er...yes
but what we're looking at here is the problem
" how to generate an artificial(digital) sound that has the richness
of an acoustic instrument"

if we could find a solution to that, then it might be possible to use
a similar idea to make a 'looper' that could vary it's playback to
give the impression of a musician playing an ostinato(repeated figure),
rather than an exact repeat.
..or even an ostinato with variations.

In both cases I imagine there  would need to be some
sort of human input used to control variations in the sound.

just random thoughts anyway
