EDP Gnat Synthesizer Schematics

Tim Stinchcombe reverse engineered the EDP Gnat and has posted the schematics online.

"I originally bought one of these out of idle curiosity - having read all about the Wasp and its use of digital inverters in the analogue section, I couldn't resist buying a Gnat (a 'Special' in fact) when the opportunity arose. It was sold as none-working, and after replacing a few chips, I got it working. On acquiring a Wasp, and then a second Gnat, it became clear there were differences between both the Gnat and the Wasp, and between the Gnats themselves. Nothing for it to but to reverse-engineer the whole thing, and have a look-see myself! The schematics are only hand-drawn, and I make absolutely no guarantees to their correctness whatsoever (more notes follow)"

E-Mu Proteus Pack

"Digital Sound Factory has reissued the original Proteus sample content for use with Cakewalk's Dimension Pro and Dimension LE synthesizers. Founder Timothy Swartz is a 20-year veteran of E-MU Systems and producer of the original Proteus sound sets used in their hardware products. Using the original sample content, combined with the advanced parameters available in Cakewalk's Dimension, these new instrument programs were perfectly matched and tuned to the original hardware products.

The E-MU Proteus Pack consists of over 3,500 immediately useable, go-to sound programs, perfect for any style of music you can imagine. And when you combine them with the infinite synthesis options of Dimension Pro, they also provide the perfect springboards for custom sonic creations."
