Definitely a couple of synths.
I would say one REALLY nice POLY machine for between 1000-2500:Oberheim Xpander, Jupiter 6, Jupiter 4, Prophet 5, one of the Oberheim OB's, Andromeda, Korg Trident etc..
One really big sounding mono for less than 1000: Arp Odyssey, SH-101, SH-2, Moog Prodigy, Moog Source, Korg Monopoly, Yamaha CS-15, SC Pro-one, Oberheim SEM, SE-1X, or even a cheaper one like the Moog MG-1 (which I love!).
And a couple more cheaper Poly's machines to fill out the rest of the sounds you might need: Roland Juno's, Roland MKS's, Roland JX's, Yamaha DX's/TX's, Oberheim Matrix-1000, Korg Poly's, Akai AX's, Kawai SX's, Siel DK's..
I would suggest a nice vintage sampler that has loads of character and is cheap... my first suggestions would be the Akai S-900/950 and E-Mu Emax I which can both be had for around 200.
Nice outboard is of course of prime importance. 4000$... lot of options, lot of hard decisions. But I would go with one big nice Poly, one big nice Mono, one ultra cheap vintage Sampler, and the rest to fill in the gaps.
Of course depending on the kind of music you make, suggestions get pushed around a bit.

What do you slutz recommend? One BIG analog synth, or a couple of them? I'm lost here. |
