Gosh are people still installing those? Or are we talking legacy
installations from 10+ years ago. Always great fun to set up as it was
used so infrequently no could remeber exactly how to do it...

Yup. They were invariably one offs, so no two were the same. Unlike the
other controls on a 'strange' analogue desk that you could usually wing
your way around.

Dunno about current installations. Cost seems to be the main priority -
the days of doing things properly and allowing for all eventualities seem
to have gone. Just buy an off the shelf desk and dump it in.
