Hi Pierre
just a thought...
Grant was generous enough to post the schematics for the wogglebug
circuit on musicsynthesizer.com.
http://www.musicsynthesizer.com/WoggleBug/WoggleBug.html
(the schematic is under this hypertext link:)
Download Schematic Diagram of the #3 Standard WoggleBug (911K)
Even if he decides to redo the Wbug in SMT and scale it down to a
single circuit for the 1200 series, it's a certainty that it will not
happen soon or quickly. If you are handy with a soldering iron (or can
access someone with a modest portion of DIY skills) the Wbug #3
circuit can be assembled at an unhurried pace in a weekend with time
leftover for couple of nice dinners!
Then if Grant does decide to release a 1200 series Wbug you could
still buy one and have a good equivalent of the 300-series dual Wbug.
I know that other list members beside myself have built them
(Romeo, for one...if memory serves...).
At least part of Grant's intention in posting the schematic was to
educate and inform hobbyists (like myself) in how simple such a deeply
chaotic system can be. If nothing else, take a look at the diagrams.
They're amazing in their elegance considering the complexity of the
output.
The Wbug#3 circuit is also a great 'basic recipe' core design for
experimentation.
Carpe uhhhhhhhh hmmmmmmmmmmmm....(let's see what would the word be?)
Carpe ......soldering iron... i guess!!

PS:
i know in my heart that Dave Vosh will build one someday

The Wogglebug 3 is not hard to build, plus there are simple mods that you can do to it, like adding a sync input to the 555, a second RM, etc.... It's a veritable fountain of bubbly chaos.

I've asked this numerous times, but alas apparently will not happen. I would buy on now. An option (because of size) could be to have a 1200 module that is a single channel bug (the 300 hundred has 2 separate channels). In that case, I might buy two :) Mike --- In wiardgroup@yahoogroups.com, "Pierre Zeeman" <pierrezee@...> wrote:

I really want to make a 1200 series Woggle Bug. It is Wiards most popular product. The original design work went up to version #6, which included a not that successful full time "wind/surf" patch. Mike Murphy has the prototype. Just like the Borg 2, I want to add an additional flavor to the design. Make a version #7. An idea for that version #7 actually popped into my head today, so the Wiard synergy is still going on. It involves adding an option to un-linearizing the "lock" circuit to add more freak out to the blipping, so woggle transitions are woggly AND chaotic. That is the official technical description. ;^) I like to add something new, so the 1200 series isn't just a duplicate of the 300 series version. It is my personal aesthetic, but also so customers who already own the 300 series version have reason to add the 1200 series version. One technical challenge is the 300 series "Bugs" make use of 10 jacks and 5 controls. 8 jacks and 4 controls is pretty much the limit for a 3 inch Frac-Rac module. But 4.5" modules are awkward in the Frac format. As always, thank you for your support, and for contributing to this community. --- In wiardgroup@yahoogroups.com, "Pierre Zeeman" <pierrezee@...> wrote:

I didn't know they were up that high (revision-wise.) If I end up building one, I shall have to reserve #16 or something. :) The #16 Standard Wogglebug! Now that I know you're thinking about making an official 1200 series bug though, I might just wait for that, and put my experimentation resources into something different. (currently trying to desgin a SID compatible module minus the filter section) 3 phase accumulation oscillators that route the same way the SID does, for that pseudo ring modulation and other weirdness. --- In wiardgroup@yahoogroups.com, "Grant Richter" <grichter@...> wrote: > > I really want to make a 1200 series Woggle Bug.

lovely. the idea i have for my portable case has expanded, and I have room for whatever size you make it. 4.5" of woggle will be just fine by me. woo! if wiard made a half frac sized module what would it be???

I'd be interested in this also. I was thinking of the JAG for the 2nd (or is it 3rd rack) I'm planning..so I already had the issue of a half space, especially as I've decided the blue versions will be the way I go.On the other hand, it will have to be quick. The EU is looking at a paper just arrived from Prof. P.L Mandragora on Pisa University who is about to declare the Woggle bug as a major pest on salad crops.regards, Mark
