Leon Gaumont
This was the first ever mixer with crossfader. The Gaumont Chronophone.
In 1910, the French engineer Leon Gaumont demonstrated his sound-and-film synchronizing Chronophone system at the Gaumant Palace in Paris, France. Gaument’s Chronophone had two gramophone platters, between which a deft operator could switch back and forth.
