I would like to be more positive, but wishful thinking or "meaning well" will not get the job done. Paul Schrieber, Bruce Duncan and myself worked our a*s's off for year to establish the modular market place as a safe place to do business. (after the Don Martin debacle) Our hard

Cynthia, Good luck with the oscillator. Personally, supporting multiple formats looks like a way to lose 5 times as much money, while increasing vendor and delivery problems by the square of 5. Lets hope I'm wrong.

Hi Bob! Had to think about your request for a little while, and am sorry to say that due to the extremely tight tolerances of the assembly of six circuit boards, there is just no way to get to the jacks to wire them up as bananas. (If there were a minimum of (30) FracBanana order

I had a chat with Grant today that I think that many Wiard 300 owners will like - Grant is going to create 300 series form factor faceplates for the Boogie and the Borg2 - putting 2 x 1200 series modules one over the other in a vertical pair. These are 300 panels in dimension - t

That should have read bi-polar control voltage. A the negative half of a bi-polar LFO is at -5 volt which will move the filter down 5 octaves. The 1 or 2 octave keyboard control voltage will not be able to compensate. --- In wiardgroup@yahoogroups.com, "Bryan E Cornell" wrote: >

2005-12-03 by grantrichter2001
Not sure what is up with that. The basic idea is simple. If you use an evelope to sweep a filter, as the oscillator pitch changes, the extent of envelope sweep remains constant. So high notes have fewer harmonics than low notes. By adding the keyboard voltage, you move the filter

I'm having a bit of a problem (I think) with the key input of my Boogie filter. I assumed that you are meant to plug a keyboard cv in here so that the filter will follow the keyboard. Is this correct? When I tried this, all my low notes were very quiet and the high notes were lou

Of course you meant the little envelope generator inside the Classic VCO and not the VCA. The Classic VCO has three seperate modules in the one box, VCO, VCA and AR envelope/envelope follower. You can also feed audio into the "Gate" input and the envelope output will follow the p

Discovered a neat trick today with the omni filter. Run a cv into it, set it to low pass. Run a voltage into the FC2 and adjust to invert it so you can lower the frequency of the filter way below minimum. This will give you noticeable slew times. Otherwise the frequency of the fi
