Editing Akai S950 programs & samples with Awave, Renoise & Akaiutil
A quick demo for Akai S950 sampler users to show that you can now edit your programs and samples on the computer. Skip to 6:00 if you just want the jungle music :)
Errata:
2:12 I incorrectly refer to the "Keyzones" tab as the "Keygroups" tab.
5:17 I incorrectly refer to Akaiutil as Awave
I'm using ZuluSCSI here but a Gotek with Flashfloppy using .img files will work just as well. Will also work for S1000/1100, S3000 etc etc
Music recorded dry & mono direct out of the S950

This one goes out to the great Mikey "Phineus II" - the best junglist on the internets. Miss your vids Mikey! This was inspired by one of your hip-hop in the park missions.
How to Jungle on the S-760 with Octamed
มุมมอง 163K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Making Jungle on the Roland S-760 using Octamed on the Amiga 1000. Bring a set of loose fitting clothes and make sure all your various certificates are in order. Shout out to Rohan for his excellent work repairing my dead PG-300! S-760 pros: • Compact • Cheap • Multi mode filters are handy • SCSI • Lots of RAM • Hi-Fi • Does great things to an 808 kick. Euphonic bass response generally. S-760 c...

Sampled some synth sounds from the Juno-60 and made them into a quick garage beat. No effects. Recorded direct to phone in glorious mono.

Some more jungle for ya. Brought in the s1100 ‘cause the vocals take up so much RAM. A bit of break overdrive crunch on the desk. Master bus through the locally made High Voltage Audio bus compressor. Hope you like my amazing camera work.

Octamed jungle on the A1000. All sounds from the s950 ‘cept the sh01a arpeggio. Tweaking Gravitas LFO rate on pads and the Clusterflux on flanger duties. Happy 2019. Warning: contains piano stabs

A quick test capture of some jungle in Octamed running on the Amiga 1000 driving the Akai S950.
Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you. That AWave step was what I was missing. Also thank you ❤
Cheers @@bagawire, glad you found it useful!

Ah Sasquelch, good to have you back baby
Mate this is brilliant - so glad to see you post again.
Cheers,@@tom-541!
So if I understand correctly, you record the samples with the S950 and save them onto an SD card using a floppy emulator, then edit the samples and convert them back for playing with midi using a tracker? I didn't realise trackers did midi but it just reflects my ignorance of amiga midi. How perfect this rig looks for bringing to the park on a tricycle!
That's the idea. In this instance, I'm not using the floppy emulator but a larger capacity SCSI hard drive emulator at the back of the machine.
The king is back.
Awesome breakage, awesome setup. You are slowly selling me on Renoise. It's gonna happen eventually. I'm a bit more back to basics. Unexpanded Roland S750, Amiga A500 (PiStorm'ed and GoTek'ed though). Currently looking for some kind of KVM switch so I can use the mouse on my sampler (Only accepts Amiga mice). Come to think of it, would love to see a video on exactly that, if you have similar gear in storage.
Someone who know what they're doing. Very nice stuff indeed.
Nice!
Amiga!!
always a treat, thanks for the vid
This is great in so many ways. The video editting is great and so are the shots all looking nice and chill. The video itself is informative and finally the song at the end is very very good and imaginative. It goes beyond a simple tutorial and stepping into genuine art. It is crazy that this doesn't have millions of views. It's just perfect in every way. Great job! Love these videos!
That’s super kind of you to say @@az0r22 ! Appreciate it!
This method works great! Thanks so much for sharing your process. It helped me massively :) This is a great alternative to using Translator 7 and a cheaper option. I used wine to install Awave on my M1 mac following this video - th-cam.com/video/pC7CNiRoo5I/w-d-xo.html I used the wine-staging-9.13-osx64.tar.xz & it worked perfect with the demo of Awave. Also if anyone is having problems I strongly suggest you update your ZULU scsi to the latest firmware. My AKAI s1000 was playing back the files wierdly before I updated.
Cheers,@@groovining! Thanks for the extra info.
Thanks for sharing the info, much appreciated. If you don't mind me asking, what are you using to sequence your S1000?
@@quentinjames981 Renoise & Logic X. Both work great :)

Does this work with S900 also?
@@EvLoutonian yep. You need a gotek floppy emulator with the flashfloppy operating system for the gotek. Use floppy images in .iso format not .hfe You can skip all the stuff about changing directories if you’re using a floppy emulator. The directories are only for the 950 with SCSI
If you don't mind me asking, what are you using to sequence your S900?
@@quentinjames981 Hi! I don't really have a set system.. have Akai ASQ-10 hardware sequencer, but also MPC-2000XL, or MPC-1000, also great.
isnt he using octamed ?
Awesome vibes here :) Do you know if this workflow works on the S3000 too?
@@quentinjames981 yeah, just save as s1000 or s3000 files from Awave instead of s950
Thanks, and is that version of Renoise a legacy version? Does the latest work for this use case? I am hoping to find a way to workaround the painstaking process of creating keygroups, having to manually pan the L&R of each stereo sample - all while remaining on a modern mac laptop as I don’t have space to setup a secondary computer! Thanks 🙏
@@quentinjames981 this is a fairly recent version of renoise. It’s probably not the latest. I just watched a video on the latest version - it still works the same for this this stuff. The hardest part about doing this on a mac is that you need wine (or some other windows emulation later) to run awave. I’ve not got awave running properly but it works just enough to do this loading and saving business.
@@Samplers Thanks for clarifying about renoise. Awave seems to be running splendidly on your mac, are you using wine? I've messed with wine a few times for different reasons without much success. However unless I'm missing something, it should be possible to use renoise on my main laptop (macbook m1) to export the samples + .sfz, and then pop the SD card into a windows machine running awave, then back into the S3000 (ZuluSCSI) right? Might try make room for a small windows laptop in that case. Also - how does akaiutil handle volumes (e.g. hd 0950.iso) with multiple partitions, do you get control over which partition to affect? Cheers
@@quentinjames981 yeah I’m using wine. It’s not running splendidly but will open and save - the main things I need. You saw GroovingInG’s post here - sounds like he might have things better configured with wine. Also, as you suggest it is totally possible to jump over to a windows box for awave. The fewer steps the better though! Note all of these programs run on windows. It’s a option to do the whole process there.
Instasubscribed.

