[QUOTE="Kip Conner, post: 24970, member: 445"] Re: Congos... What your favorite mic? Maybe this should be another thread, but I have heard that 3' foot rule before by a studio guy, only he quoted and mics that are more than 3' need not be concerned with phase. I've never really understood the logic behind either of those statements. If anyone can explain this, it would be great. The phase response of a mic changes (in reference to it's counter-part) as you move it away based on the arrival time, yes? It's a the distance that causes the actual phase shift, the response would be same. If the phase response of a capsule was absolutely linear (0 degrees from 20 to 20) I can see how that statement might work. Anyone explain the logic behind this "rule"? I'm wildly curious. [/QUOTE]
