Interesting, Chris. Sounds like a bit of an art.
Riddle me this: When I listen to many digital recordings, the background is super black. No sound at all. All digits are set to 0 (zero). This is not natural. The best recordings that I know (in my opinion) are those with great hall ambiance. My guess is that the digital recording engineer (or some setting they trigger during the engineering process) sets the background to "super black" and eliminates the wonderful hall ambiance. It this something you know about or experience as well?
