This is one of my observations on the whole modular world. Companies are quick to claim that their filter/VCO/bit wranlger is the best one around but many companies don't give audio demos. Given that many modules retail for well above pocket-money sums and that most of us can't pop in to the nearest retailer to try something out, demos that clearly give a flavour of the module should be essential. Indeed, I have often been convinced to part with my cash because of a good demos (Analogue Systems' Comb Filter, Tellun Corp's Neural Agoniser and the A-124 Wasp Filter, to name a few). Analogue Systems and Synthesis Technology (MOTM) are two of the better web-sites out there. Obviously, if you spend time researching, many examples of your intended purchase can be found but if I were trying to sell in what is a niche market, I'd be putting high-quality demos of my wares right next to the "Add to Basket" button in a single, easy to find location. Just my tuppen'arth.

Yours Aye
