I suspect that if I needed a flute sound that I would use a real flute as
flute is the instrument I am best at.  Of course the extended range of my
wind controller (about 7 octaves) might be tempting on a piece that could
use that.  For me synth sounding sounds are okay for the wind controller. I
have a some acoustic wind instruments (flutes of various pitches, soprano sax)
to to bring on a gig when I want those sounds.
