Gtrs, Gtrs, Gtrs!! Recording, Mixing and Phase considerations!

Hi!
What would happen if you find a good placement for both microphones in front of the amp, but then you realize that you're not that satisfied with the tones and decide to add, let's say, more gain.
Do you have to change the position of the mics again?
Thank you guys!

if you're recording at 96 khz that equates to 3.57291mm per sample.

So even if you slip a track at 96khz by 1 sample you are mimicking a 3.5mm movement of the mic.

Hey that's 1/8th of an inch.

knowledge like this is the reason i lurk

So does this mean that at 44.1 Khz 1 sample = about 8 mm...?

I think air temperature/density changes the speed of sound. Not that it matters, very smart of you there!

Billy Bush, the white noise test is very interesting. I heard something similar before in a book called 'Mixing With Your Mind' and he suggested pink noise. Wouldn't this make sense above using white noise, as a fuller spectrum is more audible (even if it is not technically balanced)?
