YAMAHA A3000 Effects
Versatile Professional Sampler
The A3000 professional sampler is an ideal break-beat
machine and phrase sampler for a wide variety of recording
and performance applications.
Excellent Effects System
The A3000’s triple-block effect system lets you set up
as many as three independent effects. Select from a wide
range of built-in effects — including original effects
custom-designed to heighten the performance qualities
of phrase and break-beat play. You can also apply
effects to incoming signals as you record them, and to
analog input that you feed through the A3000 for
realtime output.
Easy to Use
The A3000 presents its editing and control capabilities
in an easy-to-use three-level arrangement. All operations
are handled using front-panel mode buttons, function
keys, and knobs. You can access and edit any setting
by selecting the mode, then selecting the function,
and then turning the knobs directly under the
screen. It is also possible to use knobs and function
keys to control realtime playback.
Performance-Enhancing Options
Installation of the optional I/O expansion board (AIEB1
board) adds digital I/O capability plus six additional assignable-
output pairs to your A3000. The A3000 also
accepts up to 128MB of expansion memory.
