Unfortunately and fortunately (I don't know hahah) no. I use software synths, mostly because of the price, but I'd love to try one hardware, especially the legendary juno106 or jp8000

I run a hybrid studio with a very high powered Intel i9 pc but I have a load of hardware too.
Yamaha Montage. Best keybed I've ever played. Really advanced FM engine. Very high polyphony. I like to run other synths through its Incredible fx engine.
Sequential Prophet 6 desktop. My go to analogue poly. Can sound like a Juno and JX.
Moog Sub Phatty. Nothing comes close to this for the ultimate sync lead sounds.
Roland D-05. Has all the classic D-50 sounds.
Roland JU-06A. It's good but TAL Uno is better.
Yamaha EX5R (soon to be replaced with Modal Cobalt).
Roland TB-303 (I used to make a lot of techno)
ASM Hydrasynth desktop. Great allrounder.
Akai MPC Live mk2. I used to own a lot of drum machines but nothing comes close to what this can do.
I've owned a lot of gear over the past 32 years. Check this out

Not sure if this is against the rules or not. Please delete if it is.
I have a Yamaha EX5R for sale if anyone here is interested?
