Wiard | Modular |
|
Description | The Wiard Modular System is a modern analog modular synthesizer system with patching and dozens of knobs and LEDs. It can also be quite affordable, with modules starting under $400. Wiard Modules include a Classic Analog VCO, Sequantizer, Waveform City, Envelator, Mixolator, Filter and the new Borg Filter. Although intended to be used as a set, they can be used with other vintage analog CV/Gate equipped gear! The modules provide most functions found on classic modular systems. Highly flexible envelopes, filters, LFO and oscillator sections as well as Sequencer and Mixer sections. There are also new twists on some of these modules such as in Waveform City where an analog VCO is controlled by a digital ROM based waveshaper...and the Sequantizer is an 8-stage sequencer with some tricks up its sleeve. The new Borg filter comes from combining features from the Buchla Model 292 Low-pass Gate and the Korg MS-series High and Low-Pass Filters. Designed to be rack-mounted, the Wiard system holds up to 6 modules with over 20 combined synthesis and control functions. However, individual modules can also be purchased for use as analog effects and dynamic processors with your existing analog gear! The modules use 3.5mm mini-jacks for patching as well as firm-wired routings via back-panel jumpers. |

Velocity | As with a piano, the harder you hit a key, the louder the sound, unlike most organs which always produce the same loudness no matter how hard you hit a key. | Aftertouch | Pressing a key after you activated it. Channel Aftertouch, no matter which key, it will send a Channel message. Poly Aftertouch, sends the pressure per key instead of the whole channel. |
Values for OSC, LFO, Filter, Envelope are per voice unless stated otherwise. |
