Eventually, its inventor Ken Freeman tried to strike a deal with the company Ling but they abandoned their interest in it.
Some users were fairly famous, but its release was overshadowed by both the Eminent Solina and Crumar Stringman, both of which had only one oscillator and were cheaper to make.
The MK50240 TOS contains a set of 12 digital frequency dividers which derive a 'top octave' of notes from one 2MHz input signal.
So the Freeman has three complete sets of tones that can be mixed to create more or fewer overtones in the sound, as one rank is tuned an octave below the other from the beginning.
There was a 'touch' (delayed) vibrato setting, and a 'glide' switch on the foot volume pedal (found also on many Lowery home organs), which dropped the pitch one-half step.
It was a heavy machine - about 70 lbs - and was rather durable except for the removable keyboard cover which looked like it hinged up, but rather pulled straight out.
