Eat your own dog food, as they say. I'm not a developer, but I'm writing a book for a piece of audio equipment I know and love which has an enthusiastic user base but a rather cryptic manual. After yet another day of informal product support on the forums I asked if anyone would be willing to throw down a few bucks for an e-book and the response was overwhelming.

I'm skeptical about stories of parachuting in and solving problems on a short timescale. It's possible but but you need to build your credibility first. I've been using synths and audio FX for ~15 years and only now am I beginning to feel that I have mastery of this particular craft.
