Clavivox

The Clavivox was a keyboard sound synthesizer and sequencer developed by American composer Raymond Scott.

[3] Scott's instrument allowed the use of portamento over a 3-octave range, which made it possible for the player to control the synthesizer via a keyboard, but with additional glide, giving it a "human" quality.

Additionally, Scott's design added amplitude envelopes, vibrato and other effects.

"A lot of the sound-producing circuitry of the Clavivox resembled very closely the first analog synthesizer my company made in the mid-'60s," Moog explained years later.
