degrees of realism

Well, I would not want to create mountains of extra work, but I would
just ask whether it is possible to remove or reduce the electronic
vibrato in MIDI?

Yes it is. If the vibrato is a function of a synth patch, the patch
can be reprogrammed. If the vibrato is part of a sample, then one
might need to try a different sample. And one can always make vibrato
on a note controlable by a midi control message, thereby allowing one
to not only turn it on and off, but increase or reduce it by gradual
degrees, returning it to it's function as an expressive element.

Didn't mean to use your original posting to leap into the realm of
ultra-drudgery, but the topic of appropriate realism in orchestral
mock-ups is one that gets revisited occasionally, especially as our
tools improve - though microtonality is still lagging behind 12tet
electronic compositing...
