Akai X7000 Sampling Keyboard
Posted by admin | Under X7000 Sunday Jan 31, 2010
“Very rare Akai X7000 Sampling Keyboard from 1986 (yes, a sampler the same age as Calvin Harris). Beautiful crunchy 12 bit sound, degrades your noises in a very pleasing way. You can use a bitcrusher plug in, or you can get the real deal. The X7000 model (not this one) has been used by the mighty Chemical Brothers, amongst others.
PLEASE NOTE: The Disk Drive does not work, so you won’t be able to save your samples to QuickDisk (not included) – however, what you’d want to use this for is putting sounds in and resampling them straight away to your sampler or computer . It also needs a new plug on it, and comes without a manual (but it’s very simple and you can download one from this page: http://www.vintagesynth.com/akai/x7000.php).
Bought as seen. Buyer collects, West London. Cash on Collection, please.” Link
