I`m not really concerned with emulating analog any more.
I learned all I know about in music working in a 100% analog professional studio as an apprentice for years, and those were great days.
these days I`m far more concerned with making professional sounding productions with sounds that entertain and interest me.
Why emulate a 909? or a whatever, just make stuff that sounds good, this is techno after all and the whole process of even tryingto emulate a sound seems wrong to me.

The problem I see with digital stuff these days, is that a lot of people using it have never heard analog stuff, or used any, so they don`t know how to capture that analog sound, as their ears have simply never experienced it.
It`s easy to do if you know how, the software is that good.
Same with compression and EQ.

I hate when people chase kit like a holy grail, as if x piece of kit will suddenly make them sound pro or whatever.
A lot of time, and experience, and experimentation will wield more results than gadgetry.
