Jason. Yes I read the "shoot out". Very informative, and thanks to both you and Matt. Yea, I hear great things about the Wiard. My only misgiving is the 1/8" thing. I used to play an Arp 2500 back in the bad old days, and those things were always flaking out. Seems like they won't take the insertion count necessary for heavy use, and there is just physically not enough contact area in the mechanics of it. I want the functionality of the modules, but don't want to go to a 3rd patch setup. I already use 1/4" and banana. Oh well,

Buchla, Serge, and MOTM modulars, and I'd say the Modcan holds its 
own.   Of course, each system has its own strengths.   I don't know if 
you're on the SMOG Serge users group, but Matt Wilson and I put both the 
Modcan and Serge through their paces in a modular "shoot-out"   The end 
result was give a little, take a little for both systems, IMO.    I'd love 
to do the same with Wiard in the mix.
