Hey I was under the impression that whenever you start mixing you have to make sure the overhead hits line up with the toms, snare, and bass drum hits in order to reduce phase cancellation. Also in a case where a microphone is positioned further away then others like recording a guithr amp and having one mic close and one micing the room that after words they would need to be lined up to reduce phase. Now my roommate told me this idea was crazy.
Am I wrong is this totally ludicrous? My explanation for doing this would be the further mics get the sound later then the closer ones so they need to be lined up in order to make it sound right?
if anyone can answer this question it will be greatly appreciated.
