The other vids will detail "how it works." In the next two we show the steps in synthesis and analysis, and the last on its operations details setting for sines or cosines, the pen mechanism, etc. The book also goes over this -- as you note the PDF is free. There is a direct download at the site, also a torrent. Two vids detailing what's in the book likely come out tomorrow and the day after . . . . Bill
