I produce modern Tech-House. I have been using plug ins that I really like, such as Korg Mono-Poly, Jupiter 8-v, Predator... I have been using these plug ins a lot.
I have 2 real analog synths, a Moog Voyager and Alesis Andromeda. For some reason you might think Im crazy, but the Moog Voyager is not cutting it for the music I make, the A6 sounds more "modern" in a way.
I was thinking if it makes sense to sell the Moog and go for something like a Roland JP-6 and or Korg MonoPoly, just because I really like the plug in version, I would imagine the real thing is better? The Moog sounds beefy, but cant get modern sound out of it.
would you sale the moog for those 2? or is my Andromeda capable of emulating the JP-6, JP-8 and the Korg?

no disrespect but IMHO that is down to how you program it. there's no reason why the MMV should not sound modern. in fact, it is certainly more versatile and "modern" than most analog synths out there. The fiilter topology for instance is extremely more versatile than the bog-standard 24 dB low pass found in most synths.

On the other point: the JP-8 is one of the few polysynths that i would like to have next to my A6. The Andromeda can do a lot but it just doesnt sound like a JP-8 at all in my experience.
