So, for the first time in my life I'm thinking about buying a synth. I'm sample heavy but I think a synth would add a lot and open up many possibilities. After all, I dislike VST's and using my computer for music in general so I think that having an extra hardware hands on sound source wouldn't hurt.
I also want to start experimenting with other genres as well (DnB, breakbeat, deep/tech house etc) where I think a synth would have a more primary role and sampling a more secondary one.
I'm thinking that I should start with a mono synth and if it works out I'll probably add a poly in the future. I can't play keys but I can put a few notes together.
I'm looking at the Moog Sub 37. It looks and sounds amazing. Is it a good choice? Anyone here who has one?
So, do you guys use hardware synths? How do you incorporate them in your music? Do they work for sample based hip hop? How essential are they to your setup and what genres are you using them for?
