cutting through the mix/fat basses/crunch and fuzz...do we have a winner?

[lawst]

which synth (analog or VA) would you pick if you could only have one, if you were to base your decision on the following:

 

1. how well it cuts through the mix (rock in particular)

2. fat bass sounds

3. crunchy/fuzzy distorted sounds

 

Edit:

Please give your reasons for the synth you choose

[robotsquid]

Evolver or Nord Lead. Voyager would be good too.

 

edit: Reasons are because they do what you want quite well, cut through the mix, have nice basses and can sound quite sharp.

 

The Evolver has distortion and bit reduction built in as part of it's architecture, as well has having analogue oscs and filters for fat sounds.

The Nord Lead would be my first choice.
