I’m treating myself to my first synth in nearly 20 years. I’ve decided to beer away from vintage as the synths available right now are just stellar. I’m looking to create dark, moody sonic landscapes that I can fuse with some jazzy blues and take me out of my comfort zone.
Contenders are -
Moog Subsequent 37
Matrix Brute
Prologue 16
Also very tempted by the Deckards Dream although I don’t own a keyboard remote at present.
The Brute owns the top spot but I change my mind several times a day. I loath menu diving and prefer ‘hands on’ real-time tweaking.
Any advice folks?

Surprised you’ve not got a Rev2 on your list also. That would be my choice over all the above.
If you can live with a mono synth then the Matrixbrute is the most flexible and best sounding.
If you need polyphony then the Rev 2.

Nothing overlaps with anything else.

If you need a keyboard, rev 2 hands down.

Expensive, but sounds beautiful.
