Updated Homemade Teaser Video:
Earlier this month, I made available my own teaser video of Thomas Heywood playing the BWV 542 fugue live at Melbourne Town Hall, and had alternately faded between synchronized audio and video of my own performance of the same piece. You will recall that every attempt was made to duplicate the registration, phrasing, tempi and articulation of Heywood's original performance using a beta copy of the IA MTH organ.
This time, I uploaded the same Thomas Heywood live performance, but with the entire audio track of the Inspired Acoustics MTH sample library grafted to the video. In essence, you will be viewing Heywood's performance (with zero percent of the original audio track) and listening to the soon-to-be-released IA sample library at the same time.
Here's the URL of the newest Heywood video / IA MTH VPO audio:
EDIT 09FEB2018: Youtube video was deleted because of possible copyright infringement. End Edit.
The sound of the previous video was exactly as it comes to you out-of-the-box, with zero post processing of any kind on my part. In contrast, in today's video submittal, I did post-process the audio of the sample library with Izotope Ozone 8 and added Altiverb 7's Sydney Opera House convolution impulse response. Why? The original Heywood video was played to a full house, whose audience would have soaked up the reverberation. Thus, the Heywood video was post-processed with compression, mid+side band, and some third party reverb. My most recent youtube video is meant to be heard by the general public, so I attempted to apply post-processing to the audio in similar amounts.
Personally, the out-of-the-box audio of the earlier teaser video has more sparkle and clarity than what is presented in the video uploaded just today.
Enjoy,
Joe
