Wiard/Blacet miniwave in MOTM Adaptor Panel

This image should give you a good idea of the size comparison between Frac and MOTM. The darker inner module is Frac and the outer MOTM.

"The front of my Wiard/Blacet miniwave. I've kept the original Blacet front panel, but added 1/4in phone jacks. It's installed into a Blacet> MOTM adaptor panel that Blacet used to sell. The row of 8 jacks at the bottom are 2 sets of 4 jack multiples."

  1. I don't understand why Blacet quit selling them. It was a great, easy way to get their stuff into a large-format synth.

  2. John Blacet's comment at the time he discontinued them was that they simply weren't cost effective. A large part of the expense was probably the emulation of the motm style paint. I bought a few more of these when he discontinued them. It probably wouldn't be too expensive to put together something similar using front panel designer and front panel express.
