A keyboard with a built-in ball pen printer. What a mad idea..
Back in 1983 musicians hardly had computers and the computers of the time weren't suitable for creating music yet. So Yamaha offered an option to print out scores of played notes (live&direct or from melodies recorded in the internal sequencer)
The Picture is clipped from the June 1983 US Playboy magazine.
