John, it occurs to me that as the Wiard's pots, sockets and LEDs are not 
circuit board mounted, if there are any of the modules whose functions, 
sound etc are interesting to you, you could have Synthesizers.com - 
style front panels made up to take them.  The Wiard is powered by a 
+15v/0/-15v DC supply, so that part of interfacing it would be no 
problem. Larry Hendry and Cynthia Webster have produced panels to bring 
other makers' modules into the MOTM and ModCan systems respectively, as 
you've no doubt seen, so perhaps you could do the same for your system! 
Admit it!  This is an excellent idea!  Get to work man - your fellow 
Arriquistes await!  (I dunno what Grant R wd make of this suggestion, 
though he does do custom colour panels - there's a red one & a silver 
one pictured in the files sect IIRC)

I heartily recommend the Omni Filter and Borg Filters to you as two of 
the finest analogue synthesiser modules available to-day!


(PS I have several email address nom-de-plumes because it comes in handy 
to track where the SPAM is coming from, haha that's the same spam that 
they carefully research yer web usage so as to target you, before 
sending the same bloody herbal vi*gra & expand yr member garbage they 
send to everyone else.  Plus, er, it's phun!)

best wishes
