Its pretty strait forward, if u had to pick 3 hardware synths what would they be?

here is my list......

one of the sexiest roland synths ever made, the Jupiter 6

a real Arp 2600.

finally the ever so sexy EMS Synthi.

My fantasy list would be, size and money no problem:

Roland Jupiter-8 with Encore midi
Yamaha CS-80
Moog Modular System 55 with both 901 and 921 VCOs

But practicality would say that I should go for something like:

Roland V-Synth
Roland SH-1
Oberheim OB-8

But reality says I really should stick with what I have got and stop dreaming...

Well, since a couple of my other favorites were already listed, I will show the one that hasn't been named which I have been dreaming about since it's inception:

im pretty happy with what i have right now, so the next 3 logical choices would be:

Oberheim - Matrix 12 (or Expander)

Dave Smith - Poly Evolver (monophonic is not enough

)

and another vote for the ARP - 2600. These things have a mind of their own!

in random order;

DSI Poly Evolver.. I have the Mono.. best concept since years.. great digital/analog marriage..

ARP Odyssey. ARP has one of the most musical filters ever..
Has 2 voices!

PPG Wave.. droool.. also great digital/analog marriage..

but I would trash all 3 of them for this one..
Say hello to the bad guy; the Korg PS-3300..
48 voices of raw analog mayhem..
My MS-20 fits 48x in there..

pearl syncussion + 2 pads
korg ms20
roland sh-09

i would not feel scared taking these out of the house.

I think it's already been covered but here's mine:

A brand new Buchla
Serge
Moog Model 55

And a SHITLOAD of patch cables

Non-modular would be:

Jupiter 8 (I'd be happy just staring at it, they're so pretty)
DSI Poly Evolver (The Evolver architecture realy shines as a poly)
The Cat by Octave. My first synth. Purely for nostalgia.
