So here at work we're shuffling things around a bit before the students come back in two weeks. Happens every semester, just the way it works. As part of the shuffling some folks switched administrative jobs, and the new classroom services fellow is clearing out a bunch of "junk". I've taken the liberty of rescuing a gem: 'Audio Cyclopedia' by Howard M. Tremaine, 1969 edition. According to the cover it's "the most comprehensive and authoritative reference volume on audio ever published -- covers every phase of the subject, including the latest solid-state and integrated circuits". This is a 1700-page hardcover monstrosity. Sweet!
Opening up to random pages reveals all sorts of neat stuff. Figure 18-72B, schematic for a Noise-reduction amplifier. Figure 12-259C, schematic for a two-FET phase inverter. Figure 9-47, block diagram for a 3-section split-channel mixer. Figure 17-179C, clock diagram for a Nagra III 1/4" tape recorder.
This thing is dated, sure, but it's going to be terribly useful next time I start hacking at things. That's all -- just bragging
