That's right, when you blend things then you normally get the best result.
That's why debates like the analog vs. digital one is pretty pointless,
because you can take the good things from analog synthesizers and integrate
with the possiblities that digital equipment has brought us. I think
Autechres latest album is a good example of this, because it sounds
certainly more digital than their previous works do, but I guess there's a
lot analog shit going on there as well...
