Considering the price, even nuef bought ten years ago: the Featured Articles were excellent. Many like me have done their arms through the sampling s2000.
Level converters, nothing to say is good and today. The polyphony is 32 voices, sometimes a bit tight.
I do not have the card because too much!

UTILIZATION

I used the s2000 with the miniscule screen since 1996 ... It is true that we must know by heart the tree, otherwise we galley. But after this stage, no problem. In fact I use MESA only then 1 year and I find it really useful for editing samples, or import external programs. For the prigrammes Eidt, I'm going faster and faster directly on the sampler.
In addition MESA has never been very stable, and even on windows 95.
The manual is OK if you have some basis in sampling. The sampling is a large piece of computer music requires some learning.
In fact, even today he concervé a central role Souvant my set and my compositions, only the RAM limitation is now actually disadvantageous.

SOUNDS

At her when I bought there 10 years I abientôt was taped and it is true that the editing possibilities are interesting. The filter is not bad, but since I hack around with the EmulatorX, this ruling is a bit dull. 10 years apart.

OVERALL OPINION

The most: the price and overall capacity, sound and sound banks AKAI, ease of use
Cons: RAM capacity, the need to invest in a storage unit (from this point of view I quickly opted for a zip drive and 250 is perfect), the effects (the card was expensive and not so good)
In short, excellent sampler to start and go beyond. I uitlise for 10 years and the account used for a long time.
