I have been working with Brice of Synthmodules.com to design a general purpose computer module for the Frac-Rac format. Past example of systems like this are the Buchla 300 and Buchla 500 series. Also the PAIA 8700 series had a general purpose computer. These were modular analog

A couple more notes on the JAG. It operates up to a full 20 kHz bandwidth, so you can combine audio waveforms. You could take two waveforms from the same VCO and generate 10 variations. As an effect unit, it is most like ring modulation or other non-linear mixing sound. Makes an

Hey Norman, I just tested the Equinoxe for about 5 Minutes, holding the Module in my Hand and patching it to the Wiard. So far: wonderful sound! It's not like the MoogerFooger (the MoogerFooger is a Love-Hate-Story). I will compare it to the MoogerFooger and the Omni-Allpass (and

Yes exactly! In this case it is clear a form of flattery. Too bad the color isn't the same blue and there are no keltish drawings. And no 8 LED's on the top. Its my form to praise my Wiard. But after a really really really long wait for Phil's CMS Modules (more than 2 years now)
