It looks that nobody has any infos about this unit...

After a lot of g-search I finally found a pic of this item. This tend to confirm it was actually used with (or part of) the AMPEX VR-1000 first tape videorecorder. The pic is a little fuzzy but the unit is clearly identifiable in the right rack cabinet top, and this is the one and only pic which can be found of the web.

BTW, I looked inside the unit and the big linear faders are not (resistive) potentiometers but are driving a multiple tapped coil/cap assembly, very likely an adjustable delay line, or response correction filter.
