It was recorded out of phase. Amatures. Lol.

Probably, there's some latency problem between both tracks? How is it possible to have half-half period issue, if the source is the same?

In phase enough ;)

Never mind the snare how awesome does that bass drum sound. So full yet defined.

Its amazing how some people's ears pick up some things that others do not. I'm always hearing things that my band mate never hears - I started to think I was crazy. "you don't hear that buzz?! - you don't hear that weird vibration?! - you don't hear that pumping?!". I guess its just the way our brains process what we are hearing.

Seriously though! I'm on my macbook laptop speakers and the phase flip is a drasticcc improvement... My guess is they hadn'y had enough experience to develop their sense of hearing for mixing yet at the time of their comment.

i been doing this for over 15 years and even though i learnt this time and time again by trial and error and then forget it, its good to have some one slap you in the face with it just as a refresher, only time i focus on phase is when i mix vocals, always forget the meat it can add to kicks and snares as well

It sounds really tight.

Brilliant findings. Although I find it to be best solely within theory. If taught by theory, what you say makes sense, but hearing as what it did to the outcome, then I'd have to believe that it is erred.

Thanks for all that good information! You are bringing up a huge point about the distructive nature of phase error. Instead of quitting with the polarity switch, Bring up the overhead(s) and snare, the zoom in tight. Slide the snare track(s) to conform to the OVH's regarding the waveform. The phase switch only gives us a 180 degree shift, Sliding the tracks can even yield a more focused and fuller result. Time is phase. Thanks for all the great clips!

Another AWESOME tip provided! I'm not even using as complex a sequencing/mixing program, but I know enough and you used enough different terminology that I was able to tweak the settings according to the verbiage my program uses to bring my snare through. Definitely glad I subscribed!

Of course, if that happens, you can just select the waveform and nudge it by around 100 samples at a time until it starts sounding fat again.

why use a mix bus? why not just use a master fader to process?
