Akai S900 and S950 with custom Operating Systems

video upload by Mike Feedback

"I developed a custom operating system for the Akai S900 and Akai S950 samplers which turns them into real-time signal processors. You can run audio through them and have them add that 12-bit grit without having to worry about sample time.

If you have an s900 or s950, download it for free:

S900FX and S950FX Anti-Alias mod

video upload by Mike Feedback

"I corrected a sample rate bug and added the ability to turn off the anti-alias filter in the latest version of S900FX and S950FX.

S900FX and S950FX are custom operating systems for the Akai S900 and Akai S950 that turn the hardware into signal processors that allow you to apply their 12-bit grit to the audio signal in real-time. Pass the audio through them and record into your modern sampler.

Get them for free." [links above]
