Hello Rich,

It seems like, no matter how closely you try to mimic the waveform of a
real instrument,...


I have a feeling that this is exactly the problem. Engineers try to
mimic the output waveform instead of looking how the real instrument is
built. If they did that, they'd try to emulate all the individual parts
and pieces.

Yabbut, how many gyrators and phase shifters and stuff does it take to
model, for example, a bowed string? ;-)

Thanks!
Rich

Whatever it is, if it has to come out of speakers it isn't going to
sound quite right.
