Akai S1000 / S1100 samplers

Hi,

Yes, the effects are standard on an S1100. The final S1100 O.S. is 
4.30. I don't know if the S1000 OS would work but I wouldn't think it 
necessary at all. 

The S1100 also came standard with different A/D D/A converters than 
the S1000, an SCSI board, and 8 output board with effects send/return 
loop possibility..although this function doesn't work if using the 
digital output.

I've also read about the HD recording after version 2.0 which Akai 
did charge for when it was first released. The final O.S is 4.30 and 
can be loaded via floppy or zip if you don't have the eproms of the 
final version. Version up kits are still out there too. I have a zip 
and cd-rom connected via SCSI, but no HD. So I can't comment about 
that part. Hope this has helped a bit.
