Akai ASQ10 Project Machine

“One of the best if not the best hardware sequencer ever imo, This is basically an MPC60 without the sampler.
Unit is in very good cosmetic condition for its age..

All the buttons work great and so does the floppy drive. The screen is very readable as shown on the photos.
The sequencer has a fault however that i was unable to resolve. While everything seems to work without issues, and you can access all the menues etc, the transport doesn’t start for some reason..if you try to record a new sequencer for example the transport buttons light up as expected but the sequencer doesn’t start running.
I haven’t used it for a couple of years but it was working last time i’ve used it, so not too sure what happened. This might be a bargain for the right person with the right knowledge.
It is currently running OS 2.12. I bought the latest Virmana chips some time ago but never got around to install them.. If i can find them (no luck so far) I will include them with the unit.
Finally, the power socket was modified to use a regular 3 pin IEC connector rather than the original 2 pin one.” Click here to visit listing on eBay
