000 includes a SCSI interface as standard, so you can connect an external hard drive or CD ROM drive without having to buy an extra upgrade kit. The S2000 also includes Akai's MESA software, which allows graphic programming and library management from the screen of a Macintosh computer.

And unlike many other low-priced samplers, you won't easily outgrow your S2000. As your needs grow, your S2000 is designed to grow right along with them. If you need extra outputs, the optional IB-208P (Multi8/D in North America) board gives you no less than eight additional analog outputs along with S/PDIF digital I/O. Need more sound processing power? The IB-304F (ProFilter in North America) board adds an additional digital filter bank with lowpass, highpass and bandpass response as well as digital EQ and a third envelope generator.

And like the S3000XL and S3200XL, the S2000 accepts the EB16 (SampleVerb in North America) Multi Effects board, up to 16 Megabytes of non-volatile Flash Memory (V1.3~) and up to 32 Megabytes of SIMM RAM.

Of course, the S2000 is compatible with the world-renowned Akai sound library as well as Roland and E-mu Systems CD ROM libraries.

The S2000 Studio includes the Multi-8/D for 8 additional outputs and S/PDIF digital I/O, and the Sampleverb multi effects processor, which adds four effects with two multi-effects and two reverb channels.
