Oh, yes, the vaunted CBS Labs/Thomson CSF Volumax/Audimax
twins!  Bob Orban and Frank Foti made a career tweaking
those things.  My club has a TV Station Veteran Audimax
(left channel unit) handling the audio from the computer on
a repeater EchoLink VoIP circuit.  Not too Ham Friendly, no
blinking lights, just a big edge meter marked green and red
smack dab in the middle... And, it makes a wonderful rack
shelf for the LCD computer monitor, too!

Joe, W4TV, I now know, in retrospect, that I should have
confiscated that Kahn Symetra-Peak that was being used as a
doorstop at the Radio station transmitter site in San
Antonio before Waterman sold the stations for a much higher
calling in Ham Radio!

I coudda been a contendah on 3.625 with that box!  :)

Years ago in a land far far away we discontinued using the
Semetra-Peak 
(sp??) on AM in favor of the then new CBS Labs audio
processers ( 
Audimax/Volumax (sp??)) which did a much better job of
increasing the 
average modulation with far fewer artifacts.
We did retain the boom mic phase reversal switch for those
jocks that 
insisted that they sounder louder on reverse. Eventually the
switch rusted 
in place!

For each voice, polarity only needs to be set once for each
mic source.  For
crystal, ceramic, and dynamic mics, that can usually be
accomplished by
inverting the polarity at the mic element.
