Wiard

Wiard emerged in 1999 when Grant Richter founded the brand and created the distinctive Wiard 300 modular synthesizer format in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Richter's designs blended dance music influences with avant-garde features, introducing innovative modules like the Waveform City oscillator, Envelator envelope generator, and Borg Filter. In 2012, Cary Grace of Wessex Analogue took over manufacturing, continuing to assemble new modules on request while preserving the original 6U rack-mounted system.
