Nords generally sound very good and are incredibly light and easy to move around.

Subject: [newmellotrongroup] OT modern synth recommendations

 
Dear all

It looks like I'll be playing abroad later this year, without being able to
take my regular rig (Jupiter-8, Taurus pedals, generic fake Hammond and
piano). I'm hoping to be able to use my Pro-One (which will fit in a
suitcase) to fake the Taurus and a mono synth patch I need, but I'll have to
hire something locally to cover everything else, i.e. overdriven Hammond,
piano and synth strings. I'm almost entirely ignorant of modern synths, so
does anyone have any recommendations for something I can ask for? Assuming I
get any choice, that is :-)

Many thanks in advance,

Andy T.
