I once looked under the hood of my Buchla quad mixer which I later sold to
Grant Richter, now of Wiard.  There were a bunch of 4016's Don used for
switching.  I replaced them with 4066's which are supposed to have a lower
on-resistance and throught I might have got a cleaner sound.  
There are some telephony companies making switch matrix chips these days.
They might be better for matrix patching than discrete 4066's.  (As far as
I know Lucent isn't one of them).  I got a catalog of one of these
companies in 1990 but never followed up on using them.
