hello,

the a137 is my favorite wave multiplier, because it
has the most flexible sound. no other design has
as many parameters as the a137 has, not to mention
the extensive vc-capabilities. if i had to choose
only one wave multiplier for myself, then i would
take the a137. the module incorporates one very complex
wave mutliplier and offers one output.

the bananalogue serge wvx is also a great module.
it can handle two input signals independently, it even
has three different wave mutlipliers inside (one complex and
two more simpler circuits) and it gives you up to five signal
outputs. but ... each multiplier has only one parameter,
so the wvx is not as flexible in sound as the a137 is,
even with it's three different wave mutliplier circuits.
imho it is also a bigger effort to patch up a wxv, because
it has no attenuators, so you will probably need some
additional modules to get the most out of the wvx.

both modules are worth having for me, because they are different.
the wvx is good if you want that classic serge sound and
if you want to derive more than one timbre at the same time.
the a137 is good if you want the most flexible sound and
extensive voltage control capabilities.

regarding the price, i guess the wvx is greater in price because
of the different ingrediences of the module, but also
because the wvx is hand-built in small quantities.

best wishes

ingo
