1990s Production Floppy Disks (Akai Era) andre cymone Akai S1000This bundle of original 3. 5 production floppy disks dates from the 1990 and contains working sound libraries created and used by Victor Simonelli in his own studio productions. The disks were programmed for use with Akai sampler systems including the Akai S900, Akai S950, Akai S1000, and Akai S3000. During this period, Victors workflow was built around MIDI sequencing and hardware samplers, prior to the widespread adoption of computer based DAWs.
