Method and apparatus reduce the memory capacity needed to store control codes used to obtain specified frequency values that represent musical tones with a predetermined relationship. The predetermined relationship of the musical tones allows a dual-tone melody generating music box to play melodies two notes at a time. A six-bit code is used to instruct a frequency divider how to divide a master frequency into each desired musical tone.
