TeleTales 26…The Gray Research Sound Effects Console

This is kind of a followup to posts earlier in the week that showed portable turntables from the 1930s, This was the big boy unit and CBS had a lot of these in their radio studios across the country. RCA had a similar model.

These were originally used for sound effects playbacks, but some of the first disc jockey shows were done on these machines as well. Enjoy and share! -Bobby Ellerbee

    Do I see 3 tables and 4 arms in this picture?

    The Gray Research CBS system color monitor from the 1950’s.

    Before carts, sound effects and music cues were on records. Doing a live production, you’d have to get to the records fast!

    Do any still exist?

    Neat idea with the turntables and mixing console in one piece of furniture. I’m not so sure about that record storage, however.
