Radikal Technologies ACC Operator Theme

via Jörg Schaaf of Radikal Technologies on Facebook

"A good synth should sound good even if all FXs are turned off. Everything comes out of a single Accelerator with one expansion card for 8 times multitimbrality. I programmed the drums, the bass and the chords with the step sequencer and played one melody line over that. I tried to recreate a section of the song 'Operator' from 'Midnight Star'..."

AKAI S5000 Sampler with SCSI Drives & USB

via this auction
"The USB allows for no hassle drag and drop of files and folders and easy backup while the 16 analogue outs combined with the FX board make for a very very powerful unit. Also if you want the older gritty sound just simply reduce the sampling rate and/or the bit quality of the samples, easy as and it processes things very quickly. You can use the filters and envelopes to create extra punch on kick and snare attacks and the modulation and routing options are very synth like. A few patches I set up were like an additive synth with something like 8x oscillators. It also has a unique sound and has a very easy to use interface...

This S5000 has the following options:
USB board.
FX board.
Extra 8x analogue out for 16x analogue out total.
256mb RAM all tested.
240 volt version.

Other items included:
Original User Manual with all amendments.
2x 64mb RAM sticks for spares all tested.
2x external fan cooled SCSI hard drive enclosures with hard drives installed. One is a 68pin Seagate 40gig, the other is a 50pin Quantum 9.1gig. Pleasse refer to the pics to see the formatted space.
1x spare 68pin SCSI Hard Drive Quantum 9.1gb.
2x 50pin SCSI external cables.
2x 50pin SCSI internal cables
1x 50pin SCSI external terminator.
2x 68-50pin SCSI internal passive adapter.
1x 68-50pin SCSI internal active adatper.

Other points:

No power leads are included.

50pin SCSI hard drives are getting hard to find but plenty of 68pin drives are around. Use the included adapters as needed if you ever need to replace a hard drive, easy as!"
