The two most obvious factors that shape a synthesizer's sound

I love watching YouTube deep dives on specific synthesizers and technical explanations why they sound so good . But there are two very obvious factors that shape the sound of a synthesizer much more than anything else. So, let's talk about this! No table of contents needed this time.

Some bands / artists I've been following for a long time are (among others) Massive Attack, Pink Floyd, Pet Shop Boys, Archive, A-Ha, Yes, Porcupine Tree, John Mellencamp, Jean-Michel Jarre, Metallica, Peter Gabriel, The Midnight and Perturbator. So my music will kind of sound like those (without ever reaching the greatness of those artists, of course). :-)
