Understood, I ∗have∗ been doing this for awhile. Any patch is a family of patches. When it
said "book," I guess I expected a "book," not a leaflet! Don't get me wrong, I think the
patches are interesting, nothing unconventional mind you, but interesting, nonetheless.
There does seem to be a heavy reliance on non-MOTM/non-modular outboard EQ and FX.
I expect Konkuro would have konkurred, though probably more harshly. The audio and
narration are helpful, but it would be good to have the notes as text along with the patch
(just in case you don't have an MP3 player module ;-). Please pardon me if it was
mentioned that there were only four patches, I have to admit I just skim most of what goes
through these groups (life, family, job, etc. - like the rest of you). Do I want my money
back? -nah... I'll just consider it a donation. Page for page, I guess the way overpriced copy
of the Strange book I got last year ($125) was a good deal after all, as it would cost about
$200 at this rate. :-)
