Yamaha TG500/SY85: operating through the keyhole
The Yamaha TG500 is the rack version of the SY85. Released in 1992, it came with a 64 voice polyphony that was previously unheard of at that time, and it was one of the first synths to feature a resonant digital filter. This video contains some sound examples and a quick walk through the sound editor. Table of contents:

Some bands / artists I've been following for a long time are (among others) Massive Attack, Pink Floyd, Pet Shop Boys, Archive, A-Ha, Yes, Porcupine Tree, John Mellencamp, Jean-Michel Jarre, Metallica, Peter Gabriel and Perturbator. So my music will kind of sound like those (without ever reaching the greatness of those artists, of course). :-)
