Situation:
While experimenting with recording multiple amp setups, I came upon a nice combination that is damn near perfect save for one problem.
The setup is fairly simple: guitar into A/B splitter, one signal to a POD, the other to a 100 watt half stack.
The pod is going direct to the comp via a mackie 1402 mixer-inputs 5 & 6 [aprox 2- ft. from the comp], the amp [which is aprox 12-15 ft. away in a sealed spare bedroom] is being miked by a sm57, input 1.
Either signal by its self is most superb, HOWEVER, combining the two results in what I can only describe as the classic symptoms of phasing, a kind of hollow notched sound, kinda like one of those old flangers that had the manual sweep knob that you could set where you want & get that sewer pipe sound, etc.
Is the problem the result of the different lengths that the signal must travel?
Anything else I might be overlooking?
Any Ideas
