There may be little love lost for the old methods, but there is much love lost for many of the results.
- Tokkemon 4y agoPerhaps, but in the right hands, computer notation programs can make equally good engraving results. The only thing it can't really do well is the "authentic" or "organic" feel of a hand-carved plate, where natural human error is introduced. But on the best plate engraving, such an effect is so subtle to be practically impossible to notice.
