The ASR10R Advanced Sampling Recorder provides you with a complete digital production studio. These high-quality samplers integrate an effects processor, a MIDI sequencer, and a digital tape recorder -- all in one easy-to-use instrument.

* Sampling -- Create stunning 16-bit samples in stereo or mono, with up to 16 MB of sample memory. Then, shape your sounds using the ASR's extensive voice architecture and editing features.* Effects Processing -- The ASR has the most powerful onboard effects processor ever offered in a sampler. Sixty-two effects algorithms (from our acclaimed DP/4) offer many creative possibilities. You can sample through effects such as EQ or compression to condition your sound upon input, or resample a sound multiple times through different effects. You can even process external audio through the ASR while you play live or play back sequences, eliminating the need for added gear.

* Sequencing -- No mere "scratchpad," the ASR's 16-track sequencer provides real time and looped recording modes, 96 PPQ clock resolution, an auto-locate function, and many of the same advanced, yet easy-to-use features that have made ENSONIQ keyboards famous around the world!* Digital Audio Recording -- Add two tracks of live audio performance to your MIDI sequenced tracks for complete music production with one instrument. Record to RAM or SCSI hard drive with the simplicity of a tape-recorder, with advanced features like punch-in/out, and auditionable editing. No other sampler gives you this extraordinary capability.

* Access to Sounds -- The best library of sounds available, including both floppy disk and CD-ROM volumes. For access to the broadest range of sounds, the ASR also imports Akai (S-1000/1100) and Roland CD-ROM's, complete with programming and performance parameters! A high-density (HD) disk drive is standard, while the SP-3 SCSI interface (optional on the ASR-10 keyboard; standard on the ASR-88 keyboard and the ASR-10 rack) supports using up to seven simultaneous hard disks and/or CD-ROM drives. The Best Supported Sampler -- Since its release, we have continually enhanced the ASR-10 adding digital audio recording, digital I/O support, importing of new sound formats, and more. Best of all, we've made each new release available free to our users! - Mfg list price $2895.
