SergeModular

Thats exactly what I thought!

So pre-orders welcome...

Another nice panel would be an "effects panel" made of all available
Modcan effect modules (spring reverb, analog delay, digital delay,
flanger, frequency shifter). Should not be that difficult to make as
Bruce already has the "banana" Modcan A series.

Last idea would be "controller panel" made of the new Wiard 2 HE
controller (2 joysticks, 2 jags).

Your ideas are welcome!
