I'm embarrassed to say that I couldn't decide. But I think the key
may be in the string pizzicato, or perhaps the tuning of the
woodwinds to pure equal temperament instead of tuning each chord.
I got it on the first try, because I thought it had the pure
temperament problem you mention above, and also the subtle but
relentless regularity of the tempo... Not a dead giveaway, however,
and I was pleased, but also a bit surprised, that I got it on the
first pass. Like some of you, all the years of working with MIDI
and sequencing and samples probably helped. Still, it's a pretty
darn good fake.
The article, by the way is mostly crap, and longer than it needs to
be to make any of the valid points. But "spot the fake" was well
worth a few minutes of R and R, when I should be meeting a deadline.
