TP,

> Musical Applications Of Microprocessors - Hal Chamberlin.

I SOOOOOO LOVE this book, I speant years trying to find one, now I have
(Borrowed from Dave, Hi Dave)
Its just so great.
Whilst its not exactly a beginners book, it does start quite gently but
towards the end it gets quite deep (Ive never seen 68K assembly published
over 6 pages in a book before , nice)...
I will NEVER be without this book, it is a BIBLE for people using micros in
synths...

> The Art Of Electronics - Horowitz + Hill

again , the deffinative bible for ananlog stuff, you wanna know
how/why/when/where its here...

> Electronotes - Bernie Hutchins, Et Al.

Nice, but expensive...

> Chamberlin's "Musical Apps of uP's" is one of the other lexicons
> out there - half the book is dedicated to analogue synthesis, while the
> other half is dedicated to digital synthesis. THe good thing is that this
> book does a great job at teaching complex signal theory in a very basic
> way. The bad news about this book is that it's out of print - but you can
> find a few copies floating around at used bookstores.

Hal sells them :-)
Theres also a guy on PAiA selling a few he has left (about 6 or 7 last time
I spoke)

TTFN
