Elektron Musical Instruments

hi all
i own a MnM and an evolver.
i dont like to post (stupid useless mail)but i have to participate to 
this thread.
Mnm is a powerfull digital synthesizer with an analog touch and 
feeling,very simple and very fast to do powerfull original sound...my 
favorite machine!i always use them and i ve used it on my last 
record.the sound is punchy,digital but sweet like an electronic 
marmelad.but evolver is surely the best analog 21 century synthesizer
(i own 12 analog colector synth and i know what im talking 
about).bass are big,arp are crazy and u can add punchy sound when u 
use the 2 digital osc with th the 2 analog osc.but evelvover is only 
a monophonic synth!its the perfect MnM friend but alone,u cant do 
anything with it except ambient tracks:)
if u just need 1 machine,buy a MnM,if u have money to spend,buy the 
MnM and the evolver!
best
