May I ask this question?
In recent years, maybe the last 5 years, what are the most popular synthesizers performed by mainstream artists? I'm talking about a stage synthesizer here, not a sample library.
My sincere thanks,
What are the most popular synthesizers at the moment?

For stage use? Based on the shows and live clips I've seen, I'd say the following synths are among the most popular over the past 5 years:
- Access Virus TI/TI2
- Nord Leads (mostly 2X and 3)
- Moog Explorer
- Dave Smith Prophet 08
- maybe the Alesis Andromeda A6???
Then, of course, there are the workstations/ROMplers/synths from Roland, Yamaha, Korg, and Kurzweil that are ubiquitous for gigging musicians.
