- Description
- This rhythmicon was made by Leon Theremin in New York, New York, about 1931. This instrument is the earliest electronic rhythm machine. It produces various drumbeats or rhythms using a unique mechanism of light sources and rotating perforated-wheels. A keyboard is used to produce a repeated single rhythmic note. Multiple keys produce overtone series of notes. Amplification with a loudspeaker produces the audible rhythmic output.
- The instrument was used by Joseph Schillinger in his 1940-41 recordings. Joseph Moiseyevich Schillinger (1895-1943) was a composer, music theorist, and composition teacher, known for the Schillinger System of Musical Composition.

- This boombox was made by Sharp Electronics, circa 1985. It is a portable music system, model HK-9000, with its dual tape decks, detachable speakers, built-in equalizer, AM/FM radio, and 2-fader microphone mixing was one of the largest boomboxes of the era.
- This boombox was used by hip hop pioneer, visual artist, filmmaker, and cable television host, Fab 5 Freddy, (born Fred Braithwaite). He was the first host of the groundbreaking hip hop music video show, "Yo! MTV Raps," in the late 1980s . Freddy has been forever immortalized on the American New Wave group Blondie’s hit single “Rapture,” when lead singer Debbie Harry rapped, “Fab 5 Freddy told me everybody’s fly.”

- Description
- This electronic instrument was made by the Hammond Organ Company in Chicago, Illinois, about 1946. It is a Solovox Model K, series B instrument with a 3-octave mini keyboard (Serial #66620) and tone cabinet (Serial #64003) with an electronic sound generator, amplifier, and loudspeaker. The Solovox is designed to be attached to a piano, and to be played with the piano as accompaniment. The Solovox produces its tones electrically, entirely independent of the piano, and does not affect the tone of the piano. The Solovox consists of two units, a keyboard unit which is readily attached to any style of piano, and a tone cabinet, which when used with a spinet or upright piano usually stands on the floor at one end of the piano. When used with a grand piano, the tone cabinet is usually suspended in a horizontal position on the under side of the piano in such a way that it is practically invisible.
- The Solovox features the following patents:
- U.S. Patent 2099204 dated November 16, 1937, by Laurens Hammond for a multiple key switch for electrical musical instruments.
- U.S. Patent 2117002 dated May 10, 1938, by Laurens Hammond for keyboards for musical instruments and the improvement in the construction of keys.
- U.S. Patent 2142580 dated January 3, 1939, by Charles E. Williams assignor to Hammond Instrument Company for an electrical musical instrument.
- U.S. Patent 203569 dated June 4, 1940, by Laurens Hammond, for improved keyboards and controls for combination musical instruments, such as piano and electrical instruments.
- U.S. Patent 2251052 dated July 29, 1941, by Laurens Hammond, for electrical musical instruments, vibrato apparatus and controls.
- U.S. Patent 233258 dated February 25, 1941, by Laurens Hammond and John M. Hanert, for electrical musical instruments of the melody type.
- U.S. Patent 2253782 dated August 26, 1941, by Laurens Hammond and George H. Stephens, for a keyboard for electrical musical instruments.
- U.S. Patent 2254284 dated September 2, 1941, by Laurens Hammond, for a variable impedance device.
- U.S. Patent 301870 dated November 10, 1942, by David Hancock, Jr. assignor to Hammond Instrument Company for a vibratory reed drive.
- U.S. Design Patent 123686 dated November 26, 1940, by George H. Stephens assignor to Hammond Instrument Company, for a keyboard for electrical musical instruments.
- U.S. Design Patent 124405 dated December 31, 1940, by Laurens Hammond, for a tone cabinet.

- Description
- This clavioline was made by Société Le Clavioline in Paris, France, around1947-1955. It is comprised of a combination amplifier/speaker and 3 octave piano attachment Type CM, Series 8, Serial #1424. The clavioline is a member of the keyboard family of musical instruments and is attached to a piano, under the right-hand end of the piano keyboard. It is played with the right hand on the Clavioline and the left hand on the piano, thus achieving the sound of a piano and organ played together. There are 18 stop-tabs. There is an engraved nameplate:
