Quote from: Chris"no period" ChurchThis is why good consoles and good mic preamps have Polarity switches because when it is inverted in the input stage of a preamp its absolutely correct with no discrepancies when its done in the digital domain depending on software/hardware sometimes errors in phase are introduced because the signal is not 100% converted to 180 degrees it might be 179.9 this is called phase errorhttp://www.turneraudio.com/tech/phase.htmlhttp://www.sfu.ca/sca/Manuals/ZAAPf/p/phase.htmlhttp://sound.westhost.com/pcmm.htm

I was saying that people confuse phase with polarity all the time when people are using room mics with a mixer output we are not talking about phase we are talking about polarity. Thats the issue I was talking about how people call a polarity reverse on a preamp a phase reverse that is not correct.
I wasnt disagreeing with you...not at all. I was quoting you because I agreed with you(even though you never use periods)teddyQuote from: Church-Audio on October 27, 2006, 09:49:46 PMQuote from: Teddy on October 27, 2006, 09:36:51 PMQuote from: Chris"no period" ChurchThis is why good consoles and good mic preamps have Polarity switches because when it is inverted in the input stage of a preamp its absolutely correct with no discrepancies when its done in the digital domain depending on software/hardware sometimes errors in phase are introduced because the signal is not 100% converted to 180 degrees it might be 179.9 this is called phase errorhttp://www.turneraudio.com/tech/phase.htmlhttp://www.sfu.ca/sca/Manuals/ZAAPf/p/phase.htmlhttp://sound.westhost.com/pcmm.htmAnd your point is?
