My mentor in audio, Mr. Bob Fulton, scoffed at Fourier.

Because his work is pretty hard to wriggle away from.

Wow, he scoffed at a historically famous mathmatician/physicist who's work from 200 years ago is so important that it is still used on a daily basis by scientists and engineers. This Bob Fulton must be quite a guy. I did a search on the ISI Web of Science citation index and couldn't find any papers by him and his ideas of Events Per Instance [EPI]. Google schollar didn't turn up anything either. Perhaps you can share his work with us. It must be fascinating.
Yes, I would have to find my "Events Per Instant" article and hand type it into a re-usable format. There is also a GREAT article he wrote called "Those Funny Little Wires" - about wire for audio, marvelous, that I personally think should be retyped and posted up here on this Forum.
There is an Electronics Engineer in Florida who has been prepping a web site, dedicated to the memory and work of Bob Fulton, but the site's opening seems to be always getting delayed.
I may, or may not, re-type that material. It will show up one day, but I can't refer you to it on line "today."
Point well taken about Fourier. I have to tell you, Bob was VERY dedicated to audio, and smart. Also, being a musician, recording engineer, choir director, and trumpet mouthpiece maker, he brought many positive qualities to the subject of audio. No one fills his shoes in audio for me since he died in 1988. Sorely missed.
