Just curious, is it true that when a musician is playing in an orchestra, whether it's a violin or oboe or whatever, he actually can't hear his own instrument?

Sometimes that is true....its a matter of balance. I'm a violinist, so there are many playing the same notes as I; if I don't become incorporated in the whole, I have to find another job. It goes as far as sting selection for my instrument. Some strings (Evah Pirazzi) are designed with power in mind, and are good for solo work. Some are designed to meld into the whole (Dominant). I have two bows in my case...one with more projection, and one for orchestra work. Even the rosin I select for a performance makes a difference. ....its all balance and the quest of a certain sound one is after.
So, as an audiophile, I assume you've cryogenically treated your violin? :)
