Its interesting that Les was THE single person that conceived of multitrack recording.
Yes. Richard Carpenter (of the Carpenters) probably sold more records from that technology than anyone else....it was really essential to their sound. He's often mentioned Les Paul as a major influence.

Thats probably why he's interviewed in the special.

No, I had the IVs and I also had the rare large reel adapter for it. It had the same wide gap heads as the Studer and would do about 78db s/n. The main drive motor bearings eventually failed... not worth the cost to repair unfortunately. I did the Hinsdale Pipe Organ CD with the Nagra. I think I gave you a copy of it.
