I had no answer about "reverbs" on - off on Bluethner Concert Recording AB (BA) . I understand , that everything is possible to "explain" , but on other sounds - presets this is not happened ... . & I understand , that sound very near to sound board become loud , I talk about distortion , not about sound volume, - maybe there is some adjustments, to not go to fuzzy sound ... . I understand , that near sound board volume is very high , & before, I explained , that if I move microphone not so much near sound board, it become distorted , if I move more near it become normal , as You say, the sound closer to the Deck, the sound level is higher.., as I say, that this does not happen in PTQ engine in these presets, in what I pointed out before . If somebody not trust to me I can make video file & show these strangers . These surprises are dangerous, if somebody adjust accdentally microphones in some points near sound board , it blow up Your speakers or damage equipment or Your ears. I'm not talking about jump in levels few 3 - 6 db's , when I move for egz. microphone up & down from sound board 5-30cm , level in this situation, (which I explain before), jump about 20 db up. & again I understand , that more near sound board more loud , but on the other presets it not happened if I move much near sound board microphones , why happens with these presets . I think , that need to repaire little bit these things in 5.2 version . I think, no matter how we adjust the acoustic piano sound, we should not hear the sound, might seem like a fuzz effect turned on, or the distortion of playing through the amp, even, when level compensation button is off . This sounds not as acoustic instrument sound board distortion .
I think, that there is in PTQ too much big focus on the microphones IR's. Naturally we listen piano not thru microphones ... . I think quite a lot of piano timbre colored by our speakers. Maybe is possible to have a "choice", to have a sound without different microphones IR's , or to have "neutral" - flat frequency response, or maybe << perfect - omni >> in menu , is that, what I hope ... At home I build special keyboard with omni - directional sound board speakers to produce PTQ sound more near to acoustic piano & I not need to have coloration with microphones IR's. I try to avoid the sound as, if someone had said with closed eyes ,- " Oh it sounds good , exactly like Bluethner with U87 microphones " ... I'd rejoice if somebody said , that sounds like real Bluethner. To have multi microphones choice is good for someone, who are training to record real grand or for some special audio projects. For that is good to have possibility to import own wav microphone impulses.
Well in any case, it's okay for the worse as said here before You, I just warned that it is possible by combining some settings to get the unwanted effects in some acoustic instrument presets. Sorry if I said something wrong.
