Which direction?
Hi guys! Recently bought a K-Station (my first hardware)! Having found the sound of hardware amazing I am looking towards my next purchase! I am coming in to some money very soon so I need a little help to decide what to get next!
I have roughly £600 pound to spend! My list of hardware on the agenda is thus:
Novation Super Nova
Novation KS5
Roland JP8080
Nord Lead 2
Access Virus C
What do I get next from the above list? I produce trance so I am kinda lent towards either the Nord Lead or the Virus C! Please help me decide!
Thanks in advance!

All of them!
I think I would buy myself the Virus C, 'cause I have a JP8000. One of those is definitly a good choice.

I think you'll get the most out of virus c, out of the list.
I have jp8080, nord lead 3, and virus c... and the virus seems like it can do what the others can... but it's only as good as the user.. There is a lot of free sounds online for it as well.. that's good if you don't know how to program your own presets yet, or if you want to tweak existing stuff.. But how much money you wanna spend? There is virus ti,comming out shortly.. I would personaly wait for that..

I'd go with the virus as well. It takes quite a bit of time to get to know, but once you know how to get the sounds out of it that you need you'll get some amazing and versatile sounds out of it.
