ESI-32 Operation Manual
An Akai SCSI device is NOT mounted and accessed like a normal the
ESI-32 drive ( the load and drive buttons will not access the Akai drive).
Instead, it is accessed and operated using the Akai menus. Only one
Akai SCSI device can be known to the ESI-32 at any given time.
4. Press 0 on the keypad to select Akai SCSI Setup. This step is
necessary for the ESI-32 to recognize the Akai SCSI device. The
display shows:
AKAI SCSI SETUP
SCSI drive ID:search
TOSHIBA CD-ROM DRIVE
Select search or ID
The setup screen is used to select the SCSI ID of the attached Akai SCSI
device. The SCSI ID may be selected by using the inc/dec buttons, or by
typing the digit (1-7) directly using the ESI-32 keypad. The default
choice, "Search" instructs the ESI-32 to search for the first Akai device in
the SCSI chain. Normally you will use "Search" unless you want to select
a specific Akai device out of several on the SCSI bus. Press ENTER, to
confirm your choice and return to the option select screen.
• WARNING: If you have an Akai S1000 or S1100 connected to the
SCSI bus, you MUST enter the SCSI ID number of the Sampler (not
the HD) manually. Failure to do so will cause the system to crash.
Press the right cursor button for the next screen, then select the ID
number of the S1000 or S1100. This ID number is remembered on
power down.
5. Press 1 to select the Import Options screen. The following screen
will appear. Press ENTER when you have selected your choices.

Adjust Loops
Sample looping is implemented differently on the ESI-32 and the Akai.
Because of this difference, certain sample loops may "tick" slightly or
appear out of tune after being transferred from the Akai. This function
will automatically repair any incorrect sample loops immediately after
the samples are transferred. Be advised that the transfer may take slightly
longer (up to 15% more time) with Adjust Loops turned On.
