However, with almost every synth I ever owned (s/w and h/w) at some point I've made a whole track with just the one synth - and I've never liked any of them. They just sound too samey. I even did it with various old school h/w samplers. I dunno why I do it TBH, because the result is always the same

That is why, in practice, the answer is no...

Almost everything ( with no distinction between control rate and audio s.r.rate for h.q.modulation, if you wish to do so )
- reaktor
-tranzistow

Everything
-Supercollider ( still learning ,but verry rewarding )
- max-msp

Not only one synth, but multiple one wave (Sin) can do it all

There are a few synths that cover a lot of ground,but why would you rely on one sound source anyway ?

There's a few good reasons why an orchestra is made up of different instruments that produce different sounds and timbres...

When you combine them in various ways,you have arranging 101...

In the brave new world of synthesis,Zebra 2,SynthMaster 2 and Vital,along with a few others,are capable of creating vast amounts of textures and colours...

We are so spoilt for choices these days

one synth can do it all ...
unfortunately , only one instance of the .dll exists ...
you want ' the precious ' vst ...

Where is it? They stole it from us. My precious. Curse them, we hates them! It’s ours, it is, and we wants it!”

Well
I still haven't found one that will clean my oven & remove dishwasher spots

Naw. Even if it does every possible thing on a specs sheet it can't create every single type of tone. I want lots of different tones at my disposal.

The one that can do all is called C++. The UI is unbearable, that is why a lot of people create user interfaces for it with the result that those cannot do all, but in exchange they are usable and some even inspiring…

What does the OP want to do exactly ?

I guess as its KVR it can only mean EDM. Everything here seems to default to that genre. That being the case, and it is EDM, then why do you need more than one synth for it ?

One Synth to rule them all. Since it was known that the dark lord would have too much power, the one synth was split into several synthesis methods and hidden in multiple instruments, because no mortal can handle the power of a single synth.

I bet Halion can do all, but I can‘t handle that technocratic monster.
We need heroes to liberate us, and some are around, but usually too expensive to hire…

Icarus2 is the closest to a do-it-all synth that I can think of. Its feature set is ridiculous.

Sounds like something Professor Lupin would say.

can one synth really do it all ?
