Elektron Musical Instruments

I think Elektron's inventions are changing the progression of a lot 
of new electronic music because of their unique designs.  My opinion 
is they should keep innovating without limiting themselves to 
outdated audio technologies as a gimmick.

The Sid Station is obviously a classic machine, but I think anybody 
who owns an MD or a Mono knows that the ultra-intuitive interface 
design and audiophile sound quality of these two instruments is the 
way forward.

I just want to see the imagination of these guys totally unhindered 
without working around limitations inherent in old chips.  It also 
makes for a much wider range of possible sounds.  The distinct 
character of old chips like the Sid is what makes them so cool, but 
also less versatile.  Hence the "bit-pop" electroclash associations.

Anyways, that's my two cents!
