1)
Troublefree
It
is
an
established
and
well
known
fact
that
Electronic
Organs
produce
sound
through
electronic
device.
Likewise,
electronic
rhythm
instruments
have
been
developed
on
the
same
principle.
Hitherto,
percussive
sounds
were
produced
mechanically
through
usage
of
rotary
disc,
etc.
and
since
the
operation
was
dependent
almost
entirely
on
its
mechanical
make-up,
defects
caused
by
mechanical
malfunction
was
by
far
the
biggest
drawback.
To
over-come
such
drawbacks,
our
revolutionary
"RHYTHM
ACE"
Full
Auto
has
been
devel
oped
on
new
principles
a
nonmechanical
solid
state
elec
tronic
brain
incorporating
modern
precision
manufactured
transistors.

will
always

Start,
stop
and
re-start
operations
can
be
done
with
ease
through
the
use
of
a
footswitch.
