You see, in my view, what those smaller labels and big labels do in term up-closed microphones and artificial reverberation (even though it NEVER done properly) is something that event delivers a small tactical advantage in trim of sale to ignorant public but it at the same time has a huge strategic disadvantage in trim of absolute quality of Sound and preservation of artistic values of performing events.



A very practical and un-audiosophic question:

From my experience most of the big labels (but I don´t have so much experience with newer recordings) do very dry recordings and refuse to add synthetic reverb despite the lack of room information. That´s what I can live with, but synthetic substitution is something I want to avoid, unless I am VERY fond of the interpret. From Teldec I know (not from my own experience, but from someone who knows a recording engineer) that they work that way. What other big labels do you know that do so?
