Re: [wiardgroup] ARP 2600 Users Guide online

2007-04-09 by Sam Ecoff

I thought I'd weigh in on this as I own two different versions of the ARP 2600 manual. I own the original Tonus version, which I believe was authored mostly by David Friend (somebody please correct me if I'm mistaken) and the later ARP version written by Jim. While both are interesting reads from a historical point of view, they both share the same general weakness in my point of view: unless you already have a solid understanding of modular synthesis, they are a tough nut to crack for a newbie. For those that are interested, I put up a scan of my copy of the Tonus version (which is out of print, btw) here: http://www.emusic-diy.org/ArpManuals.

Damn, ctrl+s.

Here's the link:

I got poo'd on for putting up a post to the pdf on my site, so I updated the
link to Jim's site, but then I decided to do a quick search for ARP 2600
manual and sure enough the first hit is a pdf of the manual on guitarworld.
Anyone know how Jim feels about this? Just curious. I'd love to spread the
ARP 2600 love, but not sure if I should. So for not I'm not, sort of...

cheers,
matrix
