Seriously ... In this case, I'd say it's a toss-up. The flute seems so close-miked that the reverb adds little, though it's OK. At that perceptual distance, you wouldn't hear much natural reverb anyway.

I must honestly say that my emotions reverberated better with your clip without the reverberation. For me, I felt a greater childlike intimacy in my listening without the reverb. as if though the less filling out allows a space for the listener's engagement.MTGuru wrote:The thing is ...
