Offer the listener clear, clean inputs and let | Offer the listener clear, clean inputs and let him/her construct the sonic image in the mixer of the mind. Toss the sound into a room with a single Cylindrical Radiator® for each performer, and let the asymmetrical nature of the room produce the different sounds that suggest spaciousness.
