quick and easy fix for phasing issues on overheads or other stereo pairs.

Um.. at least parts of it will be.

i realize this. my point was, when dealing with complex waveforms in this situation, timeshifting does not "fix" phase problems, in only changes them.

if you have two simple wave forms happening at different points in time, they are still in phase as long as they rise and fall together.... therefore, timing discrepancies between tracks do not equal phase problems as the original poster suggests. its just not that simple.

Note that no where in the article does it ever mention he takes a shot:


"A new book alleges that Sir Menzies and four members of Charles Kennedy's inner circle hid his alcoholism from the public and most of the party through two general elections and that he had a serious drinking problem when he became the party's leader in 1999.

The book by Greg Hurst, political correspondent of The Times, says the illness was kept quiet even when Mr Kennedy had a spell in rehab - apparently abroad so that he would not be recognised.

"Charles Kennedy struggled with a severe alcohol problem throughout his period as leader," says the book, Charles Kennedy: A Tragic Flaw. "He drank gin and tonic, or wine. On the occasions when Kennedy drank to excess his condition might simply manifest itself with a pungent smell of alcohol around him the next day. "

In 2003, Mr Kennedy and his inner circle agreed that he should call a press conference to "set the record" about the rumours about his drinking. But after sleeping on it, he changed his mind and the public confession was dropped.

He admitted his problem when confronted by a wider group of senior party figures in 2004 soon after he was too ill to take part in the Commons debate on the Budget. A young aide was dispatched to his south London home after he failed to arrive at Westminster or answer phone calls. According to the book, Lord Rennard, the party's chief executive, asked Mr Kennedy: "You're an alcoholic, aren't you?"

After a pause, the party leader replied: "Yes."

Mr Taylor told him: "You must never drink again. The next time you pick up a drink, you give up being leader."



So... There you have it

:cool:
 
Not to belabore it -I'm just just a little out of phase with your trane of thought... :)

Yes, agree completely- We have differences in position response patterns, and time paths from width differences and external reflections all messing with our 'text book alignments..

You seem to actually be making the OP's case here. It's exactly because we have rather full spectrum (plus the multi-path) coming off the kit and not simple signal -that only certain frequency intervals at given distance differences can be both 'out of time' and in phase right?

I'm not sure he even meant anything that complicated. Simply put, ignoring multipath, multicapture and other multisyllabic words, and just looking at the definitions straignt on: if you have, say, a 1kHz signal, any time shift evenly divisible by 1/1000th of a second will result in a signal that is phase coherent with the original signal.
