That totally depends on the host platform the PLG-150AN would be in, 
because it transfers its signals digitally to the host.

The AN1x sounds pretty clean to my ears (via an 01V mixer and AKG K240M 
headphones), so I think you'll be hard pressed to get a significant 
improvement in sound quality by going all digital, unless you have 
really crap analogue equipment.

Anyway, a proper analogue modeler should hiss. :)
