i just got a big mess o cords from analogue haven - shortest ones are a foot long though. maybe you already saw that and that's why you're asking -- but any shorter than that would seem to cause a sort of tension between the jacks as the cord is subject to more extreme bending. a

Anyone know of a good source for 3.5mm patch cables in lengths shorter than 12 inches, perhaps 6 inches long? Thanks, Chris

I've been asked this alot. I need the cash for an investment - Simple as that. I know I will regret the sale at some point down the road. At this point I'm hoping modules inspired by the envelator, mixolator, and sequantizer find their way into the 1200 roster. --- In wiardgroup@

I was showing a friend of mine the auction, and told him I wouldn't sell my system for twice the price. Possibly three times the price, wherein I would immediately commission (read: ask nicely) for Grant to build me a replacement. I'm sure most of us hate selling any of our synth

Hi all, I have a cool unique Wiard 300 series case for sale... it originally came with my Wiard system that I no longer have (and regret selling, I might add). It is a really heavy duty metal case with space for 6 modules and a joystick panel. It's the first picture on this page:

Hi Grant ThanX! i'll try it when i get home. i've never touched iTunes but it's nice to know . i know it's a standard Mac tool but i've probably never even opened it. i suppose there's a slim chance that i might have deleted it in my zeal to trim overhead but i'll check tonight.

Hi Doc, iTunes is your audio import / mp3 encoding friend. And it's free. Go to "Preferences: Importing" and select mp3 as the encoder. Anything imported to the library will be converted to mp3. Or if it is already in the library, select it, right click and select "Convert Select

There's no such situation mentioned in ROHS directive, but explanation it can be easily expanded. It is forbidden to introduce new products non ROHS compliant into EU market. When someone imports used gear made after July 1st 2006 technically he/she introduces it into EU market.

There is a trimpot in the top center of the PCB labeled "Peak Q". This controls how much the Q gain is backed off with increasing frequency. You can turn it off, to eliminate the constant Q "feature". For filters with Red LEDs, you can patch constant Q. Assuming an Envelator "O +
2005-06-22 by grantrichter2001
That is what I was wondering about. Let's say a piece of equipment WAS assembled after 2006, is NOT RoHs compliant. Is it then forbidden to purchase such an item second hand for people in the EU? And who enforces that policy? --- In wiardgroup@yahoogroups.com, Roman wrote: > AFAI

Yes, Constant Q is something to think about. I have one early Omni- Filter without constant Q and one newer Omni, with Constant Q (and Blue LED's). Of course, a constant Q Filter is somehow easier to live with, but I don't want to miss my older Omni. In fact the sound of my older

Conformal coating is certainly a logical idea. The problem is that conformal coating produces VOCs, which are more polluting than the lead we are trying to reduce pollution from. Again, to the extent possible, Wiard uses "Green" technology. Everything that can be recycled, is rec

AFAIK, this regulation applies only to equipment ASSEMBLED after 2006, using, reusing, and recycling old gear is not prohibited. Even more, it's still legal to use leaded solder and leaded parts for repairs of old (pre 2006 that is) stuff. About inferior longevity - I think you c

Hello Norman, I have not seen any information to say that lead free electronic assemblies perform better or last longer than assemblies which contain lead. To the extent possible, all Wiard products are built using "archival" design and assembly techniques. The aim is to produce

2005-06-20 by drmabuce
Hi 'paradigmshiftbeats' With both Olivier and Gary responding to your query, you've heard from two guys who have done some superlative work with the Omni and they have focused on the sound of the filter. i certainly have nothing to add in that admittedly subjective area. (i own a
2005-06-20 by Gary Chang
I have to agree with Olivier - the Omni is quite a useful filter - I have a first generation "The Filter" and the last version of "The Super Omni" - after several months of use, it became obvious that the Super was quite a performer, with many features, such as an adjustable "con

It's my favorite Filter. Resonance is a bit hard to control, but when you know exactly how it reacts to resonance, its wonderful. Its powerful, round and organic. I especially love it for the dry basses and what it does to external Synths (Pads and stuff). And its not only the Lo

I don't have this module, and it seems to be less talked about than many of Grant's other modules. I recognize that sound is a very subjective arena, but I hoped a few of you might offer your own descriptions of the character of this module. Is it reminiscent of another classic s

Not to "speak" for Grant, but in *general* terms: a) current pcbs have lead because the copper traces are coated with solder. There are alternate pcb "coatings" that are lead-free. b) All SMT (surface mounted) parts will be lead-free by December. The RoHS directive takes effect J
