Are you sure about that? For the 3389 I know only one, from Cherry.Curtis filters have already been taken on by multiple developers, and there's more than one sampler out there emulating legacy sample reconstruction hardware (Arturia's, TAL's, Amigo to name a few). Heck SurgeXT has a wavetable mode doing something very similar, as well as a number of modelled filters.8 bit wavetables through the CEM 3389 filter chip is very special and the reason the Rev A is more popular than the Rev B.
Advertised with "CEM3389 FILTER is a low-pass filter with 24dB/octave slope module based on CEM filter chip CEM3389 very similar to the classic Oberheim filter sound."
And that's the biggest bullshit in the world. None of the classic Oberheims had a filter like the 3389. They had an early CEM chip that sounds pretty different.
A sampler like TAL is not using wavetables, it won't give the same results.
Not debating the value of the synths you mention, but they don't come near what a Microwave sounds like. And that's coming from someone who does not even like it.
