Little background: I’ve sold off a ton of unused vst’s / some hardware, and now have ~ $2500 to spend on new gear. Throughout the process of saving up, I was pretty dead set on a Virus Ti2 Desktop. Recently I have been going down a rabbit hole lately thinking of other ways to hypothetically spend the money to get the most bang for my buck.
I primarily produce music that would be classified as progressive house / trance, sometimes even getting a little techy-sounding as well. I’m looking for a synth / synths that can cover as wide a sonic range as possible…from lush leads / pads, to more “ear candy” arps / sequences and atmos. I currently own a Subsequent 37, which I absolutely love.
Option 1: Virus Ti2
Option 2: Novation Peak + 1 synth from below
Option 3: Korg Minilogue XD (Desktop) + Korg Opsix + Hydrasynth (Desktop)
Option 4: OB-6 (Desktop)?!
