Subject: Re: [motm] looking for analog research books/sites?

From: Bob <bob@...>

I just downloaded the Emu pdf file, and from a quick once-over, it looks like it has almost everything that I'm looking for. The manual has nice details about every module, and how each one patches into another.

Now hopefully I'll find a new job soon and be able to afford to buy some more modules. ;)

Library, eh? I remember those buildings! For some reason that never came into mind.
