The general engineering philosophy and problems of musical tone production are contrasted with problems familiar to audio specialists. A commercially produced instrument is referenced, including a description of the electronism incorporating a novel frequency divider mechanical design featuring complete sectionalizing of chassis and minimizing of external harnessing. Tone color circuits and keying problems are also covered briefly.
