Basic electronics book

Basic electronics book

2000-09-06 by Jeffrey Pontius

Since I'm very new to this diy synth stuff, I'm asking for recommendations
on a basic electronics book (i.e., what do the colors on this
cylindrical thing mean?, what does a capacitor do? what is a 47k
resistor?).

Also, a basic electronics book that is analogue synth oriented (I've seen
a book by Barry Klein mentioned, but can't locate a copy).

Thanks (a new adventurer?), Jeff

Are you an MOTMer?  Paul gives all of the resistor values at the beginning
of EVERY set of instructions.  Reread instructions.  Disregard is you only
buy pre-assembled units (unless Paul also includes the instructions there).
If you don't own any MOTM, buy NOW!

Cheers!
