Abstract:
Meet Saul Walker, co-founder and former Chief Engineer of API, creator of the 500 Series, including the 512 Mic Preamp, the 550A EQ, and the 500 Lunch Box. His 2520 Op-Amp paved the way for modern audio technology, and his console system designs have remained highly sought-after throughout the past four decades. His designs include digitally controlled spectrum analyzers for NASA and the US Navy, and automated film post-production consoles for major film studios worldwide. Alex U. Case helps navigate the conversation with the inventor, engineer, and educator whose career has had such far-reaching influence, from missiles to mixers, from outer space to rack space.
