Akai S6000 User Manual

10 Version 1.21
INTRODUCTION s5000 / s6000
S5000 FRONT PANEL
Although laid out differently to accommodate the ergonomics of the S5000’s 3U panel, the keys
and controls on the S5000 are almost identical to the S6000’s except that the S5000 omits the
USER KEYS.
Another difference is that the S5000 does not have rear panel analogue audio inputs so the ones
found on the front of the S5000 are the main analogue record inputs.
It is also not possible to install an optional removable drive on the S5000’s front panel.
S5000 REAR PANEL
Again, the S5000’s rear panel is almost identical except that there are no balanced XLR inputs or
outputs and outputs 9-16 are optional.
