Interesting.

This must be the script for the later book of Wolfgang Bock (Taurus),
about synths. I still have that. I think Mr. Bock is more musician
than engineer, so you have to be very carefull...

E.g. I think he explained the effect of frequency modulation via fast
step sequencer as "hearing all frequnecys (of the steps) alltogether"
which is of course completely nonsense.

I'm engineer, no musician. I'd never dare to explain some musical
question, if I'm not absolutely sure what it is all about.
Many books about synths are written by musicians, and many of these
contain misunderstandings, errors and crap.
A lot of prejustices come from that and spread arround, like
synth X sounds weak, filter Y is too bright, oscillator Z sounds fat and so on.
