Synth pr0n - The Arturia MatrixBrute

For instance, I showed this video of Mr. Rudeness (love his name like that, he should change it) to my mom and she pointed out all the physical ailments his hands and wrists would suffer, if he wasn't already experiencing them.

Keith Emerson is already suffering badly with arthritis; like most "rock" keyboardists he played too much with his arms, not his fingers.

I almost added Jordan Rudess to my short list, but I've read enough interviews with him, his primary "tone-sculpting" technique is stacking Presets on top of each other, he didn't seem to toy too much with envelopes/filters, etc. His "synth playing" technique, though, is top-notch (given his poor hand positioning).
 
^ Did you see in the video above that I posted, with The Keith Emerson Band. His right hand was basically just using the thumb, pointer and middle finger, looks like that hand is in pretty rough shape!
