Re: [newmellotrongroup] SFX?

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.
