No, not true. The orchestra is still live - they're just located off-stage. Certain portions may be pre-recorded for logistics, but I know there's still a live orchestra for the show.

Re: Gaelen - yes, I agree she was trying to copy a lot of Orfeh's performance. She didn't really get the Boston accent down - it sounded forced so when she'd deliver lines that really required the accent (14 years, for example), it seemed out of the blue.
