Corrupted Wish

Well, I'd be willing to bet it sounds great, but it ain't a real B-3.

Digital recreations of old analogue electro-mechanical/electronic musical instruments are truly impressive, but they are *not* the real deal. Sampling and modeling do not a B-3 or a Moog make.

Ask anyone who plays them. Most working musicians will shrug and say something like, "Hey, it sounds close enough, and it is a lot easier to road; more reliable." But ask someone who is into the devices themselves and they'll tell you...it ain't the same.

SM, feel free to jump in anytime.
