Akai s2000 User Manual

INTRODUCTION
S2000 Operator’s Manual - Version 1.30 Page 5
ABOUT THIS MANUAL
This manual has been written to allow you to get the most out of your new sampler. Please take
the time to read it as a fuller understanding of the instrument will enable you to use the
S2000’s remarkable facilities to the full. Not only are the controls and screens explained in
detail but you will find hints and tips to help you with your sampling and programming. If you are
new to sampling or synthesisers, some of the sections explain the basic principles behind the
techniques employed in the S2000 so if words like ”bandpass”, “modulation”, “multi-timbral”
and “sample rates”, etc., are unfamiliar to you, we hope that this manual is not just a boring
explanation of functions but something you can refer to for information beyond the scope of
the S2000. Even if you’re a seasoned programmer, we hope that there is information in this
manual that you find useful.
