“This super hard to find, excellent condition AKAI S612 Rackmount Midi Digital Sampler Micro Studio System that I bought back in 1989. Includes original box and original manual. And, back then the shipper only accepted COD! I had this unit plus the MD280 disk drive (not included, but on eBay in its own auction) set-up in my studio and I used both exclusively for + 4-years. I sold it to a friend who put it in storage in ’93, and never used them. See my other listing for the AKAI MD280 Rackmount Sampler Disk Drive on eBay.
It’s super easy to use, in your studio, in your garage, or on stage to record live. The S612 was one of Akai’s first professional rack-mount samplers and it was first released in 1985.
I’ve tested the S612 and all functions work correctly. I plugged in and sampled my guitar (not included) in it, tested it with an AKAI MAX25 midi keyboard (not included). With the majority of its life in controlled climate storage and not moved around, it works great, it’s sold as-is, no guarantees, no returns.
There are a few minor surface use scratches and scrapes on the external case. All knobs are included and work fine. All channels switch up, down, etc. The sampler has the original power lead.” Click here to search for MPCs on eBay
