"Welcome to part one of a series taking you down the rabbit hole of DIY electronic synthesizers based on (largely) CMOS logic chips." Looks good, especially the stuff on counters and shift registers.

Cortex M4 + on-board audio and MIDI + midi host + lots of GPIO = iiinteresting low-cost audio/midi prototyping board.
-
Fascinating presentation – even in slides-only-form – from Sean Costello of ValhallaDSP, on a history of reverberation.
-
A quick useful overview of Logic's compressors – specifically, what they emulate, and how to limit them to those original parameters.
-
Lovely article on Dudley Moore's jazz playing; I'd always enjoyed what I'd heard of it, but this gives a broader overview. That take on 'My Blue Heaven' is just great.
-
Really impressive: audiomux/midimux let you send audio and MIDI to and from iOS devices over a lightning cable. Which eliminates all manner of cable tangles, for starters.
-
Another interesting resource on simple CMOS sound generators.
-
Basic digital oscillators based on hex inverters and the like.
-
Bookmarked as the least horrible pd reference I could find.
-
Mike Senior on gain staging, which I'm still terrible at.
-
Found these useful, just on going from composition to final mix – and a particular simple take on something approaching mastering (or, at least, bus compression). Not just useful for Live, either.

"My class handouts grew into a crude PDF textbook, which somehow escaped the walls of the school. Emails began to arrive asking me to conduct workshops. An editor at Routledge, invited me to elevate my drawings and prose to a publishable state, and the result was Handmade Electronic Music — The Art of Hardware Hacking" Might have to get this.

Bookmarked to return to at some point. Some of these I've heard, some I'd like to hear.

"The Po-2 biplanes flown by the Night Witches had an advantage over the faster, deadlier German Messerschmitts: their maximum speed was lower than the German planes’ stall speed, making them hard to shoot down." Flying by night, with no radar or radio, dropping bombs on German positions; remarkable women, all.
