I enjoy the enthusiasm of music software programmers who find a 300-year-old harpsichord, lovingly restore it, and then patiently sample it, taking weeks … even months. Following that, composers like me are able to play it through their master keyboard, which is connected to the sample library that is stored on their own computer.
