Answer

Why does sound at open‑air Mallorca concerts often feel different from indoor performances?

Open‑air venues lack the natural reverberation of enclosed spaces, so organisers rely on microphones and loudspeakers to carry the music. If equalization is too aggressive or speakers are poorly positioned, the result can emphasise overtones and mute the low end, making the mix feel imbalanced. A well‑designed setup and careful listening are essential to preserve timbre outdoors.
