Looking to purchase - newbie question time !

If you can afford it get a KB - I have a Polar and miss being able to play it fully without having to use transpose all the time.

Don't worry too much about FL - lots of people produce in there and get crazy results - if you make good songs you will overcome limitations anyway.

I bought a TI Polar and I have never looked back - really love it, learnt a shitload of synthesis that has helped with using VST synths, and getting professional warm tones in a track without really any external fx required.

I feel the same way about the 37 vs 61 keys but the polar does fit nicely next to a laptop on a desk. Whiteout keyboard version and black polar versions would be nice. If you can buy only one synth though, buy a TI. It does everything you would need and sounds amazing. 16 parts multy timbral it will literally do a whole track by itself without having to bounce it down to audio all the time(poliphany permitting).
