DAS SYNTHESIZER HANDBUCH - Bernd Schreiber

DAS SYNTHESIZER HANDBUCH
SYNTHESIZER TRANSPARANT GEMACHT
by Bernd Schreiber - 1980

Rare German publication from the early days of commercially available synthesizers, with explanations based on the use of the Korg MS- and PS series. Since the theory of all analogue synths is similar, this book can be used to understand and program many other synths from that era. If you speak German of course.

Originally a paperback, I actually damaged it a bit (folding back a corner while inserting it into a bookcase, which is still visible. Reason enough to have it bound into a hard cover to avoid further damage. Afterward i had this done with many synth books, to be part of a synthesizer library and guarantee them a long life. A library that never became a reality. Time to clean out the bookcase. The contents are still as new and in excellent condition.

* Do have a look at my other items and check this space once in a while. I’m cleaning out the closets to make space for other activities and every day I will add more (new / old-stock) synth- and electronic music books and other synth-things that will have to go.
