danno858 PS - was that the German D? It sounded much like another piano I heard you play recently and I think you said it was the German D...
Good ear, Danno!
Yes, German D.
I wanted to soften it a bit, so I tried using the "mid side" mic (not the distant ambient mic) at full level.
Then added the closer Side A mic at -10dB. As I recall, 10 dB is approximately a subjective sense of twice (or half) as loud. No reverb other than the room sound from that mic.
I seem to recall that you speak French, so this might amuse you.
When I play this piece, I always take a time trip.
In 1968, I spent a few weeks in a house outside of Paris with some French college students. They used to torture me by trying to get me to pronounce "murmurer" without sounding like an American.
And there it is in this score... (and I still sound like an American).
