Wiardgroup

> I have considered asking Mike Fisher about the possibility of 
adding a sub-topic discussion page for folks willing to rip their 
Wiard warranties into little pieces (like i did) and modify Wiard 
circuits.  A sort of 'Mutant Wiard DIY' group but as there are very 
august and well-developed synth DIY groups out there, it might be 
narrowcasting a bit too much. but i'm delayed in bringing it up 
because my real-life circumstances are in frog-in-a-blender-mode 
right now and i don't have time to instigate or contribute.

i've been battling with the decision to modify all week.  not just 
the bleedthrough problem that i posted about, but i'm on the frac-rac 
plan, and the curcuit board enclosures for the 300 series are just 
too deep to fit.  everything else fits just right, and i'm 
envisioning something like mabuse's Small Nuclear Orchestra, but in a 
suitcase.  

then i start opening everything up and notice the little stabilizing 
daubs of caulk around the pots; the way the ribbon cables are the 
perfect length; the build quality is so well done, it seems a crime 
to tear it up.  

enh, i don't plan to gid rid of this stuff ever, might as well take 
off my jacket and stay awhile.  :)
