Roland SH-101 for true analogue sound and Yamaha V50 for digital nastiness.
My buddy also has a Roland D70 which I'm a bit jealous of (weird sounds).

Yep, they're all old! They're all synths though, not 'workstations' lol..

The Gaia was fun, pretty digital sounding tho. Stack 3 osc and hammer on something crazy. Plastic as hell, they must have taken the keys from one of those "my first keyboards" from radio shack. My only issue was it sounded too crisp, no dirt or hiccups. Had to run it through fx to soften it up.

the minibrute is dope. i played a moog prodigy from a friend and if i had the money i would get some kind of old moog. but the minibrute is a little more versatile i think. different sound range off course.

i have the korg ex-800 which is the poly 800 without keys. the sequencer is easy and fun but the sound programming is a lot of pushing buttons but still relatively easy. i find it has a fat sound.

I only got a Micron and it's all I've ever felt I really needed. Covers all bases for me, but I'm totally eyeballing those new analog korg boxes... ;)

had one of those for a while but recently sold it. good synth came with great presets to fuck with, just didnt like the lack of knobs and no way of initializing a patch. so i bought a gaia and now im in love. beautiful tones and i truly feel like i can achieve any sound with it.
