"A popular budget spinoff sample module from more expensive models S-3000 / S-3000XL with smaller display and lacking some functions. Today S2000 is considered quite obsolete and maybe one of the most hated sampler in the world! Let's see why!" http://www.polynominal.com/akai-s2000/index.html

But what about being soulful and harmonics. The S2000 is highly sought after, I regularly sell them for $650 USD.
I also traded one back in Februrary for an SP-1200.

The s2000 on the other hand is just a beige box with ugly jogwheel and a way too small display for it's functions. TBH I can't really remember how it sounds (a friend of mine had one to produce Techno/House)
I should try to make a business out of it (trading s2000 for SP1200)
I should at least have buy this for the Flash ROM. My MPC2000 would have liked.
