Hi, Jan,
it's published on my web pages at
www.soundclick.com/forrotronics
where it's possible to hear my music as well.
I like all of them :-), but most favorite and most used in my studio are:
Yamaha: 2x VL1, 2x VL1m, SY99, 2x EX5, FS1r, MU128 V2, PSR9000 Pro, Clavinova P500, DX7, DX7 II D, TX802, TX81z, TX816, TX416, TG77, TG500, RM50, TG33
Korg: Wavestation, Wavestation AD, 2x Prophecy, MS2000, PA80, CX3 V2, EX800, ER1, KaosPad 1
Roland: V-piano, Jupiter 6, JD800, 2x JD990, MKS70
Kawai: K5000W, K3
Novation: Supernova
Oberheim: Matrix 6r
Casio: CZ3000
EMU: Ultraproteus, E4X
Technics: WSA1r
Akai: S3000XL
Less used are:
Yamaha: 2x TX16W, CS15D, 2x CS40m, CS80, SY1, WT11, rhythmer RX5, organ YC45D, SK20 and B30R, electro-acoustic piano CP80
Korg: Sigma, X911
Roland: SH2000, TR808
Elka: Synthex
PPG: Wave 2.2
Hammond: tonewheel organ CV (1945), M3 (1960), LSI organ Commodore (1985)
ARP: Pro DGX
Moog: Multimoog
Kurzweil: K250
Casio: MT65
MFB: 512
Main reason is I haven't so much space in my studio and these instruments are in different rooms. When I need them for recording, I can bring them (with the exception of heavy Hammond and Yamaha organ, huge CS80 synth, and piano CP80 which I have upstairs in our house).
I like also other instruments - my Yamaha guitars SG500B, FGXB1, two custom six strings K+K bass guitars (fretted and fretless), fretted one with MIDI pickup and Yamaha G50 converter, also MIDI guitars Casio DG7 and Yamaha G10m, MIDI saxophone WX5 and my Japanese koto, shakuhachi and shamisen.
I had much more instruments in my Museum of EA instruments, but sold them before my moving to Japan. Some of them were bought by Vienna Technical Museum and are on exhibition there. I had some very rare old instruments in my collection. So my actual equipment is just rest of it, only few pieces were bought in Japan.

P.S.: Your name looks like Czech, am I right? :-)

Subject: Re: [CZ-VZ-Files] Re: New patches are finally here.I'm happy with any synthesizer, as I'm collector to some degree, if
only I could keep all I have bought in the past, there were
hundreds... but sometimes unfortunately had to sell something to get
money and space for some other machines. But I regretted many times I
had to do this... CZ/VZ series has some features the other machines
hasn't and can produce interesting and quite usable sounds.
I think any synth - be it old or new - can serve well if we know how
to use its best and the most typical features. It has no sense to
expect good piano sound from DX7, or aggressive sound from Korg
Wavestation or Kawai K5000, or pipe organ from Korg MS2000... What I
like most of all is to combine different types of sound synthesis in
my numerous hardware synths. Each of them has some strong and weak
points, but together they create a huge supersynth with lot of
possibilities. Recently i have about 70 instruments in my studio...
