Here is a text from Barry Klein about his books : ---------------------------------------------------------------------- FINALLY!! I have finally found a copy center to copy my books! Should be ready to ship next week. Electronic Music Circuits This is a complete copy of the original book (published by Sams in 1982). It contains circuits for most every type of module you would want to make for a modular analog synthesizer. Some circuits are my own, some slightly modified from the Digisound series, many Electronotes circuits. There were a few errors in the original printing and I have made the corrections in this copy. Also, this copy is enlarged up to 8 1/2" x 11" - lots easier to read! I include a 32 page update booklet that suggests alternative approaches, parts substitutions, an updated source list, etc. There are no new circuits (in case you have the original book already). Many of the circuits use CEM/SSM chips that are no longer available, but these circuits may serve as examples for repairing analog synths using these IC's. There are discrete examples of VCO's, VCF's, envelope generators, etc. many of which you have seen discussed on this list. Page count is around 335 pages. Electronic Music IC Databook This is a collection of all SSM and Curtis Electromusic (CEM) IC datasheets as well as volume 1 and 2 of the Curtis Synthesource shortlived newsletter/ applications bulletin. As the majority of these IC's are no longer manufactured, this manual serves as a one source reference databook for all of them. The written material in these datasheets is surprisingly detailed as to how the IC's work internally, and how they should be applied. The Synthesource material is especially cool. I also include some material from Linear Integrated Systems, a source for matched transistor pairs. Page count is around 300 pages (8 1/2" x 11"). Both books are printed both sides, 8 1/2" x 11", with a comb binding, clear cover. The books should be able to lay flat on the bench, but will not fold completely around like a spiral binding would do. Pricing: Electronic Music Circuits..................... $30 plus shipping/handling Electronic Music IC Databook.................. $25 plus shipping/handling Shipping: contact for estimate for regular book rate airmail or can ship by "Global Priority" which uses the USPS's envelope which can hold one book. This costs $6.95 to Europe and $8.95 to "Pacific Rim". US deliveries are $5 for one book, $7 for both. Refer to this address for initial contact (barry.l.klein@wdc.com) Method of Payment I don't have a charge card account so all transactions will be by money order. But for those of you outside the US, I really don't know how best to do it because there apparently are major bank charges for transferring foriegn funds into US currency. If you have any suggestions - let me know! Ordering Procedure I'd like it if you would contact me first by email with your intention to purchase any of the books. I then know to expect a letter from you, and you know that I am expecting it, etc. I can then notify you by email when your package goes out. Also, I should have a handle on how to handle overseas shipments and cash transfers in a couple weeks, after suggestions come in. My address: Barry Klein 32041 Pleasant Glen Rd. Trabuco Canyon, CA 92679 714-932-7493 wk phone barry.l.klein@wdc.com - work address, fastest response back barry.klein@solar.org - through a BBS, takes a while sometimes So that's about it, any questions just pass em on. Buy a book and start building!
