Re: [wiardgroup] Live Wiard?

Funny you should ask, I've been playing live with my Wiard/Serge/Paia/Whatever setup once a month since Christmas, it's great fun. I'll throw some pictures up from the last gig soon. This is mainly drone type material where the filter settings and oscillator frequencies get changed every once in a while, and on top of that goes E-bow guitar. The basic method for live performance is a "super patch" which has everything the might be needed. Sometimes a patch cord gets pulled out or moved for dramatic effect. Two of the oscillators in the system are actually PLLs on a heavily hacked "wogglebug clone" PC board I bought from Romeo Fahl early this year. The idea is to put dividers in the feedback loop of the PLLs as well as prescale for Just Intonation. It's only partway working but is already pretty interesting (to me anyway :). The other VCO is my trusty Wiard Classic VCO which is serial number 1. Steve C http://curtin.emf.org/ (old pictures up there, new ones coming soon) At 05:22 PM 7/2/2004, you wrote:
