I think those are perfectly valid reasons for going with emulation.

And I certainly don't mean to sound dismissive about the possibilities that creates! It's a huge factor and I would see it being akin to how the rise of "pro-sumer" home recording equipment played a huge role in underground punk music.

Honest question: if you're a musician, what is the appeal of digital modeling? Is it purely affordability/accessibility, or are you drawn to it because it would create different sonic possibilities that you couldn't get from the original?

Thanks for calling that out. I was beginning to get sucked into it.

I realize this may get lost in the comments and also that I am partially just venting from a bad week at work with a particularly stressful dev, but...

Is anyone else just sick of developers with hyper-condescending tones like this?
