Hey there, Im posting this so we can discuss a lil about the role of phase between mics when recording a real amp, and the emulation of this in the axe fx. I've seen many pro mixers saying that playing with phase can bring your tone a nice character and even make it more defined. And when they say "playing with phase" they refer to making them OUT of phase. In certain spots the comb filtering produces nice tones. What are your thoughts on this?
Now... If in the axe you put a room IR and a close miked IR, the result will not be real because the only thing happening there is mixing two different EQ's (from each IR), and not the relationship that happens when you really put a mic in a distant spot. The answer could be to add a very short delay and adjust till it sounds right, so there is some phase cancellation. Comments?
