Although the learning curve for JSynthLib development is pretty steep, I
suspect Atte is right to some degree.  It is fairly easy to duplicate most
hardware synths with the various emulations available under Linux.  Also one
can set up a patch on the  hardware synth (via tedius button pushing and menu
selections and perhaps even patch cords) and then sample it for routine use in
something like FluidSynth.

Still it would be nice to be able to program legacy synths with a modern
interface!
