  • Abstract
    This paper presents the study and the construction of an Electronic Musical instrument which is used in the integrated study and performance of both European and Oriental civilizations´ music (Byzantine, Arabic etc). The principal idea of its realization is the thinner partition of the well-known European scale and therefore the development of new notes. The instrument in question is realized with the use of complicated electronic circuits. The paper provides a complete design and brief analysis of this electronic instrument
