I grew up obsessing over synths in the '70s and '80s (I listened to Yes, Tangerine Dream, Vangelis etc.). Now I’m a programmer who writes (more accurately wrote) software synthesizer apps, and I find it amusing that my cheap smartphone from ten years ago has orders of magnitude more sound generation power than those keyboard-based beasts from my childhood did.
That being said, I would probably be willing to kill somebody to get my hands on an original Moog to play around with.
Yeah those Moog’s are insane. But the Behringer clones are also super nice. And imo nothing beats the sound of an analog synth. With those new Behringer clones you also have a USB connection supporting midi, so you can mix them very well with any DAW.
