And between the players: the way to get an oboe player to stop 
playing is to take away his music, while the way to get a guitarist 
to stop playing is to put music in front of him...

Depending on what we're working on, some of us "do orchestral based 
music" at least as much as rhythm section music, or we use both 
together! Oboe is a ubiquitous orchestral instrument, and I happen to 
need it fairly often (and I use either VL1 or an old Prophet 2000 
sample from 1987 or so!).
