JohnT wrote:You might be better off with the Kurzweil for what you describe as your style. The PC4 is multi timbrel, you can play up to 16 voices simultaneously. Very handy when writing "orchestrated" pieces with lots of parts. The Nord you would be limited to a maximum of 6 parts, and limited to 2 organs, 2 synths, and 2 piano sounds.
The Nord sounds are excellent, and the Kurzweil is awesome as well. (I own a Nord Electro and a Kurzweil K2500). When in my home studio I use the Kurzweil 99% of the time.
Thanks for the advice John T! After much research I am leaning towards the Kurz PC4 along with a Novation Summit for mire synth noodling etc
I also have Peak. You're gonna love the Summit. Very underated synth.
