If you really love to program your own sounds, then the choice of ROM
is not critical; you'll presumably be doing most of your work with the
synthesis architecture.

[Having said that, even though I do a lot of sound/effects processing
(two Nord MicroModulars and two Korg OasysPCI's) I do have a
fully-populated XL-7, since most commissions require very fast
prototyping of ideas and for that you really need a large sample
library. For full-on electronica though, the sample selection is
really only a small part of the whole process.]