My man, glad to see you on TH-cam. Under pressure was and still is blessing! That fat and griddy sound you push from old electronics is insane. Love from Moscow ❤
Awesome video!

Love this kind of content. Nice one 👍
Thanks@@museum1401!
glad ur back! please do octa med tutorials <3
I could do a lil tute on octamed effects column stuff. Thanks for the suggestion @@user-lx7hg2wr6l
Does this work with the Akai S3000XL? Nice video btw! instant sub :D
@@RetroJay1974 totally. Just save as Akai S 1000/3000 instead of s950 in Awave
Hi there nice video could I implement this same work flow with my s1000 and Gotek emulator
Totally. Just save as Akai s1000 instead of s950 in Awave.
@@Samplers nice one thanks for the reply is this only for Renoise?
@@djtekkazlocked6486 you don’t need renoise - awave has some similar built in features for editing programs. I just like renoise’s features and UI.
I love it a lot!
super nice
Thanks@@dehendriklechatwillekens !
This should also be possible with s1100. Just brought AWave. It’s great. Looking for solution for W30 to wav so if any one knows one just shout…
Have you tried Llamamusic, some great W30 resources there.
If you don't mind me asking, what are you using to sequence your S1100?
Sweet as. I miss the Trinitrons. Back in the day we just threw many of them in the trash, huge mistake from today's standards. They were the best CRT.
Great tutorial, great setup, great tune.
thanks @@huhummmmmmm !
Hell yeah!!
@@lewis9898 Michael Bolton watches my channel!
I don't have an S950 but I still enjoyed the shit out of watching this... come to think of it, I don't have Renoise, or Awave, or Akaiutil, but still a dope video.
Thanks @NM-ir6wd !
Man that is such a nice Trinitron you have there :) Great video thanks.
Thanks @enneff! I travelled a couple of hundred kilometres by train to pick up that monitor. A ridiculous journey.
@@Samplers absolutely worth it!!

Looks like an early version of Performer MIDI sequencing software, can anyone confirm?
@@playacarate3243 it’s Cubase v2
Sometimes i wonder if i was born in the wrong time and age, but then i remember the country that i live in and if i lived in the country i live in i probably wouldnt know a sound called "jungle". (Or have equipment to make the sound of Jungle) But damn i wish i was having my teens in the 90's. Im just a Gen Z'er that makes some sounds on Fl studio now. Oh well.
FL studio can do all of this. This is just for amusement and nostalgia.
The s-760 doesn’t have a sound that is in anyway important to this kind of music. There’s a better argument that some of the early Akais have some magic but even that is FAR from essential
@@Samplers I mean i am aware of that, I was more on about being able to witness the birth of Jungle and genres alike. I've been chasing the same sound as yours on both my TH-cam and my soundcloud pages. And i guess i am a Nerdy person so i just like to play around with old Computers. I do wiggle around in C64 emulators anyway. So- yeah,
@@Samplers I guess what i am after with wishing to live in these eras is not to make music this way or me thinking its the Equipment that gave the taste (which with akai it kinda gives a taste i guess.) but instead me wanting to experience the time period. More of a sentimental reason. Hope it makes sense even tho im supposed to be a Native english speaker according to IELTS my english goofs up sometimes.
@@siwij I reckon the main thing is to “find the others” - the other people who like cool stuff and who have interesting ideas, and to “make stuff happen”. The best thing from the 90’s in my opinion was participatory and collective nature of the party scene. I don’t see many parties happening in my area that are in illegal warehouses but plenty going on in warehouse spaces, under bridges and in the cracks. Someone has a sound system, someone has some records or a USB, someone has a generator, some lights etc.
DOPENESS!!!
Dope as fuck
i love how this video is paced and edited, its like sitting in the room while you cook up
8:33 - 8:45 pure fire
Remember not so long Akai S1000 8 megs ram expansion seemed so cool and now we have 32 megs for such a good price it's insane
7 virtual SCSI drives on an SD card is great too. Its a golden age of hardware hacking for sure.
@1:48 is too sick. Can u remake this tune nd release it? Start makin tunes man, u got good style in samples nd sounds for Jungle
Epic
Hi mate do you have an email i can talk with you on please regarding a label im launching?
your setup = chef's kiss
bro please come back
I’m still here! But yes, need to make more vids. Long weekend this week. Maybe bust something out. Walking home from seeing djrum just now. Energising.
