Some fun trivia: For those wondering what Muff Wiggler is, Muff's Forum has become THE forum for boutique modular gear. Users and manufacturers are active on the forum and many manufactures have their own sub-forums. It is run by Mike McGrath and originally started as a blog back on November 23rd of 2006. The first time I announced Muff Wiggler was back on December 4th, 2006 in this post. Prior to that I put up two posts featuring Mike, one on July 10th, 2006 and one on July 18th, 2006. Note in the modular world there are boutique manufacturers that sell pre-assembled modules, some that sell both modules and kits, and then those that design modules and provide schematics and instructions for the DIY crowd. I think the crown for the longest/oldest running company would be PAiA, who just started selling module kits again. Note Muff's forum has a DIY section, however the bulk of DIY seems to be on the electro-music.com forums along with probably the biggest Clavia Nord Modular forum.

  1. HA great video.

    I don't understand your statement, 'I think the crown for the longest/oldest running company would be PAiA'. Surely, Moog or Buchla are older, and Serge has been continuously running since before PAiA and even sold DIY stuff back in the day. Maybe you mean the longest/oldest running company who sells DIY stuff now?

  2. Continuous. Moog was offline and no current DIY. Serge went offline and is now run by Rex, or was it never offline? I forget. No current DIY via Serge though. Buchla never was DIY from what I recall. PAiA always was and never went offline from what I recall.

  3. No Serge never went offline. Just had a real slow period in the DX7 era and transfered over to REX.
