PS -- the units used, as I recall, the 1458's I've offered. What were they
inside?  Dual 709's, as I recall.  This was actually a good move in an era
when so many manufacturers were moving to the simpler circuitry of the 741.
741 op amps have absolutely terrible TIM and SID (transient intermodulation
distortion and slewing induced distortion) as they were internally
compensated for absolute stability which limited their performance.  The 709
takes external compensation, so it could be -- and was -- used in circuits
where it provided superior high-slew-rate (for the time) performance.  The
difference really shows up on acoustical guitar, harpsichord, and the
like -- still, nothing like the 5532/5534's and later of today --

I cant find the photo I had of it anywhere. If I find it I'll post
it. since it's free I'll take it and see how bad it is. even a bad
console is better than no console me thinks.
