Dulcitone tuning fork piano?

[Allen Wright]

Well if it's using samples, it's a sampler and not a synthesizer,  
technically speaking - although some electric instruments are  
combinations of the two (part of the sound being a sample, but with  
added synthesizer abilities to use filters and oscillators etc. to  
modify the sound infinitely - like my trusty old Roland D-50's).

There's a certain merging of qualities occurring, as Kent Swafford's  
recent piano samples thread revealed. More and more gray areas, with  
increasingly convincing simulacrums. I found the diversity of  
perceptions and opinions about those recordings pretty interesting.
