The Buchla is great fun - don't have the original to test it against of course but it's amazing

Awesome, I called this in another thread a few weeks back. I knew we were due for a release soon.

Ohhhhh. DX7 Look reaaaaally nice...Might consider buying that one alone if not the whole collection.

The Piano is hugely improved - it's actually very playable now (the first version didn't really cut it for me)

Everytime I say, "I don't need to buy these" they tempt me even more.

Grabbing Analog Lab 3 to get a taste for the new sounds. Was expecting the DX but the Bucha Easel is a surprise. I passed on Collection 5 because I wanted more bang for my buck. This might be it.

Same. I swear the last 3 synths i bought were the "Last synths i'll buy"

GAS at its finest

What sort of upgrade prices are people seeing? I own Prophet (latest version) and Analog Lab 2 and my upgrade price is $249.

EDIT: It looks like I was updated to the latest version of Analog Lab for free. That's cool.

The DX looks good. I'm not convinced at "easier to program" because I think that what makes FM hard is the understanding, but, we'll see. In any case, it seems that they've gone to a per/op filter, unless I'm misunderstanding. Which is, of course, awesome!

However, just having a scalable U/I on a modern FM synth would be useful. I too skipped the V5 update, but I will grab this one on a good sale, i.e., not the current intro price.
