Hi,
Along with my SOLARIS, the three synths I would keep are (1) the Rhodes Chroma ( with the 96 Knob Enabler ), (2) the CS-80, and, (3) the KYMA Pacarana.
The ModCan modular that I already own is a polyphonic modular configuration so it can do any synth out there as it has all the filters, the VCO's the modulation and is fully MIDI equipped as well as HAKEN Continuum equipped. The CS80 has an amazing beautiful variety in tonal quality that is simply hypnotic. The KYMA is the most powerful digital synthesizer on this planet that money can buy commercially today - nothing in any league beats it for modular programming.
The SOLARIS gets you the PPG wavetables, the VS, and a really great performance layout: since my CS-80 is being MIDI equipped, I can layer it with the SOLARIS and do ribbon control or I can combine with KYMA and the ModCan modular - I can do any analog of any kind with this rig.
Now, would I really get rid of my much larger synth collection? Maybe ... would I get rid of the CS80 - no, the Solaris - no - the Kyma - no - or my ModCan Modular - no. Everything else could be sold (my Chroma, my Waldorf 1, the Sunsyn, amazing though the Sunsyn is, I can layer the ModCan with the Solaris and get that sound without any issues). The Nord G2X does not have the fidelity of SOLARIS, my dear old Emu-II+, Emu-III and Emu-IV (Hollywood Edition), Andromeda, and other keyboards could all be sold.
I do not own the Omega Code but I have heard that it is a great (like my ModCan, it has all the filters from the original circuits).
Thanks!
