After 18 months, my Blue Meanie is complete! I am posting a preliminary photo. Tremendous thanks to Grant for his efforts, and all of the other artisans that contributed in this project (Bill Maguire, welder/fabricator; Rainbow Powdercoat; Cynthia, Cyndustries for the 3 amp psu). In time, I will post better fotos of the system, but after I play with it for a while! Gary Chang

What a lovely sight, and an admirable system. Biiiig congrats. Also, good decision to make the case blue as well, IMO. Now how can I get the pictures to be displayed "full size" instead of "screen size"?

I have taken the first two photos of the Meanie down, replacing them with three newer shots, a front, side and back view of the system. The back view shows the dual power supplies - the top 1.5 amp supply powers the top 12 modules, isolating them for stability. The bottom 3 amp PSU supplies the bottom modules and will also power the table top console (which houses the Milton, 1200 series modules, etc.) When the wood work is finished, a wooden stand that matches the table top console will elevate the 24 modules off the table top, lining it up with the panel level of the console's modules. Unfortunately for me, Grant has already finished the 1200 series panels, so they will be BLACK.... Aargh! Gary

This is the nicest Synth I have ever saw. Since 2 years I am working every day on my 11-Module Wiard and am enjoying it so much. And, as I am not the guy making super-complicated sounds, it does sound wonderful with even not so complex patches. Yesterday I just made drones with the 4 VCO's in my System, modulating them very softly with filtered noise and LFO's. This is just blowing me away. And after checking that sound with all my modular filters I ended again with the Omni's (still love them!). At the moment, I plan to bring other brands into the Wiard 300 Format, I even plan to make them blue. I am looking everywhere to find these bakelite Davies 1900 H Knobs, but can't find them. But they are the best to touch. I would love to here sounds from your blue meanie!

i also think that is probably the most beautiful synth i have ever seen, you are one lucky fellow! i got to thinking about the price, and then realised that if you spent the same on a current sts serge system, although you would end up with a VERY nice system, it probabaly wouldn't be nearly as powerful. do you have a list of which 300 modules are included in your synth? i would also love to hear some of your patches made on this monster! gregg.

Interesting, that's a lot less expensive than if you buy them direct from the Davies factory! --- In wiardgroup@yahoogroups.com, liquidcolor@e... wrote:

they don't have the indicator line. You could get them from Mouser like that. Kinda useless that way. I have about 100 of them with no line that I bought about 7 years ago and haven't used. Anybody want those? I'll make a good deal with you. mark --- In wiardgroup@yahoogroups.com, liquidcolor@e... wrote: > MSC Direct has them at > > Quantities 1 - 99 > $1.30 > > Quantities 100 - 199 > $1.17 > > Quantities 200 - 499 > $1.11 > > Quantities 500 + > $1.04 > > Part# 01726884 > > Cheapest I've seen (since radio shack stopped offering them), but still

The part number is correct, 1900-h. The picture is wrong. They do have the line. I just recieved 100 of them yesterday. Get 'em while they're hot !
