_________________________________

The author welcomes feedback at:

The purpose of this book is to present basic electronics in an audio context. The vast majority of modern audio technology is electronic in nature. Furthermore, a growing interest in custom and circuit-bent musical instruments and equipment renders a basic level of electronics expertise ever more relevant and valuable to the modern musician, audio professional, and sonic experimenter.

Electronics can be approached at a variety of levels. As a highly academic engineering discipline it merits study in the context of a technically rigorous electronics degree, and a career of application, and deepening theoretical knowledge and comprehension.

This is not the electronics addressed here.

As a practical tool for technically minded musicians, music producers, and sonic artists, electronics can open up a world of experimentation and artistic possibilities, without the need for the depth and rigour of the professional electronics engineer. Creativity wedded to a modest but solid technical knowledge-base opens this rich world of experimentation and inspiration, expanding the boundaries to create new sounds in interesting and unusual ways.

Of the very many electronics textbooks available, few enough approach the subject from a more informal standpoint, better suited to application in less technical disciplines. For the most part they are aimed at electronics engineers, and rely on detailed technical analysis and much mathematics. Fewer still diverge from the general approach to the subject, and provide a treatment specifically focused on the audio electronics sub-specialty. This book aims to address these dual requirements, with an accessible, audio-centric presentation. It provides a relatively rigorous but easily digested treatment, with enough technical detail to allow the reader to expand their understanding, while avoiding the use of complex mathematics and analysis.

This book is aimed at the technically minded electronics non-specialist who wishes to explore circuit building and hardware hacking, without getting bogged down in electronics theory and advanced mathematics. It allows students, musicians, hobbyists, and audio professionals to develop the skills and understanding needed to engage creatively in the rich and varied hacking subculture which exists where music and engineering intersect.

The book combines this moderate level of technicality with a firm focus on the practical. The aim is to allow the reader to become an electronics builder and experimenter, understanding more than is achieved by simply following step by step circuit building tutorials, but avoiding the limiting requirements of a full technical treatment.

This brief introductory chapter outlines the broad framework adopted for the material presented in the rest of the book, and highlights some of the important features of the text. These include a number of special optional asides presenting more technical material apart from the main flow of the text. There are also numerous practical exercises providing the opportunity for a deepened understanding of the subject through guided practical work. The main body of the book is presented in three parts Electrical Theory, Practical Electronics, and Component Reference followed by a number of appendices, and closing with a bibliography and index.

is rounded off with a chapter on signal characteristics, providing some background to the key aspects of audio signals.

is concluded with a set of fully worked projects to build, including a simple battery powered amplifier, an interesting sound synthesis circuit and a useful audio effects processor all the building blocks needed to start making some noise.

Component Reference is composed of a series of chapters detailing the most important facts and figures for all the different components likely to be encountered in audio electronic circuits, including numerous applications and circuit examples throughout. The focus is on that information which can prove most useful in understanding and working with these components, while the more obscure theory aspects are kept to a minimum.
