Can anyone read transistor-based schematics?

[dehuszar]

I have come across some hand-drawn audio gear schematics (synths, FX, and the like) for a few old school transistor based devices. I don't want to get into details as I'm not sure whether I might create unwanted liabilites for the Z.

But anyone who is fluent in these types of diagrams that can help me might create some cool private (not for resale, especially until I figure out what it is that I have) Modular projects. I've been wanting to learn Modular/Flexor (need Flexor 2 once I have money and can prove that I'd even use it) and this might push me, and perhaps others forward towards a Modular life.

Anyone who thinks they may be able to help should contact me privately at dehuszar AT unitsuit DOT org. Hopefully everyone knows how to navigate the SPAMBOT chopping of my email address.

Thanks in advance,
Sam

What you can use is a free Spice electronic emulator/simulator or other electronic simulators available out there. For example Linear Technologies offers a free simulator Switchercad III that you can download here:

http://www.linear.com/software/

You should also download the Spice models available lower on the page.

Or you can get CircuitMaker the student edition for free also from here:
http://www.microcode.com/downloads/student.htm

This software will allow you to enter an electronic schematic and then probe "virtually" different points in the circuit.
There are other major companies that offer similar packages for thousands of dollars like Protel Altium, OrCAD, VisualSpice, MultiCap etc.
