APPLICATIONS

Acoustic Guitar - Mic and Direct Box

A good application to try out the Phazerbank's capabilities is recording

with a direct box and a microphone. Start by setting up a mic and a DI box

and connect them to separate channels on your mixing console. Adjust

both signals in the monitors to an equal level and panned to the center.

Once you have the DI and mic set up take a look at the time line be-

low. It will help you understand what you are hearing. When the guitar

is strummed the DI sends an electronic signal at near the speed of light

while the mic has to wait for the slower sound waves to travel through the

air. This creates a phase-o󰀨set between the two signals that is measured

in degrees. Listen for a few moments to the combined signals without the

Phazerbank before continuing.

So, how does it sound? What you are hearing is the complex interaction

between the DI, mic and the room causing phase cancellations at some

frequencies and reinforcement at others. It may sound good or it may not.

It depends on where those cancellations and reinforcements are occur-

ring in the audio spectrum. Before the Phazerbank, the only way to 'tune'

the phase response would have been to move the mic around the studio

until a sweet spot was found.

Now, insert the Phazerbank into the DI signal path. While mic placement

is still very important, the Phazerbank gives you another approach. In-

stead of moving the mic around the studio, use the SHIFT control to tune

the phase of the DI signal until it aligns with the mic in a way that sounds

good to you.
