All the books I mentioned were printed in the 70's and were primarily dealing
with analog EM. I'd like to hear some more about analog books on MIT Press, I
have two books on computer music (I've only read a few things in either of
them) called "The Music Machine", and " Foundations of Computer Music" which
are both excellent.
And another analog EM book I forgot to mention is "Principles and Practice of
Electronic Music" by Gilbert Trythall. A basic text which contains a nice
little electronics primer.

I still don't have it but want to get a copy from him. This is the only
"music" book Serge recommended to me when I asked (he did recommend a few
books on FORTH however; DUP SWAP POP, sorry, I can't help it when I think
about FORTH).
