Absolutely great, gritty sounds that fit right into some cheesy italian horror flick from the 80s

Absolutely superb sample quality and variety, considering it's age, it's literally baffling how good most of the sounds still are in this, and can be used for modern productions, not just for things that emulate that 'old school sound'.
At least on par, but probably better than the SC-55, from the same era. Has some really wonderful patches that can surprise you. You can also have up to 32 midi channels (!) though not much of a use for that, since you 'only' have 32 voice polyphony.
Never heard about this until I randomly saw it, such a hidden little gem. Casio isn't really known for their 'pro' equipment, but the select few things that they did release for serious usage, are extraordinary in my opinion. This thing's built like a tank, with a full metal casing, and runs on either 9V power or batteries. There's no real features to speak of, but being able to split 2 inputs into 8 outputs, with each output having a dedicated switch for input selection is straightforward and a simple solution to hooking up multiple instruments to your DAW / controller.

A really old thing, with sounds from the 90's. You get a ton of stuff, if you don't want full on realism, and a library that barely eats up any memory, this is a good one to have as a start. It's still very usable if you're scoring games (has been partially used for the first Kingdom Hearts and Harry Potter games to say the least). It has a specific feel to it, so it might not be for everyone.
Lots of good sounds and articulations, very dry, so you'll have to add at least some reverb and compression to it (there's built in ones). Tiny footprint, so it even runs on a toaster.
Literally my go-to VST. Ever since I bought it, it's been the first thing to load into my DAW whenever I start jotting down ideas. Lots of great sounds to choose from, absolutely quick and easy editing, and barely any memory usage.

Most comfortable headphones I've ever used, doesn't break the bank if you can't stand the fake leather ones and are opting for textile.

While I do like what you can do with it, it's too limited for any serious usage. For it's price, you can get a proper FX rack on the used market that's much better. Wouldn't really recommend it.
A neat toy keyboard that actually has more features than anything nowadays that's made for the same market. Proper midi support with inputs and outputs and rather easy editing. Just one problem: no internal memory. If you switch off the unit, you lose your custom patches, so you either save everything via sysex or just keep a notebook around.
