Hello synthlovers!
i need a small synth that can produce ambient/dreamy sounds.
Preferably 49 keys max and my budget is 500€.
What would you recommend?

Thnx:)

Waldorf Blofeld
Novation Ultranova

If you go for 2nd hand, you have a reasonable chance of getting a Blofeld desktop and an Ultranova for your budget.

Yeah they're both good options. Or you could get any old synth and an eventide space pedal, it's killer for soundscapes.

Have a look at a Kawai K 5000 (W/S/R) - I know its outside your key range (5 oct), but the keybed is excellent, and the sounds can be super trippy. Based on used prices here in Oz, you should be able to find one within your budget in Europe.

First edition Nord Modular will get you all that and more....you'll need to run the software on an old mac (OS9) or on Windows....pref XP...I was running on OS10.9 via VMware...

Literally any synth.

To be fair some are better - more mod options, lfo options, ramp etc can all help with evolving sounds that are great for ambient.....
