Electronotes page

Electronotes is the source of all things in analog synth design (well, up to issue #125. Then it's DSP based.). Written in in the mid-70s, in a clear concise style, this loose-leaf publication is what got me going on synth design. You can still order the copies, with the "Preferred Circuits Collection" (sort of a 'greatest hits') as a seperate item. The 'PCC' is a *great* thing to have! Just be aware it is dated, there are op amps and other parts either no longer available or that should be upgraded. But as an intermediate-level guide to how the innards of VCO, VCA, etc work, Electronotes it the place. The VCF explanations are still the best ever written. There is low-level calculus/high scool algebra math. Bernie Hutchins is a nice guy, but he teaches full-time at Cornell and if you do order, expect a 4 MONTH delay. If you are overseas, expect a 10 MONTH delay. But once you get these, you will see why they are worth it (like waiting for MOTM stuff, eh?). http://electronotes.netfirms.com/ Paul S.
