Man I tried Auto Align, and it's really good, quite useful, saves a lot of time, I always check phase, but this is new for me, will definitely try it out!

This definitely opens up a lot of new possibilities. Glad to be in the Kult from day one! 🤘

Do you have educational coupons for teachers on the Kult quarterly plan membership?

Great to hear that! Looking forward to your review!

@@KohleAudioKult you're the man!

Happy to hear that! Thanks!

More than welcome! 🤘

Thanks mate! Great work on the plugin! 🤘❤️

Enjoy!

Thank you! You can make a demo video if you'd like ;-).

@@forwardaudio hmm, Kohle did a great one already, hard to beat, haha. But it definitely looks like something I’d use frequently (I’m dual miking cabs a lot), would love to compare it to my old method, this definitely looks like the quicker and more effective way.

Geilo! Freut mich!

GENIUS. Gah. Thank you for posting this, I gotta do the pluck maneuver now.

@@monkeyplusplus hell yeah go pluck those damn strings ha

Thanks. There will be a video about that recording session soon. Stay tuned.

Absolutely! As bright as a condenser but less edgy. That was eye-opening for me.

Good idea!

Yes. Same concept at least.

Agreed!

What do you mean with a stereo guitar track? If you are talking about efx, then you should simply do the correction before the efx. I don’t know any reason why an electric guitar should be stereo except for efx. If you are talking about acoustic guitars, miked in stereo, you can simply get away by using one side of the stereo signal as a sidechain trigger for the plug-in. No need to phase correct each side separately. That even makes things worse. Because you don’t want to change the relation of the two stereo channels.

@@KohleAudioKult I have several dozen Kontakt, Amplesound and other types of guitar sample libraries. Shreddage has quad tracking with DI support which such libraries are already phased corrected on the DI tracks, or as one would assume. But I use multiple brands so phasing is going to be an issue. I deliberately blend various distortions, cabs and impulse responses which does cause noticeable phasing issues from time to time. Some of my sample libraries do not have a DI track either to which I do find useful and some already are double tracked and processed which I do turn off whenever possible any reverb or delay efx, unless it produces the desired effect I want. These are stereo libraries already, some of which already have pre-processed distorted tones. Layering multiple libraries creates the tones that I choose. Sometimes phasing is not an issue at all but rather produces a desired scooped effect, but that is not the norm because then I have to make all the other tracks fit. Using an app like this will help me to also identify phasing issues beforehand because remixing guitar stems with phase issues often causes unwanted issues before the final mixdown and may need to be redone entirely. I do record my own limited guitar performances as well. I use both pedal boards and plugins interchangeably for both performance and libraries. I realize and deliberately do not conform to production techniques except where it is necessary. While standard mixing and producing guitar tracks produces well established pleasing guitar tones, I use my own experimental techniques to discover new tones. Since I travel and stay in hotels half the year doing construction (I use to try to lug my gear around), I do not have the luxury of making noise so I never have bought a guitar amp, although plan on doing so in the next year along with a professional reamp box to which I may have to build a soundproof box to put it in.

You're welcome!

Nope. But it’s easier to setup at half the price!

The Mimiq does something different. It creates fake doubles from a single guitar track. This plugin adjust the phase relation of two different signals of the same source.

I also have vocalign and it has been the biggest pain in the butt plugin I have used in my entire career. 😩 At least in Cubase.

Yes. In that case it might be cleaner to use two groups though.

Yes. Really good plugin too. I just preferred the layout of this one. And it’s half the price. I should get you inside the Kult btw. I’ll be in touch. 😜

Yeah, i use it on drums and gettind pretty awesome results. Kult sounds cool too!

Indeed!

Nope. It’s basically a full-Range delay. The interesting part is that it finds the right setting for you. The other thing I really enjoy is to be able to blend tracks without any volume changes. That makes it so much easier. But of course you can do that manually as well. That’s a good training!

@@KohleAudioKultNot sure what you mean by full range but they need more details if they want to sell a lot of these.

So if I watched the whole video I'd get my answer... my bad.

We do have a video on our channel too showcasing how to align DI and amped signals. So definetely a yes!

@@forwardaudio thank you! I'm definetely interested. I only use midi guitars but I stay away from creating tones with multiple amps and multiple IRs exactly because I don't like the result. From this video, I get the feeling I could be testing more if I addressed these issues. Do you have a trial? I'd love to give it a shot and maybe do a first impressions on my channel.

@@synapticschism Yeah, I can understand that. Even if you use IRs, if you combine multiple you run into phase issues as well. Although I would recommend our plugin faIRmageddon for that. That one phase aligns IRs too.

@@forwardaudio I still have the multiple amp sims part to deal with. Can faIRmageddon deal with both amp sims and IRs?

Kind of. I hate those grey backgounrds all modern prigrams have.

Hey! 🤘 There’s a video in the Tavern that explains it. Just wait until July 1st. Then we’re gonna send the license to all Kultists!

@@KohleAudioKult Oopps I haven't seen that video still!!! Sorry!! and thank you very much!!!

All good, buddy!

If that’s the case, I’m pretty sure there’s something wrong with your monitoring.

Sure! The plugin just analyses the incoming audio. The second example in the video IS a correction of two IRs basically.

Isn’t that just a Stereo Spreader? Didn’t know it could intelligently adjust the phase.

I’m not a fan of aligning overhead and room mics. It’s the delay that makes them sound „right“.

😵‍💫

This thing shifts one of the tracks so they both are in phase. That’s the important part. Not the mono summing.

Exactly, mono summing or stereo widening was just an extra function. The icing on the cake. The main aspect is the automatic phase alignment.

Yes. Tomorrow!

Du kannst das auch einfach mit einem Delay hinbekommen. Ist nur bei weitem nicht so schnell und komfortabel.

@@KohleAudioKult Ja, wenn ich eine E-Gitarre mit Mikrofonen abnehme, dann verändert sich die Phasenverschiebung ja nicht. Das kann man in Cubase auch direkt als Versatz an der Spur einstellen. Ich denke da eher an das Problem bei akustische Gitarre, weil man sich als Spieler beim Spielen immer ein wenig bewegt. Passt das Plugin den Versatz immer dynamisch an? Das wäre schon cool.

Sorry for that. As a Windows guy I usually don’t pay attention to the Mac world.

The M version is coming soon. faSampleDelay for example is already available for the latest M-Macs.

My exact question. What do I do when I have many mics on a cab?

Oh, probably would use the sidechain

Then you have to add several instances in serial.

@@KohleAudioKult when you do it in serial (all aligning to 1 source) can you still blend with the faders? Or do you use the plugin to blend them?

@@KohleAudioKult, sounds a little bit like pita 🙂 .

Which Neural DSP plugin corrects the phase of the mics on my acoustic guitar?

Then get in touch with the Kult support!

Relax, dude. It's called "a sense of humor." Dig it.
