Hi David

Yes, but my paypal certification takes some time (I have to await the
monthly billig), so I could not send the money to him yet.

Hey, Yes! Hey its me !! You all can see me clearly I say hey!!! :-))))))))

You should buy it though it is writtenin german. It is worth the money: you
will improve your german and I need a second Ferrari; also the travertin
patio of my villa at Saint Tropez requires some restyling. BONGgg.... ouch!
I fell from my chair in the backyard office. Must have been sleeping.
Welcome back to reality.


To be honest: this is one of the thousand books about synthesizers and
modular systems. You find it also here (this page only exists in the german
version of the doepfer site): http://www.doepfer.de/a100_man/a100b_d.htm


The complete subtitle means "Thats how electronic sound synthesis works -
explained with the example of modular synthesizers".

In the first half of the book I explain, how analog synth modules do work,
also with some explanations of the electronic principles. The second half
of the book has a lot of additional themes as: how to use dynamic handling,
how to use analog synths for percussion, how to work with polyphony (from
the technical as from the musical side), working with external signals,
creating compressors, noisegates and other dynamic stuff, using
vocoders,....
