Well, sure. My question was more about whether they are used in any
vintage synths in any way that people want to use the original parts.
I suspect that the chips I listed won't have any value for hundreds,
maybe thousands of years :) Like old TTL chips, sometimes it's best to
just toss them out. The UA726 has become valuable because there is no
reasonable substitute, the same cannot be said for old op-amps.
