It's very well known by people that Arturia products are very poor when it comes to timbral character. There are two or three average ones, which just manange to scrape through as usable.
As for Jarre endorsing an Arturia product, that might have been an early blunder, which if I recall was some time ago, when softsynths were in their early ascendancy, obviously prior to 2005.
On the other hand the developer of Way Out Ware, told me that Jarre uses their ARP emulation extensively, but he has not put his endorsement on it.
