LOL!!! Well, you're right. It is interesting how the reverb is more obvious
in the straight-out digi clip. The 5042 sorta folds it into the mix whereas
it's more separately defined in the digi only track. Good call.

First sample sounds warmer, phatter, fuller than the second which sounds,
well, thinner, cooler. Interestingly, I'm registering those differences
through tiny little computer speakers. Not because my ears are particularly
good, but, I think, because the "effects" of each output setup are sonically
meaningful.

I picked it out too on my crappy comp speakers.
It wasnt that obvious but I was able to distinguish
between the two.
The 1 st was a little warmer.
It was torn at first since I think I prefer the performance in the 1st take.
I thought maybe that was biasing my decision.

So it seems I have progreesed "to a whole nuba lebel" .:-)
Cool thanks Ted.
For real though in this case to my ears at least in this particular
performance the processing really helps convey emotion and feel
in a positive way that actually helps the track.
