For techno, in no particular order: Behringer Edge, Korg MS20 (mini), Soma Lyra-8, Moog Sub37, PWM Malevolent. But something like the Peak is an absolute workhorse.
Love the EDGE so much ! In my opinion it's the perfect hardware for any bedroom producer who's working in the box. It syncs via USB and needs only one input and uses very little space. And it can do techno so well, also surprisingly wide range in sounds. Ground shaking low end, gritty percussion, bleeps and all sorts of sequences, hi hats, you can even play it like a normal mono synth with your keyboard if you trigger it over USB with your daw. Really loving this machine. I don't even think I would swap it for a DFAM even if it was for free. The USB sync is just so comfortable. Also currently 160€ , that is an absolute steal
+1 for the Behringer Edge. I use it with my Syntakt and Modular gear and it's been a lot of fun for just turning on and getting straight into a little groove in a very short amount of time.
I would also add behringer neutron... patchbay is extremely usable, especially if you are into eurorack stuff... synth itself has a lot of possibilities and it costs like around 200 euros...
I love the Minitaur, but the DFAM (and every other Moog with Volca knobs) is a ridiculous waste of money. The Edge is 1/3 the price and still better build quality (and has MIDI). I really am not much of a Behringer fan, but the Edge and Model D and K2 are great and they're such a good value. And the RD-9 is pretty great, too. But for pads and polysynths in general, the Minilogue is overrated, and '90s romplers are criminally underrated. Maybe I just got bored of the Minilogue because I listened to too much Tycho for a few years. But if you've got the money for a Minilogue you'd have more fun spending it on a Zen Delay.
ProTip: there are no specific synths for techno...use what you like.

My Favs Dreadbox Typhon. Erica Synths LXR2. Digitakt. Syntakt and Novation Peak
Did not realized the DFAM was this useful for techno. Definitely getting that soon! Thanks for the recommendations TEC9. Now let’s get creative ;)
He didn’t get the edge
I would like to see something on the edge, I'm undecided to get it or not 😆😆
Can I do House or chiller electronic genres with these as well?
I have the digital synth Pigments by arturia
Of course, you can make nearly any genre with any capable synth. Pigments is fantastic .

Digitakt and bass station 2 for me. Fighting every urge not to buy an Edge though.

@@el_dani hi behringer boy. Top producers never use these toys.
@@HakanOzen-yo5nq not true...I've seen Wasps & Pro Ones used a fair amount.
