max supply voltage of 36V. The mixing board channels with +/- 22V won’t like that.


Neither would a 5532 !  That is 36V max as well.

I was R&D director at a well known British mixer company and we always used +/-17V tops on the output stages.  Those using higher voltages for line drivers usually use a pair of output transistors to drive the line.  I think my predecessor Douglas Self shows how best to do this in his book.

Would have been better if they'd just said use the OPA1678 which is moreorless drop-in for SMT versions.

maybe maybe not a problem for you.

There are several Chinese suppliers of real 5532 clones in DIP-8 if you need them.  The ones from COSINE are definitely drop in if you're worried.  Haven't tried the other suppliers.
