Akai S1000 / S1100 samplers

Many thanks - that's exactly what I wanted to know - just too bad this
seems to indicate the chip is in a LCC-type case (or PGA).. so
upgrades would be a bit more difficult to manage.

However - I could still try to supply it with some "backup" processors
- maybe abusing the expansion/option card slots, or trying to
piggy-back a module to some locations of the DIL-case-chips, which use
the adress space & the data-bus of the CPU to the most.

I'd love to write some routines for fast,resonance-capable filters,
however - this will require either additional horsepower (in form of
CPUs or DSPs) - or I'll have to stick with "real" analog filter circuits.

Also re-doing the user-interface a bit (for which most likely the V50
is responsible) - and adding some horse-power to this is a goal I want
to achieve.

But first I have to buy a S1100 :-) - I have one offer for 159 bucks -
that seems to be ok.


Cheers
-Jan
