Modwave has basically unlimited modulation matrix slots and a lot of modulation sources and destinations (including things like triggering an EG from some value like LFO crossing a threshold), 5 LFOs, 4 EGs plus "kaoss pad" which can work as a sort of LFO or EG.

Korg really knocked it out of the park with the Wavestate/Opsix/Modwave, they're all such deep and unique synth engines with a ton going for them.

I've a modwave as well - and yes, you are right to lust after one.

Especially after adding the Modwave and Opsix—both great tools for sound design—I’m thinking about reselling a few synths.

These days a used Modwave or Multipoly will give you a better UI and more capabilities in most areas than any of the above.

Bottom PolyBrute 12 … A miniFreak is always in sight also .

Parent context: Right. Also why go for the 12 when it doesn’t even have multi timbre or additional features over the 6 other than the voices? Reply: Have you ever used an Osmose or PB12? That keybed (and the gesture controls that make the keybed extra special) is a completely different experience, it's sublime. Everyone should try one.

I tried it out at Sweetwater and was blown away. My only turnoff though is I do a lot of live performing and it is just so big and on top of that a lot my band does is outdoors.
