Elektron Musical Instruments

Hi all,

To cut a long story short im looking for my first synth, the slight 
diffrence is i have more programming experance (6502 assem, 
a little x86 and C to) then i do music makeing experance (alot 
more for that matter). Well i came across the SS and i thorgh it 
seems like a good "programers synth" (not sure if this is the 
correct term but it seems to fit) and also i realy like the SID's 
sound. My question is is it a good idea to get a SS bearing in 
mind what i just said ?
