Unknown soldier · 9th November 2005

I'm mostly using the close mic (sm57) and using a bit of the room mic (AT4050) to add a little depth to the dry, up front close mic. At some point the room mic mixed in becomes to much and it's obvious, and it sounds more like a live recording (and the hollow sound starts to kick in).

Maybe I need some pointers here. How do you guys deal with mixing close and distant mics without phase issues? the little labs box? Obviously it's done and done right. Obviously I don't know....

thanks
