Review via Amazon:
"Although a little dated, this book offers both the novice and intermediate student of the synthesizer a great foundation for the basics of sound structure and synthesizer functionality. It utilizes clear, concise language that is not overly academic or boring. It is written in a friendly fashion that makes you feel that the author is talking to you as if he was standing right next to you. It is very relaxed.
It has been used at Modesto Junior College (I am a former student) as the primary textbook since 1995.
It covers all of the basic forms of synthesis as well as a chapter on the synthesizer's basic relationship with computers and a chapter on how to look for and purchase a synthesizer based on your needs and finances.
It also covers the fundamental principles of MIDI.
If you are wondering about how you are going to learn about your new syntheizer without taking a college course, this book is definately the way to go.
It is absolutely packed with an incredible amount of very useful information. Do not hesitate to purchase this book. It is well worth the money."
