> A Wiard Osc isn't just an oscillator.  Aside from the usual waveform outputs, the random output gives a noise-type of signal, and a psuedo random when in low frequency position.  The module also contains a VCA with two mixer inputs and a function generator that can be used as an envelope generator or an envelope follower, similar to a universal slope generator on Serge origin.  A jumper switches from linear to logorthmic output.  The VCA and EG can be used as separate modules, so in this one module you actually have an osc, vca, eg and noise.

	Construction of the module is something of value.  All pots are 
board mounted and are connected to the circuit board via sockets, 
allowing for easy replacement in the field.  The jack field is mounted 
on a separate pc board, connected with a socket, so replacing them 
takes ten minutes in the field.  On each module there is an array of 
leds at the top of the faceplate.  The first four act like a mini vu 
meter, giving you the state of the oscillator in low frequency 
position.  The next three reflect the position of each waveform (sine, 
square and saw). The fourth is the state of the envelope generators.

You can find out about all of this simply by reading the manuals that 
are posted on the Wiard webcite.
