But be sure to unplug the machine first if you're going to
get carried away with your love.

Hardware is love.
Love the machine, it\ufffds all yours forever.
You cannot love a monitor displaying whatever it is told to. (like a bitch)

Music is made out of love. It\ufffds the feeling of the moment that counts.

could be because hardware often has crappier D to A converters and
use very good outbound filtering to clean up the noise. Sometimes
the less pristine sound sounds fatter . . .

 . .  mainly I am guessing. These days the converters on hardware
synths are much much better than before.

Partly true.

But remember, a hardware synth is dedicated to a single purpose, all it
ever has to do is on that synthesizer's spec sheet. For a software synth,
there are still usually corners cut to improve performance within the
context of a computer running many other tasks, not the least of which is
full software DAW functionality. The hardware synth can push it's hardware
to the limit, because it doesn't have to play nice with other processes.
