Hello everyone!

Well, after four weeks of waiting for InterLibrary Loan to get their act
together, it turns out that the only library in the nation (in our ILL
system) that has the book has reported it MISSING.  I'll spare that
university the embarrassment of international exposure, but (of course)
now I'm really frustrated.  I have about 3 weeks to locate the book and
acquire all the parts that I need -- doable, but FIRST, I'll try the
obvious approach:

Can ANYONE PLEASE lend me their copy of the Elektor Formant book (in
English, of course) and I'll xerox it and fed-ex it back to you? 
Of course, if you don't want to let the book out of your hands, if you
could copy it for me I'd be glad to pay you for copy time and copies...
Hell, I'd even pay you shipping both ways!  (Can you tell how DESPERATE I
am to build this thing?  :] )  Anyway, please let me know so I know
whether or not to attack this university by force or not.  :>

l8r,

Subject: Formant gif

From: Rick Jansen 


I converted the designs of the fronts of my Formant modular
to a gif picture, so you may get an idea of what it looks like.
Instead of mailing it to the entire list I'll send it to you,
uuencoded, on your e-mail request. Size of the uuencode file is
89912 bytes, image size is 1610x1522 pixels. So, to view it well
you need a viewer that can show you only part of a picture at a time.

I drew the fronts originally on Macintosh, and converted that to
a 1-bit deep gif. So, the resolution is a bit less than the original.
Also due to the conversions the size is smaller than it is in real
life, and some of the positions of texts have moved a little bit.

To clarify which is which a bit: the circles with the dot in the
middle can either be an input/output connector, a switch or a LED
indicator. Inputs are always at the top of a module, outputs always
at the bottom. Situations like the following mean you can select an
              external signal with a switch. The upper 'O' is the
     (o)      external input, the lower 'O' is the switch.
