Just what does the
Edison Tone Test
DEMONSTRATE?
THIS is an effort to explain' In simple
lucid language exactly what the Edi
son tone test demonstrates. When
you have read It we want you to have as
clear an Idea of Just what the test signifies
as though you personally had witnessed
one.
We have repeatedly asserted that in the
New Edison the great Inventor had perfect
ed a device which Re-Creates the artist's
voice with such complete fidelity that no
human ear can detect the slightest shade of
difference between the Hvlng artist and the
inanimate instrument. The tone test Is
conducted merely for the purpose of prov
ing the truth of this statement.
The demonstration is simple In the ex
treme. The Instrument is placed upon the
stage; an artist stands beside it. The in
strument begins to render one of the sing
er's own songs. After a few moments the
artist begins to sing the same song with the
instrument. Suddenly the singer ceases
and the New Edison continues alone. Can
you distinguish the difference? That is the
question.
Over 1500 of these tone tests have been
staged. Over 30 great stars: Anna Case,
Marie Rappold, Marie Sundelius, Alice Ver
let, Thomas Chalmers, Arthur Mlddleton,
Giovanni Zenatello and others of similar
eminence have participated in them. Of
the more than 2,000,000 people who have
been present not one has been able to de
tect any difference between artist and in
strument: between a singer's living voice
and the New Edison's Re-Creatlon of It.
With the lights lowered to hide the singer's
Hps not one of the 2,000,000 has been able
to say when the singer ceased and the in
strument continued alone.
In plain, everyday English the foregotag
is a description of an Edison tone test.
These tests have convinced more than
2,000,000 people that Thomas A. Edison
ha achieved what was believed to be Im
possible. We are publishing this not only
to convince you of the truth of our asser
tions about this Incredible Instrument but
also to urge you to call at our store and
learn for yourself what we mean by the
phrase "Music's Re-Creation."
