Great budget flanger for extreme sounds
This is the eqd Pyramids predecessor and it is very similar. It lacks a few features but has some extra features as well, like chorus. True stereo, it can do all the weird flanger sounds you can (and can't) think of. Amazing on synths!

Super Flexible
Interesting filter (does not lose volume when resonance is increased) and split mode. Not as bright as the classic Prophets but VERY close sonically to the Prophet 6. Great LFOs and modulation matrix with tons of destinantions and a super useful vintage knob and (polyphonic) glide knob. Pretty simple but useful Arp and Sequencer. If you can find a used one for around 1000, get it. Perfect for live use and very useful FX section (most of it), although I prefer its raw sound with external FX. Sounds great in both Mono and Stereo.

Great portable synth
This is the best budget va I have and the sound is very rich for its size and money. I own a Juno 106 a Take 5 a Wave 2 and a Prophet 08, the sh01a is the most intuitive of all of them if you quickly want to dial in a sound, especially if you want to create something like a Jupiter 4 string/pad patch. The advanced LFO and 4 note polyphony is super useful and unlocks great sound design possibilities (FM). The 100 step sequencer can be played together with the Arp. Despite its small size it is very fun to play live. Add a warm transparent overdrive and a stereo modulated delay for extra vibes.
