So, I taped the Black Keys last night with my stealth rig (AT853Rx ->W-Mod UA-5 -> NJB3), and in some spots it sounds like there is a flanger/phaser effect running on one or both of their instruments. I had some earplugs in that were block about everything, so I couldn't really critically listen to what was coming out of the stacks that well, so I don't know if it was actually on the instruments. OTOH, I was able to hear clearly enough to notice some static coming out of the PA for a portion of a couple songs, but did not notice a flange/phase effect. Further, it sounds like the effect is sometimes on the drums- which is possible, but not very common...
Now, I have always heard that what happens in phase cancellation is that you tend to lose a lot, or most of the low end in the recording, but I have never heard of it making an actual flange/phaser sound.
Any insights on this? I can post a couple mp3 clips of some problem spots when I get home... but does this sound like phase cancellation?
thanks
