Mmmh... this is just my opinion, but I'm always surprised (and a bit annoyed)
when
a discussion about technology comes to forward vs backwards...

why should we have to choose ?
the creation of synths never hindered anyone from building pianos...
the creation of dumboxes never put drummers out of job, despite the big fear of

drummers union in the early 80's AFAIR... actually I know more ppl playing
real drums than ppl using a drumbox...
