Ok, Now that the power is taken care of (presumably), the other issue is creating an enclosure for you modules. The most daunting task - attaching the modules can be achieved relatively simply by utilizing the Vector Electronics T-Strut, which is an aluminum extrusion that has a

Mike, The French Connection is a fantastic controller, offering both stepwise and portamento articulation. I have been a long time fan of Olivier Messiaen, who wrote many of the most definitive works for orchestra and the ONDES MARTENOT, the early early electronic music instrumen

All transpositions should be possible at the controller. But to save money, digital systems have no negative supply and cannot add the correct negative offset to satisfy the mathematics. The normal 10 octave control range of the coarse tuning knobs covers the audible 20 Hz to 20,

I am just sending off a couple of Mixolators to Grant for modifications - the metering mod is the best! This mod allows one of the mixolators to display its stereo output on both of the led arrays. It is switched from a pull-switch pot, and, when a signal is present at any of the

Very estute, Mark... ;-) (Or maybe I am simply a newcomer to this stuff). Not to pick at a seemingly scarred-over wound, but I like the Blue Faceplates. It is great that Grant now has an alternative to offer this. Those of us with 300s can have matching 1200 modules and Grant can

Yeah, I know. It has been months since the end of the 300 Series, and I have gone off the deep end. I have pursuaded Grant to make Blue Wiard 1200 series faceplates, complete with the Lions! They won't exactly match the 300, (because they are actually engraved instead of silkscre

Like the Buchla, I think that the "classic" Wiard patch has two filters in the circuit. In the Buchla, it is the bandpass filter and the lowpass gate. In the Wiard, it is the Omni and the Borg. I use them in tandem in every patch. When using the Omni as the featured filter, I wil

Hi All - Gary's posts about the JAG + Blacet Dual VCA had some references to mults. I know the Wiard 300 modules have lots of patching options, but the Blacet modules do not have as many. In fact it is so restricted that I built this mult - easy build, and cheap, too. Inspired by
