Akai Professional S950 - FP User's review
Honestly, I never use anything other than one-shot samples, tuning, and the occasional time-stretch, and this has all of them. Supporting modern-day 1.44 MB diskettes is nice too. Price paid: $259.9…
Akai Professional S900 - FP User's review
It was made back in the 80's , so the features it comes with are taken into consideration. The lack of upgrading memory or adding an scsi adapter really stumps this hardware sampler. These two featur…

Akai Professional MPC2000 - FP User's review
Either my note variation slider is f*cked up or I don't know how to use it. I have done with out it anyway. I wish you could resample samples or sequences onto other pads like the Roland SP-808 (whic…
Akai Professional MPC4000 - FP User's review
Haven't played with this machine yet, but if the features do all they say they do, than this is a beast of a machine. I have the Roland MV8000 and the features on this machine are sick. I hoping the …
