the basic basics of synth design

[scopey at hooked.net]

Alex,

I'm also conducting a massive hunt for analog synth schematics and other 
design info.  I found some great pdf files at 
http-//www.tellus.vallentuna.se/gymninfo/personal/anders/
(though I'm not having much luck getting there today.  Of particular 
interest are the articles from Radio-Electronics magazine on the old 
PAiA synths, the Gnome and the Oz.  Besides this, I would definitely pay 
a visit to Midwest Analog's site, and www.synthfool.com.  Follow some of 
the links, you will find some circuits.

Let me know if you discover something else worthwhile.

p.s. follow the link from Midwest Analog to the Electronotes info, and 
buy Bernie Hutchins' 'Preferred Circuit Collection' ($25).  I just got 
mine in the mail yesterday, and it is more than worth the cost; most of 
the many circuits are discrete designs (i.e. don't use special ic's).
