I hear what you're saying Puff, but I also hear a difference in the performance of the guitarist. The keyboard sample is tough to guage because I'm not crazy about the timbre.

Well, with me being the guitarist, there was really no difference in my performance. That is a lost riff I have been looking to place a million times and have played a million times for many years. If you are hearing anything, it’s two completely duplicate states of boredom with the progression, played the same.

Are there subtle differences in my playing? Sure, I'm not a robot. Are there huge dynamic shifts in my playing that would warrant this a/b test useless? Or were there adjustments made to the mic position in relation to the guitar? No, absolutely not, I made sure not to have that happen to avoid comments like this. But I think we knew they would come anyway. Sometimes you can just never win.
