More synth heavy than ELP? Really? 

Anyway, you might like the band Glass. 

Also, how about Tangerine Dream?

I can't guarantee that these bands don't use organ as I haven't listened to them in awhile, but they all seem to have varying levels of Emersonian influences in their keyboard work.

Ars Nova (Japanese band)
Cairo (1990s American band)
Pär Lindh Project
Eccentric Orbit
Triumvirat
Social Tension
Quill
Gerard
Castle Canyon
Mastermind
Lars Boutrup's Music for Keyboards
Jaime Rosas

And, welcome to the forum!

Hey everyone! My name is Butters and I am quite new here and have only been into prog for about a year. I was listening to Tarkus today and a thought crossed my head, "how phenomenal would it be if all of Keith's organ parts were played on a synthesizer?!". So my question for you guys is, are there any very keyboard heavy prog bands like ELP that use mostly synthesizers? I have been obsessed with synths since I was a little kid and would love to hear something like that, so any recommendations would be greatly appreciated! LOL
