Akai DPS-16 Digital Multitrack Recorder / Mixer with Effects

Excellent quality 16-track all-in-one recorder. Records in various uncompressed formats from 16 bit 44.1k up to 24 bit 96k. Has very good preamps (8 inputs, 2-mic/line combo and 6 line) plus hi-z guitar input. 16 recording tracks plus hundreds of virtual tracks for alternative takes and submixes etc. Good eq and effects - this unit has the EB4M effects board upgrade which has 4 stereo multi-effects units all available simultaneously with 52 different effects types.

It records to internal hard drive and also has a scsi connection for external drives and data backup. It has a very good display (same one as MPC 4000) with Akai 'Q-control' knobs for direct control of channel parameters including EQ, panning, FX sends etc. there are lots of ins and outs including Midi i/o, digital i/o, main and monitor outputs (with separate level controls) also 4 aux outputs for adding external hardware effects to the mix.

It's a brilliant machine if you want to record without a computer, with excellent sound quality. This one is in very good used condition - it has a few minor marks here and there from normal use but is clean and tidy and fully functional.
