Update: Re-Published on Nov 21, 2012 by GoldenCardiganCult
"**I have uploaded this again in the hope of getting rid of the horrible audio aliasing problems I had with the first upload**"

"A Dark Ambient Improvisation.

The Guitar is being processed by Guitar Rig and fed into the Ableton Looper plug-in.

The Modular is droning away with the Ian Fritz Chaos module providing most of the modulation, while my own Enigma module provides some extra chaotic modulation and random gates."

What is That Synth Worth?

Some good news on the eBay front. eBay now appears to keep ended auction listings all the way back through 2011! One question I commonly get is how much I think a given synth is worth. The answer is it depends on condition, supply and demand, and who's looking, but the easiest thing to do is to see what it went for on eBay. The problem until now was that eBay only kept ended listings up for 90 days. Well, it appears they have now made listings available all the way back through 2011. If you are curious what a given synth might fetch, search for it and the word auction on the top left here on MATRIXSYNTH and take a look at some listings. Remember to sort by date when the results come up if you want to view posts in order. You can also check out the condition items when for via the pics and descriptions.
