Скачать или смотреть Raw, Produced or Faked, Which One Do You Prefer?

In this video I am playing my metal arrangement of a couple first bars from Chopin's Scherzo no. 1 in three different versions.
The first one is an unedited video of me playing the piece to a backing track. Audio and Video recorded by my smartphone.
The second version is produced, meaning that I recorded the piece phrase by phrase with a piece of cloth wrapped around the strings acting as a muter. Here, the audio is recorded into my interface and mixed with the backing track.
The last version uses what some people call "modern recording techniques" - the piece is recorded at half speed with string muting, ensuring that every note can be played clean. Afterwards this is sped up by 100%. This is what many modern and polished sounding bands do, especially in progressive metal, technical death metal, deathcore etc. And of course many of the social media guitarists that received a lot of attention and made careers out of this. Every method has its pros and cons. Which do you prefer?
