Yeah, but isn't that what a Chip Tune is supposed to sound like, a synthesizer
It's much like the older ISA days for PC's when you purchased just a SB16 or similar sound card you got synth and not samples.
You had to upgrade to a sample supported card like the SB32 or above or my favorite card at that time was the Ensoniq Soundscape.
If you had to compare a synth tune vs. a sampled tune, there really is no comparison, unless of course you listen to them over the cheap ass puny speakers that many people still use today
