Thanks for the help everyone, really interesting stuff! Plenty to research
I'd love to buy a synth but as people have said on here, mainly for convenience I'd prefer pedals. Less gear to carry and I'm no Geddy for multitasking so it seems easier to me to do everything with one instrument, if possible. If it did come to buying a synth, can anyone recommend me any that aren't going to cost a fortune?

Just hook it up to a controller keyboard or sequencer and your good to go
The vst editor that comes with it is great, you can get under the hood and tweak til your hearts content!
