The Akai EB16 SampleVerb is a true 4-channel studio quality effects processor for the MPC2000XL, S2000 and S3000XL, which offers two multi-effects channels with up to six simultaneous effects each and two additional reverb channels.

The multi-effects channels provide distortion, EQ, ring modulation, a choice of modulation effects that includes chorus, phasing, flanging, pitch shifting and rotary speaker emulation, as well as echo/delay and reverb. The reverb-only channels add two additional reverbs for a total of four independent reverbs. All EB16 effects are extensively editable and custom multi-effects configurations can be stored in 50 effects presets. An additional 50 presets are reserved just for reverbs.

Although the EB16 can add spectacular effects to single programs, its true power becomes evident when it is used in Multi Mode. Here it is configured as four processors, each with its own effects bus. Each Multi Mode Part can be routed, with its own independent send level, to one of the processors. In this way, an entire multitimbral composition, complete with mix and effects, can be executed entirely in the digital domain and routed through the digital outputs directly to DAT or to an Akai digital disk recorder.
