Its even true we need old version Smallstone phaser ? sometimes heared something like this i think.

the difference is very small.
it's a bit of an audiophile-like-nonsense-debate.

I read this discussion and have not much to add to this, except that I remembered what someone who purported to be a musical critic wrote in his review of the concert JM gave in my city. He said that if he had been in Jarre's shoes he probably could have done the same with less instruments on the stage.
Still, is the Eminent string sound absolutely pure? Nothing added through an FX processor in post processing (sound compression FX etc.)? This sound comes out via a mixer console and through loudspeakers.

That's a common one. I bet he would say something like "tsk, I could do all that with just a laptop and a MIDI-keyboard"

Truth is Jarre uses concerts so much not so usefull stuff but this is not problem to me anyway. And made so many different versions of tunes using different synths i think.

But it would sound like shite.
