The Legendary Wiard 300 Series Modular Synthesizer

Recordings Using the Wiard

Amish Rake Fight: Fellow Prisoners In heavy rotation on the factory CD player. A nice symmetry, listening to music made with Wiard Synthesizers while actually building Wiard Synthesizers.
 
Mushroom: Mad Dogs and San Franciscans Doug Pearson appears on the Wiard modular musical instrument.
smoo: Traffic In My Soul Done almost entirely with six Wiard modules. An amazing technical accomplishment, but more importantly, an stunningly MUSICAL accomplishment. Can not be recommended highly enough. Olivier Gerber constantly delights.
Tortoise: Standards The first 3 minutes of "Benway" is synthesized entirely on the Wiard instrument. I would recommend this even if the Wiard were not on it. Tortoise continues to astonish and amaze with their shear musicality.
Scsiband: Watermark Ms. Felines voice is haunting. Produced on a digital audio workstation, Dr. Mabuse made extensive use of the Wiard for post processing digital audio tracks.
 
Russ Tolman: New Quadraphonic Highway This one blew me away. Steel Guitars, Banjos and Modular Synthesizer, Really a Blast! Doug Pearson's playing is excellent. They even put a picture of the instrument on the cover! The naive reviewer still refers to the Wiard as "vintage Moog". I chose to take this as a perverse compliment.
Isotope 217: Who Stole The I Walkman? Jazz Hip Hop fusion which really works. Feeling like classic "passed solos" the synthesizer solos keep the grove going with abstract rhythms and counterpoint.
F/i: Space Station Turn Century Turn Compilation on Mother West
