i have the .pdf manual found on the net if you want.
how you will use the s-900? with a midi keyboard or an SP(303,404,505,606)to trigger his samples?

probably with my sp 808, I got a pad kontrol too, i'll see which works best.

how does the sp-808 works?never know too much about it...
anyway have you got the s-900 manual? if not let me know...
other littl question:do you go with s-900 with flopy discks or what?i never read his manual...

cheers

the s900 uses floppy disks yeah, and the manual can be downloaded from the akai website.

I have found the the s950's manual is much easier to follow.

have fun with it.

thanx
i have one akai remix 16 (from 1996) it works on 16 bit, is still ok but a little ram, but it sounds good.

a little question: how much "time" exactly could you save in an 2hd floppy disc?

cheers

on a 2HD floppy, im guessing about 5 minutes? depends on the resolution and sample rate etc.
