> The use of mathematics to produce sounds resembling real instruments quickly became obsolete once we could just go out and sample the real thing. Sampling is a boring, brute-force approach to sound synthesis, but it’s a relatively straightforward one, now we have the computing power and memory.

I guess this is true, but the next thing to come along that made me leave the DX7 at home was an Ensoniq EPS-16+.
