Gear Advice for a Piano Player

Hello!

I am a Piano Player who integrades Synthesizer in his Songs (live and Studio). Kind of like Nils Frahm (of course not so talented tho) but a little bit more psychedelic, dark ambient Pink Floydish like.

I will use the Synth mostly for lush ambient pads, in Sequencing/Arp mode or for Lead Sounds.

I am looking for an additional Synth which integrates well with my current Setup. Honestly I am really open minded (Mono or Poly / Digital or analog) It's not that I necessarily need/look for something special, more a synth that integrates well and stimulates my creativity - just a new toy. :-)

I have already done some research.

The Dreadbox Semi-Modular Synths look very interesting to me and could integrate well with my other semi modular gear.

Or also the Arturia Microfreak, because I don't own a digital synth yet and the keyboard allows a creative way of playing.

Budget is about 800€ (used is okay for me)

My current setup:

Moog Grandmother, Moog Mother 32, Moog DFAM, Prophet 6, Yamaha Reface CP, Novation 49 SL MkIII (To control the different Synths), Akai MPC Live 2, Upright Piano

Effects: Strymon Big Sky, Strymon El Cap, Eventide Space, Empress Reverb, Microcosm, Boss CE-3

I would really appreciate your help. Thank you and have a nice day!
