WOW! THIS AUCTION IS FOR AN AKAI S950 SAMPLER! GENTLY-USED / LOW-HOURS! WORKS PERFECTLY! NEAR-PERFECT ORIGINAL CONDITION - ALL BUTTONS, SLIDERS, KNOBS WORK PERFECTLY. LCD SCREEN IS NEAR-PERFECT. MINOR SIGNS OF USE ON CASING AND RAILS DUE TO RACKING. BEAUTIFUL/ORIGINAL UNIT!!!! The S-900 sampler was Akai's first truly professional sampler, released in 1986. Its sampling specifications were pro-quality at the time: 12-bit stereo sampling, 7.5kHz to 40kHz variable sampling rates and a maximum of 63 seconds of sample time at 7.5kHz. Up to 32 samples can be created and stored to disk along with any edit settings. This was one of the first rack-mount samplers to use a built-in disk drive. Although the drive could load sounds while you play, it was still a very slow process.The S-950 soon followed the S-900 and offered increased memory and sampling rates. The sample rate was now variable from 7.5 to 48kHz and it could hold up to 99 samples in memory. Memory could be expanded from 750KB to 2.25MB. The S-950 is used by Fatboy Slim, Moby, Skinny Puppy, Depeche Mode, Future Sound of London, Sneaker Pimps, The Bomb Squad, Dr. Dre, DJ Premiere, Prince Paul, Vangelis, Digable Planets and A Guy Called Gerald .
