[PD] pd book sprint

[Alexandre Porres]

sure, I could do both.
But I think it would be inportant to start just after


   - AUDIO TUTORIALS
   - SimpleSynthIntroduction<http://en.flossmanuals.net/PureData/SimpleSynthIntroduction>


and before the oscilators with the Short DC offset chapter.

Then edit and correct the oscilator patches with values from -1 to 1

I also can create and put in the oscilator chapter a Triangle wave oscilator
made with phasor

what do you say?

Cheers
