Akai S1000 / S1100 samplers

Hi,

The S1100 has more features which were targetted towards professional 
studio's (SMPTE, XLR digital out,HD recording...) so I don't think 
they are very usefull at this moment. Besides that it included some 
cards like SCSI wand optical in/out which were optional for the 
S1000. Most S1000's will have a scsi card by now - probably not the 
digital in/out which is very practical if you want to sample from a 
cd.
I think you can go for the S1000 as long as it has a working scsi card
( try with a hard disk - not a cdrom) and enough RAM. One of the  
members of this list has a company selling these extension cards - in 
case you need them. Give the sampler a try if you can and let us know.

Regards,
Frank
