Join me on a flight to Sweetwater in Fort Wayne, Indiana — the world’s largest music instrument showroom — for my Top 20 Synthesizers of 2025 review and demo!
I explore the latest analog and digital synths under $2,000, from Moog, Korg, Roland, Sequential, Behringer, Oberheim, and more.
If you love synth sounds, gear talk, and hands-on demos, this Sweetwater trip is for you.
Discover which keyboards are worth your money — and which ones miss the mark.
🎹 What to Expect:
- A full tour of the Sweetwater showroom and synth section.
- Hands-on demos and honest reviews of the top 20 synths.
- In-depth analysis of features, sound quality, and value.
- My pick for the best affordable poly synth and more!
