If "percussive maintenence" helps, especially with older gear, it's 
time to reflow solder joints. At least reflow those of the components 
that get hot during normal operation. Often it works wonders.

Yes, it's amazing how the waveform of a flute can change with 
embouchure, isn't it? I play flute myself (sometimes in front of a 
scope....).
I think the thing in synth world that comes closest is a wave shaper.
