Elektron Musical Instruments

I'm interested in your max sid. I'm using max/msp in all my music these 
days. Any plans for a standalone supersid instrument?

I tried to emulate the sid filter in suppercolider last year but it sounded 
more like an ms-20. I suppose if the filter is imposible to emulate 
acurately you could always use your sidstation as a midi controlled filter.
