I've been using a spreadsheet for passive filter network design. I did some
by hand years ago. It took a day or two to get the basic value. I can get
the response curve changes in secs. Change a resistor value and watch the
response change. Set a cap to zero (equivalent of remove the cap) and
discover that high end drop is faster. I'm not going back to non-pc design.
(Correll not bill gates but it don't matter.

BTW: I ran the scope software someone recommended a few days ago (too tired
from teaching to page through and look up the name - but many thanks) on my
lap - No signal in just my finger on the end of a patch cord. Works well -
just won't draw the grid on files copied.

I'm jealous of Bill Gates and would prefer other operating systems also, but
I'm am writing this and listening to y'all at least in part to Microsoft. So
thanks and lets move on. Life is rough and to short to complain about
failures tell me what's good.

BTW again (Lots of pent up from being stuck in a classroom teaching 8 hours
a day for 2 weeks. I'm going to try stringing a bass with guitar strings (up
one octave) feed into maybe four active filters (try to at least get part of
the individual responses of the strings) and into octave dividers to get
back down to bass range.  Just an alternative to individual fret pickups.
Some times an organ sound is good. I'm already feeding into a log amp to
stretch the sustain. This won't happen till August - I already have too much
schedules and too many other circuits on the bench.
