I think the Moog’s I own were designed like a TVR.
Total Voltage control Reliability

Re: Unusual hardware synth recommendation...
I've had issues with both of my "current" Moog’s, and my confidence has been knocked, build doesn’t seem as good as it used to be.
Also, not a good company to deal with, no replies from support, I’ve given up.
My Grandmother has been back for repair and they found nothing wrong with it, as soon as I got it back it went wrong again, and still has an annoying fault, filter stops working, overloaded, no reverb. My Matriarch just freaks out now and again, then comes back again.
I just accept all this, like my car, comes with the territory

OK!
In that case I think I’m going to take this Neutron, it’s right near where I’m going at the weekend, at that price, even if it doesn’t work out for me, it may come in useful for a friend.
Re: Unusual hardware synth recommendation...
Yes way too many to choose from, I’d be trying to get away with balancing up features, that "you" need, and price, and trying to come out as economically as possible, it’s all very confusing, you just have to make a choice, it’s not set in stone, in these days of instant returns.

MiniBrute is a monster, I have one and love it for very specific things. The filter for the MiniBrute isn't my favourite, it's a very raw-sounding synth, but can get some great sounds if you like and have use for the base sound.
I only own a couple of Dreadbox products, and none of their synths. I know a lot of people love their stuff, but it does absolutely nothing for me.
It sounds to me like you need to do a lot more research before you jump in.

I feel similarly about the microbrute. It's a huge synth in a tiny package but you have to want to use a 'huge' synth. It doesn't really do small sounds, if you know what I mean?
Great build quality for what it is though, and the power adapter is a cable-wart instead of a wall-wart and that's always a thumbs up from me.
I have a pre-order in for the Nymphes from Dreadbox and will post opinions when that comes through, hopefully next month barring delays.
