 Re: What exactly is a focused sound?

Thanks for the sax link, which has a decent try at giving a more precise meaning to some of these commonly used words. But even so, I don't find it satisfactory. I suggest that threads like this will basically go round in circles forever until we actually put up some specific sounds. And this shouldn't be hard with the sheer quantity of recordings on youtube. All we need to do is post a pair of recordings and say "I think A is more focused/bright/dark/airy/spread/thin/warm than B" - possibly followed by "and I prefer A to B in this regard". Let me start:

A: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwBMreKT49k&t=435s

B: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1yGgC3IIFY

I think B is a warmer sound than A, and I prefer B to A in this regard.

If people can post similar examples for focused/unfocused, I would find it really informative as I've never really felt I knew quite what's meant when this term is used.
