downloaded it from the access website for ye. and everyone else.
it's about programming analogue synths in general + virus.

Analyse what goes into professionaly built sounds, but don't fall into the trap I did initially of just trying to modify them. Good starting point once you know what you're doing, but it's a stumbling block in the beginning because you miss the point of the learning excersise.

Anwyay start with a competely clean slate and aim at doing REALLY simple stuff first. Set yourself goals of increasing complexity, and KEEP AT IT until you get that goal right. If you give up and load a preset beacuse you're frustrated that you can't make something decent you'll never learn. Patch authoring is as much a part of electronic composition as is sequencing. I'm still learning, and yes it's damn frustrating sometimes, but it's a great feeling to have a track with patches and samples that you've created completely by yourself. Not that anybody else would care :P
