One says, in addition, that one of the first electronic musical instruments was shortage accidentally as a result of investigations in telephone technology. Elisha Gray, that arrived at the office from patents one hour after Alexander Graham Bell to register a patent for the first telephone, discovered that he could control sounds through an electromagnetic circuit car-vibrator and doing this he invented the oscillator of a single note. The first instrument of Gray, the Musical Telegraph, touched notes through a rank of two eighth and transmitted oscillations done by steel cords through a telephone line using electromagnetos.
