> Yeah I agree on that one...I just compared the virus or the nova as
companion to the yamaha... I think you might wanna look at a non-yamaha
rompler tho. I own the cs2x and MANY of it's sounds are sampled from the
an1x and the fx etc. sound very same-ish.
Er, I do have an EX5, you know. :)

different: fm or wavetable?
I wouldn't mind an FS1r, because it offers a lot of interesting sounds and
possibilities. I'm not really into the weirder kinds of synthesis: for
instance, I decided not to buy a K5000S, although I'll probably regret it,
and not regret it, for the rest of my life.
I'm interested in nice sounds and what can be accomplished with them. That
means: an excellent VA synth like a Virus or a Supernova, and a sampler with
a very good piano sound (because a real piano is way too expensive and big).
The whole lot I would want to throw into a surround mix, and see what can be
done with that.
