Two cards with the names of two tunes could be inserted in every frame. The control unit allows selecting one or several tunes from the total quantity of 160 ones. The upper section is covered with anodized metal mesh with shallow apertures. Rectangular panel with numeric keyboard, volume range keys, windows with two banners and coin reject button are in the central part. Thickening with horizontal slot for coins is on the keyframe top.
