I've made minimalist recordings using some of the most neutral

I then played the recording back through my studio monitors, positioned
at the same location in the room where the instrument and mic were, when
the recording was made. The results were remarkably lifelike.


Yes. And I'd say one of the best sources is a good 'fruity' male voice.

An STC or Coles 4038 is a good mic for the recording. As you say, many top
notch studio mics haven't got a flat response.
