Hi James!

If noone else has one, I've got a severly battered user manual for the
TMI... All pages were stuck due to moist etc from a decade in a basement. I
managed to get it readable, but it's not pretty...

electronically yours, jesper

Hi Tom , Jesper & List ,

Firstly a big thanks to tom for scanning and hosting the SDS III
Schematics , Thanks :-) .
There does look to be some similarity between the SDS III and the SDS
IV , what a shocker a Moog style filter ! .
I'll take some pics when it's finished and send them to you Tom to pop
on your site ( if that's OK with you ?).
The SDS IV does belong to a customer who loves it to bits .

I also noticed that you have a TMI spot on your page ... do you what a
manual for that ?.
Many thanks
James
