1986 – STUDIO 440
The Studio 440 was the first integrated music production system, combining sequencing, 12-bit sampling, and a drum machine. Like many of Sequential’s instruments, it was ahead of its time and introduced several innovative technologies of the period, including MIDI output from the sequencer and SCSI ports for data storage on external hard drives. The Sequencer allowed storage of up to 50,000 notes on 8 separate tracks and included a swing function, which was a first for its time. |
