Well, not quite. Sheet music is quite playable after many centuries.
And no special machines are needed :)
Ok, you're right. OTOH sheet music has two disadvantages:
1. It's not perfect, the notation is unable to archive the ms I used to
push my guitar's whammy bar and the notation doesn't archive the
detuning after doing this with my pre-Floyd-Rose-and-co-whammy-bar.
2. It does neither take care about sensitive phrasing, nor about the
sound of the used instruments.
Sheet music isn't a recording! You need musicians, you can't share just
a magnetic tape or some computer files.
