Akai DPS24, their flagship 24-track digital recording and mixing personal workstation, combines incredible features and unparalleled ease of use with hot technology from their professional post-production equipment

Akai DPS 24

The Akai DPS24 multi-tracker and 44-channel digital mixer is regarded as the most advanced model on the market. The updated and refined version of the older DPS12 and DPS16 models, the Akai DPS24 also borrows from the highly acclaimed Akai professional post production systems. With 24 tracks of uncompressed 24-bit recording and playback at up to 96kHz sample rate, the sound quality will blow you away.

The 60GB hard disc recorder offers over 5 hours of recording time, and deals with sample rates between 32kHz and 96kHz with no drop in performance at the latter end of the scale, thanks to the impressive power under the hood of the Akai DPS24.

Editing is a breeze with the addition of a waveform display and an amazing 256 levels of undo/redo, which means that you can play around to your heart's content without fear of destroying any of your work. Navigate with ease through your project thanks to the Akai DPS24’s cutting edge auto-locator system which allows you to hop through up to 100 user definable "bookmarks". A helpful tape-chatter feature through fast forward and rewind gives you a feel for where you are when trying to locate a particular point in your track.

The user interface has a professional feel with smooth touch sensitive motorized faders, solid transport keys and a multi-track jog wheel. The Akai DPS24 has an industrial metallic look and is illuminated across the board with orange LED strips and a large, adjustable LCD.

A plethora of dedicated Q-strip, Q-channel and FX keys used in conjunction with 12 rotary encoders allow you to adjust plenty of parameters quickly and easily, making the Akai DPS24 workstation a joy to operate. Function values are displayed on LEDs while the ample LCD offers graphical feedback of audio cues enabling you to see exactly how your track is progressing.
