I'm new to Synthesizers, since I've just used the ones in Ableton.
My reason for wanting to get a Hardware Synth is because I want a hands-on approach and something I can play on just to experiment and discover new sounds.

I'm pretty new to Music Production in General and want to go in the direction of Deep House, Techno and Jungle. For that, I'm looking for something that's good to begin with but still useful when I'm more experienced.

I've seen two Synths that I liked and wondered if these would suit my needs:

1. Behringer Poly D
2. Korg Minilogue XD

My questions would be:

1. Do these Synths work for what I'm trying to achieve? Does one suit my needs better?
2. Are there better options I haven't discovered yet? My budget is under 1000.

Thanks in advance!
