It depends on your application of the sampler and how you plan to use it.
From a standpoint of support and sample library the S1100 might be best.
It should allow you to do SCSI Sample dumps from your PC or MAC. (Lot faster then the 4bit MIDI transfer rate). Editing features would probably be in favor of the S1100.
Support ?? Ensoniq was acquired by Creative Labs so you won't see any
additional products or updates.
Now the ASR-10 comes in a keyboard format so that might be a plus for you.
The ASR also comes with a built in 16 track sequencer and a 2 track audio
recorder. The ASR will automatically span your sample across the keyboard.
It may not have as many editng features as the AKAI but you might find it easier to use. The ASR has a phat factory set of basses.
In summary you can't go wrong with either one. If you are just starting out I would
get the ASR because it gives you the sequencer, Sampler & recorder. If you already got a MPC then the S1100 might be all you need.
Hope this helps

Hey
Can you guys describe to me how the s1100 sounds?
Also, I'm trying to make my mind up about buying this sampler vs. the
ASR-10, so if there are any of you out there who know how these two
compare sound-wise or in any other non-obvious way, please let me know.
Thanks!
