I think the point is a simpler music we have on stage nowadays and the way the (simpler ?) musicians do that.


They need 5 monophonic synthesizers and a Beat Step.


Small and cheap synths do sell very fine at the moment.



However this is an issue because, as soon as a voice leaves the jacks you have a mono channel to treat and placing this into a 3D room is difficult.


I go with 64 Instruments the same time, using up to the full polyphony in each of the channels and have them still all for send and effect treatment present in the digital mixer attached. It is more like working with a DAW and its flexibility.
