A certain WOW factor I agree, but is it just nothing more than a nice gimmick?

I do wonder though that providing I, or someone else, created a decent sound font of a brass band cornet that actually sounds like a cornet, couple that to this imitone stuff, then all I need do is whistle or hum into the microphone at the next band rehearsal and leave the cornet at home, just need to learn how to whistle, or hum in tune. wink
