another thing that makes a synth clasic is rareness which wont happend because so many VAs were produces.
thats true. another thing that makes a synth a classic is its signiture sound. the music im into...the signiture sounds of those styles are 90% of the time from a jp8080, a nord lead and/or an access virus. in that sense they are classics and they have pretty good resale values because they are still in such demand despite the fact that many musical styles built on these instruments (in particular trance) have been in decline for several years. i know nl1 and nl2 are still like, the defining instrument in psytrance. every psy producer has one. dont see many with nl3s though. but then it hasnt had the time that its predecessors have had to establish itself. give it a few more years. maybe in 10 years time, nl3 will be really cheap and some new bedroom producers will make a style of music that is heavily reliant on this synth and it becomes a phenomenal success and then EVERYONE will want an nl3, sky rocketing them to tb303 price and status. it really depends.
