Just to compare apples to radishes, it is slightly possible to run a show with a LS-8 for lights and a Yammy LS9 for sound. OK, I'll shut up for a while.
HOW OLD do you think @avalentino IS? (For those stalker or nosy types, her birthdate is included in her member profile.)
If I may speak for her, from Let There Be Light (previously maligned here and here):
Anne's console history started at Kliegl, where she supported Gordon Perlman's Performer and Command Performance before moving on to Strand, where she consulted on Lightboard M and Light Palette 90.
So she was actually only about five years too late for LS-8.
P.S.: There's probably not a more complete history of the LS-8 than in the above referenced book, Let There Be Light by Robert Bell ( @Rob ). Unless it's The Speed of Light by Linda Essig. Both contain interviews with Gordon Perlman discussing early developments.
I'd say even "slightly possible" is quite a far stretch, in that only three (we think) LS-8 s were ever produced and the above is the only known survivor of the three.
EDIT: Okay, so I'm dense. I see now, you were making note of the LS-8 vs. LS9 nomenclatures. When iPhone was on iOS2, I don't remember anyone mentioning MicrosoftIBM OS/2. But maybe I missed it.
