I'll give them a go but my experience of many of the plug ins available is that they often miss small but important details of the original. In the case of the MiniMoog it is often the odd behaviour of the envelopes that go unnoticed they are ADSD (three controls Attack Decay Sustain, with Decay being used for initial Decay and Release). The envelopes also do not reset to zero so with the right settings a pseudo touch sensitivity can be obtained. One expensive plug in I tried didn't even come close!
I sometimes wonder if some (not all) plug in producers have ever used the instruments they are trying to emulate...
