909 VST vs 909 Samples

[chk071]

D16 are really OK guys, but, I never really found their plugins better than above mediocre... some of their stuff is nice though, I like their distortions, Phoscyon is alright, albeit a bit lacking in the resonance department compare to the real deal, and, LuSH-101 has the best vowel effect I ever heard on a soft synth. But, many mediocre plugins as well... still, I like what they're doing.

How is the Roland Cloud 909 compared to a real 909?

So if a product is considered finished by its developer then it's "abandonware" ?

According to KVR logic, yes.

I guess so.

I wonder how developers feel about about having to update all their products even if they don't need it for as long as they sell them just so they don't get labeled as "abandonware" ?

the Synthesis was ok at best. Should have seen more refinement in a 2.0 version. TR-09 sounds better.
