Is there a standard practice for Overheads (spaced pair) and room mics in regards to moving the track for phasing?
I have generally left Overheads alone and thought they sounded fine.
I know when I record a guitar track and use a room mic from several feet away, I will definately notice an improvement if I align the wave signals of the guitar tracks to put them in phase.
So back to drums.
I havent tryed messing with the drums to ensure that the snare for example matches the snare wave hit and is in phase.
And same with a room mic.
If you have a room mic like a Rode NT4 from 6 feet away, would you generally mess with the phasing and realign the track to the rest of the close mic drums?
