The missing "...consequently, you all noobies know-it-nothing listen to me as the truth is in my mouth" part, which is the centerpoint of the post reflects a severe self-esteem disease. Beware of it.
Back to the technical arena, I see a natural reaction against what might be 'the-new-big-thing' everywhere: even when its development has only given babysteps, it is immediately compared with 'the other, the one we already have' technology, which has years of development.
Of course, it's judged rudely. The description in the post header serves pretty well to express that "if I say so, it must be that way".
Old timers like me might recall when the first CD players appeared, with those poorly-developed, cheap DAC filters. The fever about those gizmos sounding 'digital' and 'distorted', and in no way comparable with a good vinyl or tape. When the CD technology improved, it quickly become the quality 'de-facto' standard (even when today there's still guys who prefer to listen concertos on vinyl
).The bad thing is that many technologies and products have disappeared or went bankrupt due this. It seems that the popular belief feedback is something impossible to handle from a commercial point of view.
The good thing is that musicians are smart. And sometimes they pick one of those technologies/products supposed to be a 'perfect emulation of', and figure a way to create a new sound out of them, which will be 20-years-later cliche. Like some drum machines, bass machines or synthesizers.
In any case, im(very)ho Synful is like two thousand lawyers chained two hundred meters below sea level: a great start
