Yes, It is a SFX console loaded with the original sound effects. The SFX was a "foley machine" using analog tape built for the BBC. Many people used these SFX sounds as a "sonic background" for movies and radio shows. SFX #006 was used on the movie "The Deer Hunter" as the room acoustics were so bad in the church where the couple got married and the reception locations that producers had to rerecord the dialog while using various SFX recordings as the sonic background. The actors actually recorded their dialog and watched the movie at the same so there voices matched the movements of there mouths.
