I don?t like the word dated in making electronical music. There are a lot of very (very,very)old gear people still use. If a synth sounds great it will do that eventhou ten years has past. It?s just how you use it. A good synth is a good synth no matter if it?s made 1996 or 1986. It?s about what gear you need to make the kind of music you like to make. Many old gear is much better than new if you make certain type of music like something retro-sounding.
(The Virus will be a bad-ass synth for the next 20years, so does everything else that is great now)
