“A beautiful AKAI S1000PB – Playback sampler
Own a piece of history. The S1x00 line from akai has been used on hundreds of hit songs since the late eighties, and or good reason… they have awesome warm yet clear sound quality!
Argued by many to be the best sounding sampler akai ever made.

Condition is very nice, as you can see in the photos.
There are some slight signs of wear, small scratches, a few bumps on the top cover, but overwall in nice working condition, once it’s in your rack it really looks spotless!

From a smoke-free and pet-free home
Never gigged
Tested, fully working
Brand new backlight installed!” Link

Additional photos in the listing show the SCSI Interface is installed.

“This is the S1000 “Play Back” Model. Turns on as should. Cosmetically in great shape. Has a low display like most s1000′s you see today. Didnt have a disk to test unit for full functionality. Owner informed me that its a working unit.” Link

“These are 4 memory boards are in excellent condition and were hardly used if at all. I think they are 2MB cards not 8MB but unsure. Assume they are 2MB.

For Akai S1000 series sampler memory.” Link

“Display leuchtet, ansonsten ungeprüft.” Link

Much cheaper alternative for backlights if you aren’t in a rush as these ship from China.

“Unused (New) EL lamp.

Lighting area (dimension): 12.7 cm (5″) x 3.4 cm (1.35″).

Runs on by power inverter or similar device. (See also the inverter we’re selling on ebay!)

Light is GREEN (slightly blue, see picture below).

In light green when not glowing.

Can be bent or cut in any shape.” Link

“Dieser Akai S 1000 PB ist der Kult Sampler, und liegt hier in der PLAYBACK ( Also PB Version ) vor, er hat lange Jahre, bis heute einschliesslich unglaubliche Dienste geleistet……

Bis zu diesem Jahr war er verantwortich für viele Produktionen im Bereich des deutschen Schlagers…… Vintage PUR, Volle Sounds und viiiiiiiiiiiel Druck……

dazu gebe ich über 100 Disketten mit ausgewählten Sounds ab, von Bassdrums, bis zu gesampleten Pads, und Instrumenten

Sehr erlesene Sounds, zum grossen Teil selbst gesamplet auf dem grossen Bruder S 1000

Allein diese Sound Kollektion ist sehr wertvoll und teuer ” Link

“Akai S1000PB sample playback machine for parts or repair. Unit powers up as pictured but appears to be missing 1 or more plug in boards at the rear of the unit. Maybe options? I don`t know. Unit is dirty. It is sold as-is as shown for parts or repair. It is from a closed recording studio. ” Link

“Classic AKAI S-1000PM sampler. Fully Maxed RAM !!!!!!!
THIS IS NOT A SAMPLER, ONLY PLAYS BACK SAMPLES OR ROM DISK.
I HAVE THE 4.4 OS DISK TO BOOT UP THE OS, I SHOULD HAVE 4.4 ROM CHIPS LAYING IN BOX (NEVER INSTALLED THEM)

NOTE: THE DISK DRIVE IS SUPER FUNKY NEEDS REPLACED, WHEN IT WORKS, THE MACHINE WORKS FINE. (BASICALLY FOR PARTS UNLESS YOU WANT TO REPLACE THE FLOOPY DRIVE).” Link

“8 MB ERWEITERUNGSKARTE FÜR SAMPLE RAM DES AKAI S1000 und AKAI S1100

Die 8 MB Speichererweiterung ist sowohl neu als gebraucht nur noch schwer zu bekommen und mit einem Neupreis von ca. 150 Euro zu dem “schweineteuer”.

Diese Speicherkarte ist original von MU-TECH** und funktioniert fehlerfrei! Sie stammt aus meinem S1100 Sampler.” Link

The card the seller was unable to identify is a 2MB RAM card.

“This is a Lot of 4 Akai Option Cards. These all came out of an S1000 Sampler. You are getting an AES/EBU digital I/O card, SCSI card, 8MB memory card, and one card that did not say what it was for ?? See picture of what you are getting. Read details below before bidding.

Cosmetics-Cards are clean overall but are untested. They were generally protected inside the unit before I pulled them out. The SCSI card is missing one of its holding clips/screw for the cable plug connector.

Operational Condition-Untested. I did not have anyway to check them out. The machine they were pulled from had a bad display. When the AES/EBU card was installed the optical ports did come on. Untested beyond that. Sold AS IS. No returns.

Includes the four cards only. Nothing else is included. ” Link

“Pour Collectionneur, vends lecteur de samples AKAÏ S1000PB (attention, ce n’est pas un sampleur, la différence avec le S1000 est qu’on ne peut que lire des échantillons) + câble SCSI + nombreuses disquettes de sons.” Link

Each board is 2MB. Either the seller had issues with the MB on his sampler, or some of these modules may be bad or were incorrectly installed.

“These are RAM boards pulled from an old AKAI S1000 sampler. The sampler was having issues and I stupidly discarded it, but kept the memory boards. So if you have an S1000 lying around with empty slots, take advantage of this opportunity.

I’m no longer sure of the capacity of these boards. I think they are 512Kbytes apiece. I faintly remember the S1000 saying “2Mwords” on bootup when all boards were plugged in.

