Loewe 3NF, one of the first "integrated circuits". Nearly all of the parts for a radio, stuffed into a single vacuum tube. Dates to 1926.

>>106999015You have to go back.
>>107001006Well yeah because in '77 they didn't have VSTs more powerful than any hardware synthesizer could possibly be.Musicians bought prophets because they had to, not because they made enough money as a dentist to live their childhood dream of playing the same synths as Pink Floyd
>>107000988It's a double slot. The second cassette bay is behind the first with shared spindles to rotate the reels independently. When you eject, the double bay folds out as one, giving access to both tape bays. I loved this design back then. The whole wall but is so deep that the secondary deck in recessed deep.
