What I paid was entirely unreasonable, I got it for next to nothing :cool:

Hey guys, I'm trying to delve into the realm of synths for my current band and also to screw around at home. I'm looking something between the ranges of 600-800 and used is fine. Looking for some cool sounds that sit in the mix rather than anything that jump out of it. Some decent pads, decent program-ability, would like some nice bass sounds. Just an all arounder to get my feet wet.

I've been looking at the Mohpo, Microkorg, Mininova as far as recent stuff goes that's in my relative price range. I know monophonic doesn't lead well to evolving pads, but I assume I could just do those using something akin to massive.

Anyhelp would be appreciated, also this will be for live use more than anything else. If I forgot to mention anything to make this less generic, just tell me!

I got Novation Ultranova for the exact purpose. It goes for $400 used and there are decent regular size keys with aftertouch. It can a little overwhelming at first, because there are a lot of parameters to tweak, but reading manual certainly helps. It's pretty versatile and touch encoders are so much fun for live use.

If you're just starting out and you want something that covers plenty of bases I don't see how you could go wrong with the Microkorg XL, which fits very comfortably into your budget and leaves money for fuzz or something. Of course it doesn't match up to a proper analog or one of those high-end workstations but for the price and the amount of sounds you get, not to mention ample tweakability for you to get the basics down pat, it's a great buy. I own a Lead 2x and a Voyager and I still use the microkorg, it's been rock solid.
