Akai Pro S 2000

Available from 10/01/1995 until 01/01/2002
The S-2000 is a professional and user-expandable studio sampler. The base S-2000 model comes with 2MB sample memory which can be expanded to 32MB. Sampling specs are variable from 22kHz to 44.1kHz sample rates in stereo or mono and at 16- or 8-bit resolutions. All the necessary edit tools are here: time comp/exp, tune, pitch shift, truncate, looping, key placement, velocity effects and more. Up to 32 voices of polyphony, complete MIDI implementation, a built-in disk drive and a SCSI interface prepare this sampler for any situation.
Extended information
Upgrade the S-2000 as your needs grow. Up to eight outputs, digital I/O, four effects processors, expanded filters, EQ, and alternate internal disk storage mediums can be added to the S-2000 making it more and more like an S-3200 series sampler. The S-2000's only fallback is its small LCD display screen, but that can be bypassed via an external editor. The S-2000 makes the perfect entry-level studio quality sampler that can grow with you into a very professional instrument.
