Richness is subjective as far as I understand - you could do an FFT-style frequency analysis, and there are ways to "enhance" sounds and timbres like the mastering tools they use in studios - don't they usually call these "sonic maximizers" or something? Or exciters?
I would humbly suggest to do what sounds good to you! This also sounds like it could potentially go toward the "analog vs digital" argument, which I don't really buy into - but maybe that's a whole other quagmire. Also, what is "natural"?
"By the late twentieth century, our time, a mythic time, we are all chimeras, theorized and fabricated hybrids of machine and organism; in short, we are cyborgs. Ths cyborg is our ontology; it gives us our politics." Donna Haraway, "A Cyborg Manifesto"
cheers! km

ive heard a lot of times that natural sounds has more spectral richness that digital generated sounds... is it possible to measure the spectral richness of a sound?
thanks
