btw the AES paper on the Olive automation is here: http://www.aes.org/e-lib/browse.cfm?elib=1864 but I ain't payin 5 bucks to find out=)

"A system has been constructed to allow up to 64 dynamic functions to be encoded on a real time basis into a single complex signal. The signal can be recorded and subsequently played back, decoded and used to program the mixdown of a multitrack tape. Operation, function ad digital technique will be discussed." 1971
I'm curious if Olive ever got one of those contraptions to actually work in the fileld, or if it was just vaporware.
