If you'd like to get a little friendlier with your synthesizers are driven to squeeze as much as you can from them, this free resource is chock full of basic synthesis theory and programming advice/tips. Even though it's ostensibly about programming the Yamaha SY-77, just about any aspiring programmer on any machine can learn a bunch. If you've got a litle savvy and some motivation, you might not need to buy another hundred sound design presets; you could just roll your own and save big $.
As translated white papers go, this one's pretty easy to grok, 'til you get to the math and science portions at the end.
