I generally prefer to use hardware over software as it just fits into my workflow better. I nought myself a Sequential Prophet 6 for my birthday last year and I can't stop playing it. With the recent addition of the vintage knob it just oozes analog warmth. What's your favorite synth that you own?

I own a (mostly) self designed and self-built modular synth. So that obviously is my favorite synth...

My Wasp-clone (a Jasper, from the UK dude).

I like it more than the Arturia Microbrute, it's pretty slick.

Mind you, the Easel is hard on it's heels...

It’s a toss up between a bunch of things...

My Jupiter 6. Lush, rich, unbelievable sounding and can get into some seriously uncharted territory with the cross mod.

MS20- just.... yeah.

My euro modular- it’s a continual learning experience, and I very much enjoy the aspect of having multiple eureka moments within a session.

There’s more, but I’m sticking to 3!!

I find myself constantly coming back to my Alesis QS8, but for processing/mangling, nothing beats my MS20.

That's a difficult question for me but I would have to say that my favorite hardware synthesizer is the Moog DFAM. I have a 4-tier rack with two Moog Mother 32s and two Moog DFAMs. I have a very large eurorack system and I really love all of the modules as well but there are so many of them, it's hard to pick out a favorite. I just purchased a TiNRS Tuesday and plan to do some generative patching with it when I can find some spare time for my studio. It could very well become my favorite along with the After Later Audio Benjolin V2. I really enjoy doing generative music.

It's difficult to pick one synth.

That said, I've been using the Roland MC-101 a lot recently, mostly for the sequencer. That it's small is a good thing, too, even if some of its limitations are a bit frustrating at times.
