i am pretty happy with the tools i have when it comes to pure musical instruments. i have a world class VST folder that i have spent a lot on. sometimes it's not clear.
i just bought 150 for Zynaptiq Intensity. to my ear it will enhance my recordings about 1%. but that % adds up in the marketplace of production and if this is your dream career that does matter.
the thing about the "centerpiece synth" like a beautiful nord Lead or Waldorf Quantum is that ultimately they're like really world class friends. you just want them around, in your house, hanging out with you. it's not like Intensity by Zynaptiq, or DynOne by Leapwing. Those are more like algorithms that enhance your ability to stand out with production.
For me, the Nord Lead or some of those synths or guitars out there are more like... just a really deep, heartfelt friend I want to have in my life.
