MOTM

My copy of Allen Strange's "Electronic Music: 
Systems, Techniques and Controls" is really starting
to get beat up.  And, as I have metioned before, the
info page and contents were printed in jibberish.

So I ran over to the McGraw-Hill warehouse and picked
up another copy today.  Well, they got the info page
and contents corrected after my previous complaint.

Dave Hylander has not had a chance to put the
corrected info on his website yet, so check out my
previous posting about the Strange book here on the
list for information on how to obtain a copy.

For a sneak peak, here are the Contents (with the
"new" page numbers from the reprint):

If you have any questions, please let me know.  I will
try and help you out.

FYI, I am not connected with McGraw-Hill in any way
and I don't have any direct connections with Allen
Strange other than having talked with him online and
having another one of his books which he penned with
his wife ("The Contemporary Violin:  Extended
Performance Techniques").

Cheers!
