A/B comparison is a problem. I can think of 2 stark
album examples of Chamberlin use; "7th Sojourn" by the
Moodies, and "Tidal" by Fiona Apple. Not much
layering on either one, due to the clarity of the
instrument. A very dry Chamby is played over the
final credits of "Boogie Nights". Also, download some
of the Chamby/Tron samples from Dave Kean's listening
room, and one can do quick comparisons. Pretty dry, &
some are from different sources. Same source on the 3
Violins though, so it can easily be compared.
