Both sound like real "instruments" to me. However, by miking so closely
low frequency components are picked up that would normally not be heard
or recorded in an orchestral setting. Arny's triangle recording is not
al all how a triangle sounds a few feet or more away. It's similar to
the bass cancelation of dipolar speakers at normal distance due to the
front and back waves meeting. However if you put a microphone right
next to the speaker diaphragm of such a speaker the mike will pick up
the bass full strength. Sorry I'm not more eloquent in my description.

Hi TB,

Respectfully, there's no way in hell that those are real acoustic
instruments. It is a synth. The triangle is real; a terrible
instrument, but real.
