INSTALLING THE OPTIONS

The S3000XL can accommodate several options. These are the IB304F bank of second
filters and third envelope generator, the EB16 multi-effects processor and memory
expansion. These can be fitted by yourself if you feel confident to do so. To install any of
these options, you must remove the top of the case.
Consult your AKAI Professional dealer on installation of any options (including
memory) to the S3200XL. Self-servicing may cause malfunction of components or the
instrument itself. Akai does not guarantee against the unit's malfunction, damage or
Remove the top of the case by undoing the two large screws either side of the case and
the smaller screw in the centre of the top of the rear panel. Looking inside the S3000XL,
you will see something like this:

INSTALLING MEMORY EXPANSION

The S3000XL's internal memory can be expanded to 32Mbytes giving a massive
recording time of nearly six minutes. The S3000XL comes with 2Meg of memory
'hardwired' and there are two slots in which you can install SIMMs chips. Installation is
fairly simple. The SIMMs board is inserted at a slight angle and then pushed back where it
clips into place. Because SIMMs boards can differ, it is not possible to say "Install them
with the components facing the front of the S3000XL" or anything like that because some
SIMMs boards have the memory chips mounted on both sides sometimes. However, the
boards can only be inserted one way so you shouldn't have any problems but be careful
not to force them into place otherwise they may snap.
