Reverbertaion is much more important and may very well       register on a monophonic recording. The only remotely natural       stereo techniques are those employing two microphones and based on       phase difference (A-B, SASS) rather than loundness difference (X-Y).       Deplorably, very little of modern music is produced in tolerable       stereo.              ---         * Origin: nntps://news.fidonet.fi (2:221/6.0)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 120/340 601 221/0 6 226/30 227/114 229/101 426       SEEN-BY: 229/1014 240/1120 1634 2100 5138 5832 5853 8001 8002 8005       SEEN-BY: 249/206 317 261/38 280/5003 313/41 317/3 320/219 322/757       SEEN-BY: 331/313 333/808 335/206 364 342/200 382/147 2454/119 4500/1       SEEN-BY: 5020/1042       PATH: 221/6 335/364 240/1120 5832 229/426           |
