I am in the market for a high end sampler, and would like to know the current state of affairs regarding the s5000/6000 series. What bugs are still lingering? Has anyone used OSv2? Has anyone had the opportunity to test their new ak.sys control software?? Help, I need you experience, everyone!

where are you at? i'm selling my S6000 with FX, cheap. well, like $1750. but i'm selling it. not that it doesn't work fine, or that it's at all damaged, i just am after a different sampler and that involves selling this one. but it is nice to buy new as well.

oh, OS 2 worked fine for me last time i tried.

Nobody,contact Matt Horton there should be a link on his label's site at www.damagerecords.com he's the only other 5000 user i know and everytime i talk to him he's always whining about how he should have got the 6000.please sell it to him so he'll shut the hell up.just be firm he'll lowball you but he has a $300K setup in his living room so I know he has the flow.Make sure you disclose scratches dents and even rack screw marks to him he's a good guy but more annoying than me!He has a cherry MKS70(super jx) and PG800 I'm sure he'd love to trade into the deal.If you have access to eproms for drumulator drum traks or oberheim dx he'll almost fall over himself to get them.If you come up w/ Emulator II,mirage,prophet 2000 sounds he likes those too.The best thing is he won't screw you if you come correct.good luck.

yes, recently upgraded to new OS2 on s5, and works splendid. Although, did some rewiring shortly after, accidently wired the i/o midi plugs incorrectly, and sampler crashed hard. Almost shit my pants.. seriously now.

my experience has been that AKAI USA (ft. worth, texas) were professional-acting folk who didn't have any aversion to their job. kind of a nice change..

oh, and btw, h - i'm really trying to sell it locally. dunno why, i just feel secure doing a face to face, cash for sampler type thing.. and i found a buyer

so i ken get me .krz

Cool I don't blame you I'd be careful w/ those face to face ones also.A friend in Atlanta got his S1000 stolen at gunpoint after someone called about his add.i guess those rappers were trying to cut out the usual channel ie;rob mini mart-buy sampler-talk about their cars-then go back to moms crib on the bus;)Akai does have great support you can even bitch and yell at them and they just keep their cool.something I think we all should learn.I guess I'll have to hear Matt whine about "why did I get the 5 I should've got the 6.
