Hello again,
forgot to mention that I got my Wiard Mini Wave module today in the
grandious Frac Rak format. I am a little dissappointed with the quality of
the silkscreen and the knob spacing is all tight for a three space fracker.
But, this thing is a VERY cool addition to the MOTM and it makes all kinds
of clavinet and pulse and random waveshapes. It can even be a quantizer I
guess, or so it says in the manual. It has an EPROM base and it has 16 banks
of 16 waves (256 total). There is a list of waveshapes on the wiard web
page. The env select in lets you roughly snap between all of the 16
waveforms in a bank like with an LFO or Env Gen.
Got mine prebuilt and tested (against normal procedure) for the kit price
because the kit is not happening anymore and I was lucky enough to have
pre-ordered. Pre built is $200 I think. Who will be the first to MOTM-ify
this thing? Very nice timbres and smooth tracking as well. Not as low bit
type of sounds as I would have expected, very quality.

PS. I think there is enough room to drill out the 1/8" jacks to add 1/4" but
its up to you. The pots are the 16mm carbon cheapies but the application
they are in is not as critical as say cutoff on a filter. The locking of
waves and banks is very accurate as well so I can live with it.
