Oberdorf MIDI controller cartridge for 37-key street organ with percussion.

Hofbauer EPROM memory cartridges (labeled 3, 4, 5) installed in a Hofbauer 'Harmonipan' monkey organ. At the left (in position 2) is the Oberdorf MIDI controller cartridge, which takes the place of a Hofbauer EPROM cartridge,

The Hofbauer proprietary encoded EPROM chips are installed in 28-pin sockets within the sturdy cartridge. At the left is a closed cartridge with a list of the songs it plays. The box is about the size of a video-cassette tape cartridge.
