I've been thinking about getting an s3000xl (or one of the more recent models, if they have this feature) again especially for this, you don't hear this effect in modern dance tracks anymore. A big loss, if you'd ask me. I didn't like the interface on the Akai, it took a long time before I got my mind around it. ........
Siem, a friend of mine has an S2000 (10 outputs, spdif) for sale. condition: mint, box, manual etc. for a very reasonable price of course. It's actually in A'dam (in storage) I could find an old (but working) mac with scsi with recycle and the Akai software too. I also have two hardly used Zip drives plus plenty disks. (hardly used) Daisy chain with mac and S2000 was possible. PM me for info if interested, I'll hook you up.

I went over to the dark side myself. (software) I do use a Korg ES1 phrase sampler to feed my doepfer.
