At the risk of sounding like the newbie I am (you didn't hear that),
why do live recordings always sound "better" than studio recordings,
even with mix level errors, people coughing or yelling, and absence of
the numerous overdubbings/effects such as one hears in songs like
"Bohemian Rhapsody"? Additionally, can I re-create this sound - maybe
playing back a studio recording in an auditorium, and recording that?
work mosdtly in lIVE production and I loath when someone wants me to play
thier "live" recording, mostly done as a direct to two track bootleg, not
professional multitracked and mixed down
IMO the results are almost always unlistenable
the exception being samll theater acoustic artists
