Massively underrated monster synth
Everyone already knows the interface is awesome. What gets less talked about, is how useful it is in just about every context. I used it for the midbass and plucks in my tune Daybreak (Alpenglow Mix) a couple years ago, and it just sits so nicely in the mix. Not too bright, not too dull, nice and punchy, and doesn't overpower everything else. The keybed is also really nice, and just invites you to sit down and play on it, and it works super nicely as a controller for desktop synths, too. It benefits the most from quality external reverb and delay (but what besides the Virus TI and the Supernova and Summit doesn't?), so if you get an NL3, also pair it up with good external FX to really get a feel for how this thing sounds. I'm keeping mine forever
