Hardware Help

Hi ive looking into buying some hardware synths to add to my studio. At the moment i only have/use Fruity Loops 6, Midi keyboard and a Korg PadKontrol. I have been looking at a few and have found two that look ok and are quite cheap

Novation X-Station

and

Korg Microkorg
http://www.gear4music.com/Keyboards--Modules/Korg/Korg_microKORG_Synthesizer.html

which do you guys think is better, and what else would you recomend for under £500

Thanks

It depends how much you wanna spend...

But that is a fair amount of money for some equipment, I would rather spend on a good computer and get virtual instruments, and a midi controller. But of course I need to get myself a job...

Its the same with all sorts of equipment. If you can afford the best, get it, but if you cant, dont get it, and get something to improvise. And dont fall for looks either, because i chose this laptop coz it looked better than the other 1, but now i know the other 1 wouldve worked 1000000 times better and not been sent into repair 5 times!!!
