Electrosound es-505

[tuanuibi]

Heya all,

A bit of a long shot with this one... Wondering if anyone has any documentation for the Electrosound es505 tape machines.

This one - http://lcweb2.loc.gov/master/mbrs/recording_preservation/manuals/Electro%20Sound%20ES-505.pdf

Thanks in advance!
Josh

audio electronics similar to Ampex AG-440,  same designer.
24 VDC rails instead of 39 VDC, allegedly to satisfy European safety regulations.
rare, but their capstan idler (pinch roller) became fashionable  to fit on Ampex and Scully machines.

Thanks very much!
I'm about to compare it to the the 440 schematic - lets see how similar it is!
