Well it was a while ago and things move on quickly days. Most audio work is done in software these days. Apart from audio streams and samples, even vintage synths and legacy processing units like compressors, EQ's, Reverbs, delays, choruses and filters are all digitally generated now. There are some who doggedly stick with analogue systems but even they have to record their final mix to hard disk cause no one is manufacturing tape machines or tape reels any more and old ones are falling into disrepair. The never ending march of progress, eh?
Though there is something to be said for the natural saturated sound of analogue, the allure of instant recall and editing from digital cannot be ignored. Asides, the emulated sound of analogue distortion is getting so close now it's hardly worth the trouble.
