"This is a very cool, very rare item that just doesn't get enough use in my studio anymore.

These units were made in the 70s, and were (and still are) one of the few ways to track an audio input and convert it to a control voltage to be used with a synthesizer. They were also sold at the time in different form factors for use in the Serge and Aries modular synthesizers. There are web sites that discuss this unit in fair detail, including, I believe, one that was put up by it's designer Carl Fravel. (You'll have to search as ebay won't let me post the link)

This particular unit is roughly 2 rack spaces high. It does not have rack ears on it, so I used it on a rack shelf. I also have the manual for the unit which will be included with the auction..."
