    I always find this sort of response funny. It's basically, "The new stuff sounds different than the old stuff!".

    It's just another sound to get used to. Plus, stuff done in Ableton will sound as good as just about anything if done right. It just opens the door for people who could never afford all the different gear and software. I mean, you could use human-played instrument samples for everything and it would sound more organic than a real 909, no? People who produce the entire track using software intruments are the ones you're on about. I mean shiiit, producers of "real" music constantly slag electronic music using your same argument.

    Plus, software production is ever evolving, and I'm confident that it will get to the point where differences vs. will be strictly imagined. It'lll be like the whole WAV vs. 320 rate MP3 argument that has never reached any real conclusion. The oldschoolers will argue that they can hear the difference, while almost no one really can.
