In your opinion, how much is crowd noise compared to music?
I would honestly say that during the music the ambient tracks are maybe 20% of what you hear (real room sound reverb and natural delay), but the applause really only comes through in the ambient tracks. Without it the recording is a dry stale sounding typical soundboard, I guess. Grab the sample and have a listen. That is from the 45 minutes that has the R-04 mp3 mixed in... IMHO it's warmer and richer and fuller this way, and if I didn't mention it nobody would know the difference between the first half of the show (with mp3 ambiance) and the second half (with de-noised MD).
