When two identical frequencies are cycling 180\u00b0 opposite each other, complete phase cancellation occurs.<\/p>\n<h3>The Science Behind Phase Cancellation<\/h3>\n<p>Sound waves cycle at a specific rate per second designated by the wave&#8217;s frequency, which we also refer to as &#8220;hertz.&#8221; Hertz are specifically defined as one cycle per second, and a complete cycle consists of a peak and a subsequent trough equal in amplitude. When we say that a frequency is 500 Hz, for example, we&#8217;re literally referring to a sound wave completing 500 cycles per second.<\/p>\n<p>Two of the same frequencies starting their cycles at the exact same time (&#8220;in phase&#8221;) are perceived as an increase in amplitude. This concept is referred to as constructive interference.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, if the same frequencies are traveling at different or opposite rates, they are out of phase. At 180\u00b0 difference&#8211;in which one cycle is at its peak and the other is at its trough&#8211;destructive interference known as phase cancellation occurs. The perceived sound is loss of the <a href=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/in-phase-vs-out-of-phase\/\">out-of-phase frequencies<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>READ ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/vital-synth-review\/\">Vital Synth Review<\/a><br \/>\nREAD ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/best-dynamic-microphone\/\">Best Dynamic Microphones<\/a><br \/>\nREAD ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/cockos-reaper-daw-review\/\">Cockos Reaper DAW Review<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Phase cancellation can be an issue during both the tracking and mixing processes.

If the mics are not in the exact same space, one will receive the sound slightly later than the other, causing the signal to be out of phase. Repositioning the<a href=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/best-cheap-microphones\/\"> microphones to eliminate phase issues<\/a> is generally the best bet. However, in certain circumstances, a polarity reversal switch on a channel strip or preamp can be engaged to flip the signal&#8217;s cycle, bringing it back in phase.<\/p>\n<p>To ultimately avoid phase problems on a multi-miked single instrument, you&#8217;ll have to be sure the microphones&#8217; capsules are as physically close together as possible. For spaced mics, placing them equidistant from the source will ensure that the direct sound is captured without time delay.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s also worth noting that mics should be placed at least a few feet away from walls. There is potential for the mic to pick up reflections off the walls which are not in phase with the direct sound entering the transducer.<\/p>\n<h4>The 3:1 Rule<\/h4>\n<p>If you intend to distant mike a sound source with multiple microphones, applying the 3:1 rule can reduce unwanted phase cancellation and interference. The rule states that for every unit of distance a microphone is from a sound source, the next nearest mic must be at least 3 times that distance away.<\/p>\n<p>So, if the first microphone is 1 foot away from the sound source, the second should be placed a minimum of 3 feet away from the first mic with the capsules on the same plane.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_39924\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-39924\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-39924 size-full lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/What-Is-Phase-Cancellation.png\" alt=\"What Is Phase Cancellation?\" width=\"600\" height=\"398\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/What-Is-Phase-Cancellation.png 600w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/What-Is-Phase-Cancellation-80x53.png 80w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/What-Is-Phase-Cancellation-320x212.png 320w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/What-Is-Phase-Cancellation-256x170.png 256w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/What-Is-Phase-Cancellation-226x150.png 226w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/What-Is-Phase-Cancellation-40x27.png 40w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/What-Is-Phase-Cancellation-160x106.png 160w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/What-Is-Phase-Cancellation-20x13.png 20w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/What-Is-Phase-Cancellation-513x340.png 513w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/What-Is-Phase-Cancellation-15x10.png 15w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/What-Is-Phase-Cancellation-452x300.png 452w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/What-Is-Phase-Cancellation-14x9.png 14w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/What-Is-Phase-Cancellation-385x255.png 385w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-39924\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Diagram courtesy of Homestudiocorner.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Picture miking a choir. Inexperienced engineers tend to want to place as many mics as possible in front of the ensemble, all in close proximity. You can probably imagine that the phase and interference issues would be a nightmare. Ok, perhaps not a &#8220;nightmare,&#8221; but the choir would sound thin from all the phase cancellation.<\/p>\n<p>If you place five microphones 6 feet away from a choir, and each mic is 3 feet from the other, you&#8217;re forgoing the 3:1 rule. Chances are, it won&#8217;t sound pretty. Instead, fewer mics, spaced appropriately, will yield better, in-phase results.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s complete the choir image utilizing the 3:1 rule, with simple numbers picked for ease of understanding. Use a 3-mic setup, and place the first in the center of the group, 3 feet away. Measure 9 feet from either side of the center microphone and place the others there, making sure the capsules are all aligned. Voila! We&#8217;ve managed a multi-miked ensemble, while being conscious of the 3:1 rule for the best, most accurate representation of the sound source.<\/p>\n<p>Read Also: <a href=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/jamulus-review\/\">The \u2018Zoom\u2019 for Musicians<\/a><br \/>\nRead Also: <a href=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/apogee-duet-3-review\/\">Portable Audio Interface\u00a0<\/a><br \/>\nread Also: <a href=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/best-free-vu-meter-plugins\/\">Best FREE VU Meter Plugins<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Comb Filtering<\/h3>\n<p>A comb filter is a frequency response with consecutive, steep notches resembling the teeth of a comb. Comb filtering is a result of reflected sounds being added back to a direct sound. The time delay between the direct and reflected sounds means that specific frequencies are attenuated (out of phase) and others are reinforced (in phase).<\/p>\n<p>Phase cancellation is what causes particular frequencies to be attenuated in comb filtering. As the out-of-phase reflected signal combines with the in-phase direct signal, frequencies are lost. Comb filtering and phase cancellation is a concern in untreated acoustic environments. Depending on the severity of comb filtering in an acoustic space, the tonal characteristics of a mix can be drastically altered by phase cancellation and reinforcement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/sound-synthesis-basics\/Phase cancellation is an acoustic phenomenon in which two or more &#8220;out of phase&#8221; sound waves result in weakened or lost frequencies.
