Sound of the moon a professional user from uk/somerset writes:

I bought my s1000 with 32 meg upgrade and so far i haven't had a problem with it at all only the loop edit functions are a bit scatty and not being able to assign the 8 outputs yet is a bit of a bind . On the whole brilliant reproduction of sound after sampling even in mono which my s01 also does very well so a very good addition to my studio especially with pads

I just read Nubey's review he claimes to have 12db/oct filters in his S1000,strange I got 18db/oct LPF in it.

It's a sampler Jim,but not as we know it.

I think the S1000 is the best sampler for starters (even pro's have a hard time to part with this thing), for the money (200$) there is no alternative.

Mine is equiped with 10 Mb and SCSI card. It got good sound quality,reasonable editing features and 8 individual outs!

Just as a drummachine (drumsampler) imagine the possibilities.

I use mine for "spoken word" "rain" "thunder&lightning" and other atmosphere sound.

Next thing is sampling some drummachines,with 10 Mb you can load up to 100 drum samples in this baby!

PROS: Cheap,good sound quality,good features.

CONS: RAM update is expensive, menues are bit fuzzy (but not that bad).

If you can get it:

With one option up to 200$

Several options up to 350$

Buy it! (2 Mb standard is no option unless it comes with a HD or CDROM)
