I think a little reverb flatters most music but worry this is injecting
a deliberate distortion into the recording/reproduction chain that we
see so much fuss about when it comes to stuff like the 'effects' of
using valve equipment in a recirding situation....??

True. But, the reverb [or what ever] effect could be achieved by the room
chosen for the recording...



Yes. The room (ambience) is precisely what the reverb software is trying to
create - hence the silly names on some of the presets like 'Metal Tank' and
'Sewer'!


This one (same player, same instrument, same recording setup):

.....is the somewhat OTT 'Cathedral' setting, but the interesting thing is
that all the people I have played it to have said they liked it!
