The Synchronphone
Adsuin is handling the new sound device placed on the market by S & S Enterprises. This instrument, pictured above, is a two turntable device, with the tone coming through a dynamic speaker mounted on a sound baffle board, pictured at left.
Special Rheostat Developed for Fade-in and Fade-out
ANEW device for accompanying the silent moving picture with a continuous score of phonographic music has been put on the market by the S. & S. Enterprises, Inc., 46 Church Street, Boston, Mass.
Selling for only $395, the device consists of two turntables, electrically driven, Samson amplifiers in a mahogany console, and dynamic speaker on sound baffle board.
With only three wiring connections to be made, a connection from the A.C. current
lo the loud speaker, and another to the amplifiers and a third from the amplifier to the loud speaker, it is said the equipment can be wired in five minutes.
The fade-out of one record and the fade-in of the next is effected through a special rheostat, so that the average person can cue by regulating one turn-dial.
The device is on demonstration at the offices of the Adswin Corporation, 727 Seventh avenue, New York.
