I own an Oberheim Matrix-1000. It was not expensive. Assuming a mixing console or analog inputs of an audio interface shouldn't cause noise, it is as free from noise, as a virtual synth. The sound of CEM Curtis chips is much more impressive than any emulation. A real advantage of virtual instruments IMO is another domain. Last Black Friday I purchased Miroslav Philharmonik. The value-for-money ratio is much better, than recording a real orchestra. It doesn't replace a real orchestra, but for me a virtual orchestra is the only orchestra I could get.
