Since you are talking Analog, how about a AN1x... it's got 61 keys... maybe that's not enough though. They should have put the soft-synth version of the PLG-150 AN in the Genos instead of the 8 Operator FM synth. Analog is the way to go!

Listen to both the AN1x and PLG-150 AN / AN200 sounds programmed by JayB. They are same synth engine.
BTW... the video link that Tommy posted also features the Waldorf Quantum keyboard. that may be your best bet.

i could add a 76 key version of Motif ES? With AN board..
But i am more leaning to the nord stage 3 compact now
Its got the 3 weak spots of the Genos on board..
- physical engines for B3, Vox, Farfisa and church organs
- great diversity of acoustic piano’s
- a real VA synth
But then, i could get the same from any software solution i choose..
The new Novation mk3 makes a perfect solution for controlling a software setup.. witouth having to continously watch the screen..
Before making a move, i first need to decide if i want to move away from an 88 key lower to an 76 key upper... my piano training has hit a ceiling... and i get better results playing piano’s on the genos then on my modx8 keybed...
And moving the Genos from the upper position in the setup to the lower position just makes reaching things on my mainkeyboard so much easier then now...
Now, decisions like this take me in general like 6 months or more to make...so in ni hurry, maybe even waiting for Winter namm what new options arise there..
In the mean time i will keep enjoying the genos, which now is a single keyboard/ipad setup.. while the modx is in another room connected to teh macbook
I find myself only playing the genos/ipad... which makes a point about my Genos
