I think echo is necessary for the whistle. I've played in auditoriums and banquet halls where the sound is EPICC. Then I play in the car and it sounds...shitee.
The whistle needs some reverb, which is why its good to add artificial if you don't play in a large space :)
that can be true... However, this guy is an excellent whistle player. What he is using it for is depth of sound. When playing tunes solo on an instrument, like the whistle, reverb can help add depth... he clearly doesn't use it to mask mistakes.... l
@RyanDunsSJ yes but the sound quality is great. im living in america now from Ireland, this lifts my spirit to hear such wonderful playing. thank you :)
It's a nice reverb, not overstated. Don't you wish there was an accousic-reverb-effect you could clip on to the end of the pennywhistle? I play at Colonial Williamsburg, and unfortunately the most accousticly lively places are the ones least appropriate for whistle playing.
Makes me want to pick up the ten whistle now and start playing. Do you still give lessons on you tube?

Reverb is a tool to hide technical inaccuracies. You don't need gimmicks.

It's an O'Riordan in C. I apologize for the video quality - I shot it using my old laptop and the camera isn't great.

I agree the echo adds a "kind of" epic and mystertious feeling to it.
