Actually, I think that our past discussion comparing the WB to the
Blacet module....

Let me first say that this comparison is VERY general.

To be fair, the Heisenberg, WB and the Serge Smooth and Stepped
Generator have one thing in common - they are the result of a designer
who has spent a lot of time with a Buchla 265 Sources of Uncertainty.

The 256's idea - sampling a lfo that is being modulated by a noise
source - is the basis of each of these modules, so that is where there
is similarity - and why the Blacet module is not similar.

I think that each and everyone of the designers of these devices can
tell you that getting interesting stepped information out of these
guys is pretty interesting and easy - what is the bitch is to get
really musical smooth movement.  In this regard, the Woggle Bug is my
choice.

Grant has added mods, such as a true analog noise source to the WB,
making the smooth generator respond very similarly to the 256 in the
smooth mode.

The resourceful designer that he is, Grant's module has actual audio
outputs, which makes learning how to train your new WB to do stuff
much simpler.

So, each is a three bedroom condo, based on a Frank Loyd Wright
Design.  Other that that, the are completely unique!
