The missing manual
This is a very useful book to understand and full use of the Keys. Specially if you’re new to synthesis, you need this to learn how to properly explore this synth and get past the toy sounds and fart noises and produce deep, fat, real synth sounds. Tony writing is simple and straightforward but takes no shortcuts; every possible topic is explained in detail, often with pictures, audio and video. The book edition itself is an awesome piece of work.
