Aries cont: MOST Aries modules were designed by Dennis Colin... who designed similar modules for the ARP 2500... so I'd describe Aries as an ARP spinoff, rather than MIT. The Aries Filter is a clone of the ARP odyssey. The Aries Oscillator is not very much like anything I've seen

As far as I know, the Aries modulars were produced by a group spun off from MIT. The early modules used 4 big knobs and later modules used up to 8 knobs. The first Wiard system was built on Aries module frames using 8 knobs and 16 jacks. I couldn't fit all the functions I wanted

Sorry for the lack of previous explanation. I Sent this mail and ebay link to wiard group due to Grants original enthusiasm for these synths and the apparent similarity in layou to MOTM and Wiard. --- thomas white wrote: > http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=14

hi colin, hi doc, The VCOs are very easy to tune because they are stable (the scale is always correct) and the Tune and Fine-tune Pots are very precise. It is even easy possible to tune the VCO without touching the Fine-tune knob! Something about the "bite" of Filters/Omni-Filter

Hi, The VCO's are VERY stable. But they are still very musical, not clinical at all. The waveforms are big, fat and not distorted. What I like most is it's linear-FM-Behaviour. Thats why I just ordered 2 more VCO's for my System to make big FM-Patches with four Oszillators. The O

Hi All, I am just finishing up the long awaited bank for the "blank socket" on the Blacet/Wiard Mini-Wave. This pushes the whole wavetable up to 512 waveforms. Emphasis in this bank is on signal processing, classic favorites and "freaky functions". A quick rundown: Bank # Name 0

Hi All, I got motivated by Gino Robair's standalone Borg Filter patch and dug out my notes for another standalone borg patch that I made before I got my borg in the rack. Please note:(the LEFT half of the module is 1, the RIGHT half is 2) It is quite dense and uses almost every j

Hi Gino, nice patch, I just tried it. ThanX for sharing it. It highlights what (IMHO) is an oft overlooked feature of the 300-series. that is,I've noticed that most of the Wiard 300 modules can be patched as a single dynamic voice- standing alone. It doesn't require a whole rack

Hi Grant, Great Idea! This would be sort of like the PAiA Gnome keyboard? One thing that worked well for me with the FPGA stuff was to run a guitar string (unwound) across an old Serge touch panel PCB. The guitar string was grounded, each pad had a weak pullup to 5v, and was abou

Just out of curiosity, how difficult would it be to make a "companion panel" for the Woggle bug? Basically, a Wiard format panel with JUST patch points on it to sit next to the Woggle in order to bring ALL the patch points out... Anybody thought about that? Grant? Les Mizzell ---

Grant, when you say stylophone keyboard, do you mean one that would be played with a pen or wand of some sort - or do you mean a touch keyboard of some sort that works with direct finger contact. How large will the keys be? Romeo on 10/27/01 8:55 AM, grantrichter2001@yahoo.com at

Hello, I dont have an envelator or Wiard at all for that matter (one day!!) So I am not really sure of the ins and outs, but if its a vc env gen then you can patch a negative voltage in somewhere to stretch out the segments of envelopment. (Techincal terms ; ) A good place to sta
