[raises hand] Me! It's a great book, despite being somewhat outdated.

I have a copy (and it was purchased with my own money).

I bought my own copy MAoM. I also had the pleasure of getting it
autographed in person when I worked with Hal at Kurzweil in 1995-1996. Hal
is a nice humble guy. At the time he was spending a lot of time in South
Korea getting the manufacturing of the K2500 keyboards going. He also was
working on the Ribbonmate, which was one of his pet projects.

Wowee!
you know Hal Chamberlin ????
that's the BEST MAoM featurette so far... hands down!

and a hell of a good writer, that was one of the most lucid technical
books i ever read. i'll confess that after reading through the
projects, i wasn't interested enough in any of them (at the time) to
make any of the gadgets, but over time, that book became a reference
for a whole lot of analog synth issues irrespective of whether they
were digitally controlled or not.

i had a feeling that among this crowd, there'd be a few first editions!
thanx, John
