so your premise that digital can reprodice that sound after analogue has "added" whatever it adds, is, in my strongly held view, wrong.
Just to clarify what I mean ... many of us can put on a CD, and point out the highly desirable "analog" sound that we want. Whatever desirable things that analog gear imparts, it shines through the 16 bit 44.1kHz of a consumer CD player. It even shines through an MP3. I have no doubt it sounds better straight off the desk, before the convertors, but that isn't reality for most people.

So while you can't turn a digital painting into a Rembrant - you can turn a digital painting into a scanned Rembrant.
