• Swap L/R (Left/Right) button: Swaps the left and right output channels. The swapping<br />
occurs after the Balance parameter in the signal path.<br />

Using Phase Inversion<br />
Inverting phase is useful for dealing with time alignm<strong>en</strong>t problems, particularly those<br />
caused by simultaneous recording with multiple microphones. Wh<strong>en</strong> you invert the<br />
phase of a signal heard in isolation, it sounds id<strong>en</strong>tical to the original. Wh<strong>en</strong> the signal<br />
is heard in conjunction with other signals, however, phase inversion may have an audible<br />
effect. For example, if you place microphones above and below a snare drum, you may<br />
find that inverting the phase of either microphone can improve (or ruin) the sound. As<br />
always, rely on your ears.<br />
Multichannel Gain<br />
Multichannel Gain allows you to indep<strong>en</strong>d<strong>en</strong>tly control the gain (and phase) of each<br />
channel in a surround mix.<br />
• Master slider and field: Sets the master gain for the combined channel output.<br />
• Channel gain sliders and fields: Set the amount of gain for the respective channel.<br />
• Phase Invert buttons: Invert the phase of the selected channel.<br />
• Mute buttons: Mute the selected channel.<br />
