Wiardgroup

Grant,

When I read that a unreleased design was coming out I flipped my wig. I will, no offense to any of the folks making licensed product will take the stuff however it will be.  

As I have said to you on the phone in the past, I would love to see any and all designs come to fruition. I strongly believe in The Wiard and can certainly live with some aesthetic limitations in an instrument I love a play every day.

I actually like the color variants in the blues for example, it adds an other worldly texture to the instrument.

I think those of us who have read your sites over and over have often hoped to see the Babble Box, the C/V Twister (WITH VIDEO IN & OUTPUT), The Walk About, Envelooper, aNTi Oscillator, the first version Tone Generator... That's all off the top of my head.

Yeah, I could be very happy with two of everything and will settle for whatever I can have the chance to add.

I know the gig can be very tiresome and I know  that people don't always appreciate it. So from me to you, do it for us.  

TD
