The Panasonic RQ-J20X portable cassette player from 1982 was the first device to implement the dbx integrated circuit. The original dbx Type I and Type II systems were based on so-called "linear decibel companding" - compressing the signal on recording and expanding it on playback. It was invented by David E. Blackmer of dbx, Inc. in 1971. [1] [2]

Top left, stereo headphones with a cassette player built into one side. Top right, a portable cassette player and audio recorder with radio for use with headphones. Below, a miniature dictation machine mainly for business dictations, use by journalists, etc. The latter is far more widely used than the other two types, which were rather rare.
These systems were generally used as "mixdown" recorders, to record the finished mix from a multi-track recorder in preparation for the manufacture of a vinyl record, cassette tape, or CD. An example was the Dbx Model 700. [1] Another example is the Sony PCM adaptor series.
