The 2nd edition is usually recommended though I'm not sure in which
way it differs from others editions. IIRC it is larger (275pp) than
the 1rst one. For good reason it's considered an essential reading by
many. However, it is very expensive by now unless you can find it in a
public library and copy it there. As Immanual had pointed it out it is
not a patch book. Best rgds, Ingo

overview of electronic music. It is not a practical guide though, so
maybe not what you are looking for. Anything will help understanding
and patching though. People have recommended the Arp 2600 manual which
is available somewhere on the net, so that might be a path to follow.
