Can anyone give me some specs on the Akai S20? It's not even on their official site. How much sampling time will 17MEGS give me at 44.1Khz stereo? How many tracks does the sequencer have, etc.

I don't know about the S20, but 17megs of RAM should give you 170 seconds stereo sampling time at 44.1

A good reference is usually 10 stereo sample seconds per megabyte of RAM.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, that really helps. (That wasn't meant to sound sarcastic if it did.)
