it ran me 12$ and covers alot.  the only drawback is there is _actual_thinking_
involved! thomas lays out the basic circuits you need as modules and nudges
you in the direction to assemble them in.  there is a layout of the snare
getup and it looks like a doozey.  midwest analog sells a kit called the ADV
Snare.  looks good, i've been pondering wheter to get it ...
