It may, of course, simply be down to a self-opionated sound/recording engineeer. Some of these seem ignorant of what period instruments actually sound like in the flesh and seek their own subjective recording 'balance' and tonal qualities. They, in their ignorance, may even think a viola da mano 'should' sound like a lute and make the necessary adjustments MH __________________________________________________________________

Is the difference more apparent when we are in the same room? Should we suspect they have been mixed (deliberately? inadvertently?) to make them more similar?
