What the hell is this?

What the hell is this?

2004-03-16 by J.K.Beresford

Ahh yes the Mellotronics PEG module! I've only ever seen one 
before in the flesh and that's at the National Museum for 
Photography Film and TV and Bradford, UK (where they also have a 
very nice early black SFX console they let me play with - but sadly 
in store and unlikely to ever be displayed). I think I've got (or had) a 
spec sheet or something on these somewhere. These were the 
forerunner to the cartridge-based SFX and jingle-players used in 
just about every radio studio in the 70's/80's so they came after the 
SFX consoles. I don't know how many were made or if they made at 
Streetly or what - only JB would know.
