You're right.
During recording ambiance is alway's added, from the studio/room itself, most of the time inperceptable, mostly from digital processing wich sucks.
In years gone by echo chambers were used (the famous chambers of Capitol for example) or added delay, reverb with tape and heads extra for it. ( Sun slapback echo for example) That sounded more natural than all that digital fiddling around.
No ambiance like the early Hank Snow, Hank Williams and the recording principles of the fifties mono recordings have my preference, my own livingroom is the ambiance, I don't like thatmassive ambiance on most recordings like in the first years of stereo and now on multichannel. Al annoying tricks.
