I think the simple synth from scratch is better.

You can also write support for a complex synth at first
as it would be a simple synth by leaving out more complex
parameters. If it works, you can add them later.

Usually it is not important for the librarian support
whether the synth is complex or not.
That will basically affect the editor support.

Joachim Backhaus
