The Analog Systems (www.analogsystems.co.uk) 1/8" patch cables are nice, in my opinion. You can get them from Doug @ Enport - I think they're around $5 apiece and come in 4 colors. They're not long enough for -every- kind of patching but they are long enough for -most-. -----Orig

Hi all, Glad to see some conversation here! I don't know that any of these are good enough quality for the "files" section (about all you can make out is the row of lights across the top), but there are some photos of me playing Wiard (and Andromeda) with the band Mushroom here:

Hi all, I've created a "Wiard Pics" folder in the group files section, and invite everyone with the inclination to contribute a photo or two of their system/setup. In partciular I encourage contributing images that show your Wiard in context - how are you using it? What do you pa

First, I'd like to politely urge anyone with an interest in the subject of this group to thoroughly investigate www.musicsynthesizer.com and especially Grant's subpage therein. I have been immersed in analog modular synthesis since 1972 and I have never encountered a designer who

Grant, What features from the individual modules are going to be lost in the MicroWiard? Are you going to issue a power supply other than the wall wart? Can you give a few clues about the wierding modules? thanks, Richard __________________________________________________________

I should mention a bit about the genesis of the Wiard modules. The designs originated in 1995-1996 with input from the MEME group. At that time there was only Doepfer and Serge actually making modules. MOTM, Modcan, Blacet(new) and all the others have started up since then. 80% o

Regarding the durability of the Wiard 1/8" jacks - time will tell, but I've had my Wiard system for nearly two years and haven't had a single hitch. Granted, that's a relatively short time in the lifecycle of a modular, but I do a fair bit of patching, and whereas I -can- detect

Modcan is nice. Good build quality, nice feature set, and a really clean, precise sound generally. I've had my system for a couple weeks now, and I'm more than happy with it. I've had the chance to play with Moog, Buchla, Serge, and MOTM modulars, and I'd say the Modcan holds its

I'm not sure that banana plugs would be possible with the Wiard. One of its primary design attributes is many, many patch points. 1/8" jacks make this possible - I think you'd need an awful lot more panel space to use banana plugs. Mike -----Original Message----- From: Barry Mich

Jason, Barry Michael here. I don't own the Wiard either. Yet. I own a 7-panel STS/Serge system, and Rex Probe, who built my system, lives near the designer of the Wiard. He gives the unit rave reviews, and he is pretty hard to please. He syas Grant has "great ideas" and that the

Greetings to fellow Wiard-heads. The purpose of this forum is to encourage discussion about the Wiard modular - uses, patching, etc. etc. and to connect those of us who use the Wiard on a regular basis. Enjoy! Regards, Mike

Hi all: Jason here. Don't own any Wiard yet, but I'm planning on expanding my Modcan system (currently a panel and growing) with some of the nice modules Grant has designed. You can check out my studio, if you like at: http://concentricrotation.org How do you find the Borg filter
