Do you have a favourite synth artist? If so, who?:
Really too many to name but I like Richie Hawtin aka Plastikman, Deadmau5, and John Digweed among others.
Which is your favourite synth & why?:
Currently the Oberheim Matrix-1000 but I use a Stereoping controller, Elektron Analog Drive, Erica Synths AcidBox II Polivoks filter, and TC Electronics G-Major FX processor on it. It sounds so rich, lush, full, and the possibilities are endless with all the controls and fx.
What synth would you like to add to your synth collection?:
Korg Radias
DSI Rev2-16
DSI OB-6
DSI Prophet 12
DSI Tempest
Access Virus TI/TI2

If you could take one synth on a desert island, which one would you take & why?:
Deluge - because it's a sequencer, sampler, and synth so you can do everything on it. It's also battery powered and has a speaker and a mic built in.
WHERE CAN PEOPLE HEAR YOUR MUSIC? (Add links etc):
Dave Smith instruments synths are really good. Yes I think they would be a great addition to a synth collection. Good ole Access Virus synths 😀😀
