via this auction

"For Sale 1969 Schober Tunesmith , Made in USA New York VERY RARE , this is monophonic analog instrument , it can be combine with analog modular systems. Instrument works good , all keys are fine , nothing broken , instrument needs tuning it is 43 years old after all..."

PDF scans below and linked at the auction. This appears to be a DIY organ synth.  This is the first post to feature Schober.  I couldn't find a demo for it on YouTube, but I did find the following demo for the Dynabeat. I'm curious if any of the synthy organ sounds in the video are the Tunesmith. More pics of the Tunesmith below.

Published on Apr 10, 2012
The Dynabeat was sold as a kit with an assembly time about 35 hours. 'The Dynabeat's sound are produced by phase-shift oscilators, in some cases combined with multivibratord and diodes. They are extremely lifelike and make anyone who ever dreamed of being a drummer really sound like one.' 1968 price: $139,50.

'The authentic sounds of rhythm instruments to accompany your organ playing.'"
