Re: Too Heavy to be a Drag

While I'm saddened to hear that the 300 series modules are being 
phased out, I'm happy to hear that does not mean the end of Wiard or 
of your work on designing new and interesting modules and sound 
makers.  I also hope that this will allow you more time to make 
music and other creative ventures.

I for one can't wait to see what comes next for Grant and Wiard.  
I've been lusting after the 300 series for quite some time, but the 
1200 series seems really promising, based on the Noise Ring (very 
cool demos, by the way), and is more my range (cheap quasi-
student).  In any event, that the 300 series was made at all is 
something that I consider a great thing for the world.  Stradivari 
made a limited number of violins (or del Gesu, to use a slightly 
less well known example of equal quality:), nor did Don Buchla make 
many Thunders (at least from my attempts to find one!), but the 
world is a better place for the ones they did make.  Same for the 
Wiard 300 series IMO.  

Thank you for all the hard work, and is there a waiting list for the 
Noise Ring yet?  :)
