all evidence to the contrary fletch f. fletch, i used a focusrite STUDIO console for a long time,and those modules either the 110's or the aux send modules were exactly the size of the taxidermied 1073 we had in the rack of studio...the psu and connectors were different so it wouldve taken some finagling to make them work , but physically they were the same...
now ive never seen an ssl b series before, but i am sure they were more like the current ssl modules are...being at the time of ff, late 70's/early 80's...the e/g didnt exist yet...
the focurite i knew and loved(now taxidermied itself)so well, it was interesting to see how much of the design,especially of the center section and all the neat little things it was capable of,made it into the 9000j, incestuous indeed,as from what ive heard,when the second incarnation of ff went broke,ssl hired away most its design staff...
ive never seen or even heard a forte,but an ex coworker of mine here in chino used tech one over in N.Y. but i think he told me through the haze of lit kent, that he had never recorded with it.
damn.
