does it make sence getting synths now?

    Why would I need that, if I already have it? Why won't you just accept my personal judgement?

    If you want to go on and ruin your own life by spending thousands of dollars on a nowadays hoax, go right ahead! Because that's what it is! Manufacturers want you to believe that their expensive hardware is unsurpassed. People like you want me to believe that if I don't agree with you there must be something wrong with me or my 'preamps'? Well, I can tell you it's not me, but it's something between your own ears. You just want to desperately believe that true analogue synths sound better than digital ones.

    It's about the same as people that believe that vinyl records always sound better than whatever digital opposite. It's a way of life I guess? But it's mainly between the ears of the listeners head and certainly no exact science.

    The pure fact in music today is, no listener of your music will never ever hear the difference in whatever production you make with true analogue synths as opposed to using 'top tier' virtual instruments. If people like your music it's not because you used true analogue synths with 'top tier, clocking/conversion and a preamps'. It's because of the music itself.
    If they don't like it, well I guess your $6000 dollar hardware synth with superior analogue sound, and with your ' top tier clocking/conversion and preamps' analogue inputs doesn't make your music sound better than it actually is, does it?
