> The Ignorant call them synthesizers, but in fact these are only 
sample players. I´m talking about stuff like Emu Proteus etc., where 
all the samples come out of a ROM. That´s why tey´re called ROMplers 
;-)

I have a theory that the popularity of the AS and A100 "effects" 
modules is due to the influence of sample players (I like "Romplers!) 
such as the Proteus. 

An entire generation has been taught that "synthesis" consists of 
adjusting effects parameters :(

Personally, I use outboard gear for things like spring reverb and 
phasing. I guess I'm a traditionalist.
