Hi All !

Strange, been buying books about synths and EM for many years now,
and have not come across these works at all . Found a lot on EM and
computermusic though (much MIT press) .

If one does'nt mind printing one's own, i suggest surfing to :

http://www.tellus.vallentuna.se/gymninfo/personal/anders/andersus.html

and download the Digisound user manual (with the full docs if how it
works stuff is needed), the Formant docs, and the Wireless world
synthesiszer docs . This should cover some of the basics .

Looking at the one chapter online (and the other stuff on his site
:) ), the synthesizer tutorial by Andre Stordeur looks pretty good,
too .
Details on :

And in a book list i always plug Musical Applications of
Microprocessors by Hal Chamberlin . This deals with both analogue
and digital ways to produce and twist waveforms, with a lot more
thrown in . Very well written, can provide a wide background, also
from the nuts and bolts perspective . Out of print, but can be
ordered from the author . See Paia site for more details :

Hope this helps somewhat .


Keep 'em oscillating :)
