Thanks for the compliments!
But this is where electronic equipment (recording microphones and play-back speakers) can change the perception of sound.
The crow demo was on the same reed as the Bach.
All my recordings were on reeds that sounded generally the same - some differences, but you can still identify "my" sound. In the 1st recording (Gammal Fabodpsalm fran Dalarne), the microphone and room layout gave a sound with more buzz on all the equipment I used to listen (I don't like buzzy oboes unless its eastern-European folk music etc.). On the 3rd, not so much buzz, but more clarity, less warmth.
=> I don't know, I have to test, if different software playing back the same file changes the sound. Maybe You-Tube in the browser is different than Windows Media and maybe different than Apple Quick Time and different than VLC Media...???
Some other contributors have indicated to me that part of the problem is that I recorded in small rooms. Usually, it is preferable to tweak the sound using software. Instead, I want to find a better place to record, but multi-track recording makes life a lot easier.
