Amusing… around the same time, opto-coupled limiters came up. 30 years later, when the Scorpions where still a highschool band, they won a day in a “recording studio” which turned out to be the basement of a simple tape amateur with a simple Grundig reel-to-reel and a single microphone. Klaus Meine had to sing in an old empty washing powder package out of cardboard to keep the dynamics under control in a similar fashion.
