Oh, found a link with a drawing (too bad it's not a photo) of the cadaver ear recorder on the webpage of the guy who wrote one of the texts I'm using in class. Good stuff.

It sounds to me like EQ and phase shift stuff. The cool thing is that it can retain a nice, fairly solid mono image. It's got a crossover in it that allows you to affect the width of the high-frequency differently from the bottom. Very cool box. I rarely use it on stuff I've tracked, but it's a very handy tool when I'm mixing something someone else recorded.

That Orban Stereo Synthesizer sure sounds like a combination of EQ and delay (which imparts phase shift...)

I used it today! :) On a remix for a band.

I had a stereo drum loop which had a lot of 'difference' material in it.
One channel of that loop went to my Spanner (auto panner - triggered off the kick every other beat for a half-note pan - On-U heaven!) and the other side went to the Orban (and was returned in stereo) after some eq and a gate to chop the crap out of it, with a slow attack... MmmMmm.

I'll let you all know if the band I did the remix for releases it...
he took a duck in the face at two and hundred fifty knots.

Two Orban items I'd love to have if someone's selling are the 245 and a 111 reverb.
Can't decide though if I'd want the power switches already broken, or if I'd want to have the priviledge of doing it myself. But then, how often do you find an Orban box with an intact power switch? Now I'm just gettin' greedy.
