The minikorg soft synth is heaps of fun. Nice presets too.

This is WAY too relevant to my interests, lol. I spend more time with synths now than guitars.
VST wise, I super rate Arturia V-Collection just for breadth of sounds and U-He's Diva.

I've got a Roland SH101, a blue one, humpty dumpty it's broken.

they're lovely. Mine's boring old grey. Got a mod handle for it? I need to find one so I can rock out keytar style.
Such a unique and recognisable filter sound though, love it.

Yeah, gotta keep them together. would look weird with a blue handle anyway. I think 101s go for about 1300-1400 locally without case and mod-grip, that seems a bit steep tbh.

Yeah reverb.com tax.

This is pretty neat, a monthly challenge to create a track using just a single synth: https://sites.google.com/site/kvrosc/

I've had too many synths and have too many virtual synths. First was a DX21 back in about 1989. I used to noodle on the DX7 in the guitar shop I used to frequent, when it first came out. It was amazing.

Prior to that, I had a mate with a Wasp back in my early college days.
Since, I've owned most of the ones I coveted, my tastes are cheap in all things- synths, guitars, wine etc

Getting more enjoyment out of synths again and redoing my new order tribute setlist....

I reckon I've had about 12 of those too

I stopped buying the ones I coveted as they take up far too much room, even in rack form.

Can't beat the Solid Bass though...