I don’t know if these will work in any other model other than an S1000.” Link

“Up for sale is an Akai IB103 SCSI Interface Board for the Akai S1000/ S1000PB sampler. This board was included in a “lot purchase” with some other Akai gear (see my other items for sale for an Akai ASK90 board). As far as I can tell, this board has never even been installed in a unit. It looks absolutely brand new, and still has the original packaging completely intact, including foil over the entire board. I was told it was acquired by the previous owner as excess stock being sold off from a music store. I do not own an Akai S1000, so I am unable to test the unit, but I can’t imagine that it doesn’t work perfectly. That said, item is being sold as is. The unit comes in the original box with the original manual and disk. The original price for $275 is marked on the box.

This board allows you to connect your Akai S1000 to a hard disk or ZIP drive, greatly enhancing sample storage capabilities.” Link

“You Are Bidding on a Akai professional Midi Stereo Digital Sampler model S1000PB. This unit had two owners. The first owner had it in his recording studio since he bought it in the 1980s. I then got it from him and played around with it for a short time. This unit is in working order. I don’t fully understand all of its functions but what I understand this was quite the cutting edge technology back in the day for sound sampling.

I will be including a couple copies of the operating system files to a disk with this unit. There is a Readme file on how to use the disk. I will also include a copy of the user manual(made from a .pdf version) and the .pdf version I have on a CD rom.” Link

“Vintage AKAI S1000PB. This unit has been fully tested and is in excellent working condition. The LCD is in great working condition (blue backlight is very dim/though is still legible as-is/day or night. The 3.5″ floppy drive/ all buttons/ SCSI/ outputs/ and midi are all working as they should. The S100PB also functions as a digital synthesizer, having SINE/SQUARE/SAWTOOTH/PULSE waveforms built-in. The S100PB is basically an S1000 without the sampling capabilities, much like EMU’s EIIIxp product. AC line not included. Rack ears will be included, and will be removed for safest shipping. The S1000PB would also serve well as a parts unit for an S1000 sampler: floppy drive/IC chips/etc..” Link

This auction is for a single 8 mb memory card expansion for use in an Akai s1000 or s1100.
It was made by a third party company, called MAARTISS, which was one of the most popular companies making
after market memory expansions for samplers and synthesizers in the 1980s through the 1990s.

This memory expansion was pulled from a working unit. It has been tested and is guaranteed against D.O.A.” Link

“Optisch gut erhalten bis auf Einbauspuren wie auf dem Bild
zu sehen ist, Gerät ist nicht komplett geprüft da ich keine
Disketten besitze, er geht an und lässt sich komplett bedienen.
Der Kontrast vom Display ist etwas schlapp so das dieser
fast voll aufgedreht werden muss. Ist aber ein bekanntes
Akai-Problem. Eingebaut ist einen SCSI-Karte.
Als Zubehör gibt es leider nur das Netzkabel.
Vielleicht kann noch jemand etwas damit anfangen ” Link

Additional pictures in the listing show the SCSI expansion is installed.

“Der hier angebotene AKAI S1000 PB (“Play Back”) ist voll funktionstüchtig und wurde

ausschliesslich in einem Nichtraucher-Studio benutzt. Die Gebrauchsspuren sind minimal.

Nur der Lautstärkeregler “kratzt” etwas beim Drehen.

Das Gerät wird inklusive Rackbefestigungen und 2 AKAI Sound-Disketten angeboten.

Die Sounds auf den Disketten dürften aus den späten 80er Jahren stammen: warme Synth-Streicher, Analoge Bässe aber auch harte “digital-Klänge” – teilweise Technoartig.

Ein paar Samples der legendären Roland TR 808 Rhythmusmaschine sind ebenfalls dabei.” Link

“Aus Studioauflösung verkaufe ich hochwertiges Studioequipment. Alle Geräte sind ausnahmslos im Studio verwendet worden und haben teilweise Gebrauchsspuren an den Rackbefestigungen oder Kratzspuren auf den Ober – und Unterseiten. Technisch sind die Geräte TOP.

In dieser Auktion geht es um einen AKAI S 1000 PB Sampleplayer mit zusätzlichem Syquest Wechselplattenlaufwerk incl. 1 Sound-Cartridge” Link

“top rare Akai S-1000/1100 SCSI panel.

- Tested, working, top condition.

“This item up for auction is a vintage AKAI S1000PB, circa 1989. This is a sample playback unit only, without the digital sampling part built in. It has all the other functions of a standard S1000, including programme set up etc. It has eight separate outs on the back, which all work, plus mono/ stereo outputs. Also set out on the back is midi in/out/thru. There is some effects send/return plugs also.

This item would be perfect for a vintage collector, or anyone with a midi setup, as it is 100% working, having been fired up and fully tested. It had been set up in a smoke free studio for a few years, but the studio had to be pulled down, due to the arrival of children, the studio room was turned into a child’s bedroom.
It had been sitting in my loft, in a black dustbin liner, ever since.

One thing I have to add is that the contrast on the screen is a little weak, it is viewable, but you have to look straight at it. But cosmetically, it is in very good nick. The lettering on the front panel is still very bright and clear, without any scratches or marks. I always used soft fingers on this unit, so all buttons and knobs still feel quite sturdy to the touch. This unit is backward compatible, meaning it will play S900/S950 samlples also.” Link
