OVERALL OPINION
For nearly a year, I have not tried other harwares systems, but it was an old dream of having a AKAI sampler.
the only difficulty I encountered was a loose connection at the hard drive, for safety, I made a full copy of the DD.
I have the original invoices and it's professional equipment that I bought a studio in the area.
I think if I was in a position to buy today, I would take a mid-range model with fewer exits, because I do not really use in their capabilities.See less34 - fransyl
Good sampler
Published on 12/01/13 at 11:01 (This content has been automatically translated from French)without original hard but with a floppy obselete, and SCSI interface indicates. The only 2 weaknesses of the sampler.
UTILIZATION
Easy editing, even on the screen ... everything is possible with the S5000.
Loading very slow hard disk to use "Live"
SOUNDS
The sound is excellent
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for several years. I replaced the floppy drive with a flash card reader. It's even better than a hard drive.
Very good sampler, shame it is SCSI.23 - Zéro db
Screen friendly
Published on 03/10/12 at 10:10 (This content has been automatically translated from French)Polyphony expandable to 64 128 - Adverse optional - 8MB Memory expandable to 256MB - Edition on Mac / PC.
UTILIZATION
For configuration, there are many optional things as always with Akai.
The manual is clear. Editing is facilitated by the screen which is a real treat. There are editing on a computer even easier work.
SOUNDS
The converters are less transparent than the Z4 I have now and is less dynamic but of course quite correct.
OVERALL OPINION
I used it for 5 years, working the many samples.C was my first sampler and I sold it to buy the Z4.
I especially appreciate the large screen allowing to have a maximum of parameters under the eyes. What I regret…Read morePolyphony expandable to 64 128 - Adverse optional - 8MB Memory expandable to 256MB - Edition on Mac / PC.

I especially appreciate the large screen allowing to have a maximum of parameters under the eyes. What I regret the Z4. What I like least is that the IDE interface is not active on the motherboard, preventing to put an IDE hard drive internally.
The price / quality ratio is very good if there were any options already included in the standard version (eg USB).
At the time, I would redo this choice.See less31
