Robin,
The reverb is digital stuff from Pro Tools' bundles of software plugins.
I did not do any eq or compression with the Telemann, usually don't eq, but do tend to use a touch of compression in a fuller group mix. Although, a little goes a long way with that.
I have three different spaces in my house where I record wind parts.
If I am doing double duty as sound engineer, I just stay in my music office and play seated on my piano bench, with the mic an arm's length away, at head height and aimed down to mid oboe.
If I am just recording oboe or flute, I use a high-pass filter and it does a remarkable job keeping low range environmental noise off the recording. Cars and trucks driving by...
Yes, I'd be very interested for you to record and post some of the same things.
Doing duets by one's self is a little odd, at least getting started with the first part alone. What I usually do is play that, do the 2nd part then re-do the first part.
It starts to sound more like a live performance that way.
take care, --
-Craig
