[sdiy] Suggested TOC for synth-DIY "book"

[Tim Ressel]

Yo,

I thought I'd jump in... I know Harry is kidding, but
he illustrates a point: This kind of book needs to be
as unbiased as possible. Bias can take several shapes.
Pro-this or anti-that is one way. Having too narrow of
a view is another. In working with other folks, I have
come to realize that not only is my way not the only
way, but there are many many other ways. getting
caught in a rut is very easy. I just love it when
someone comes to my domicile and makes my modest
little synth do something way different.

I think I'll buy Harry a delay stomp-box for his
birthday  ;-)
