Little Labs® IBP Phase Alignment Tool
-
Easily correct phase issues and creatively manipulate colors and textures.
The Little Labs IBP Phase Alignment Tool plug-in for UAD-2 hardware and Apollo interfaces lets you easily eliminate the undesirable hollow comb-filtered sound when combining out-of-phase and partially out-of-phase audio signals. Fully authenticated by Little Labs, the IBP Phase Alignment Tool plug-in is a “fix it” as well as a creative one, letting you tweak audio phase as a texture and tonal color.
Whether combining direct and miked signals, acoustic guitar and vocal mics, drum kit mics, or multiple split-guitar amps, the Little Labs IBP Phase Alignment Tool plug-in makes sure signal phase can be quickly and easily controlled and manipulated.Eliminate phase issues with multi-mic setups, DI/mic combinations, and live-recorded material
Place mics where they sound best, rather than limited phase-coherent positions
Tweak with real time, continuously variable phase sweep between 0° and 180° with all “in between”
Use Phase Center switch for greater control of either low or high frequency sources
“The Little Labs IBP plug-in is a powerful tool ... it makes mixing so much easier.”

Tone masher!
Great for experimenting with new tones in a mix when things sound a little stale.

Back to basics
This is a little nifty tool, does what is it supposed to do and it does it well. Most often than not we forget that great sound on multi-miced instruments comes from good phase coherency,...

Could be mistakenly overlooked.....
Wow! what a difference this makes to helping solve phase issues due to plugin latency. I've started to use parallel processing again via an aux send, rather than using plugins on a channel...

Phase alignment tool after re-recoring
I recently did a vocal recording the 3rd time, and was wondering why it did not sound as I expected. Fortunately I remembered the IBP Phase Aligment Tool - and now the result sounds...

Simple and perfect
Simple but very practical. You can adjust the phase step by step, it has worked very well to correct phase errors in grand piano recordings and drums.

Back to basics
This is a little nifty tool, does what is it supposed to do and it does it well. Most often than not we forget that great sound on multi-miced instruments comes from good phase coherency, the IBP, just like his hardware counterpart helps you achieve just that without the need of visual reference.

Could be mistakenly overlooked.....
Wow! what a difference this makes to helping solve phase issues due to plugin latency. I've started to use parallel processing again via an aux send, rather than using plugins on a channel strip with a mix knob (which tends to mean using more plugin instances).
This will now be in EVERY mixM. Kipp
Phase alignment tool after re-recoring
I recently did a vocal recording the 3rd time, and was wondering why it did not sound as I expected. Fortunately I remembered the IBP Phase Aligment Tool - and now the result sounds excellent - like I had expected. Somehow the hole in mid-range frequencies disappeared.

great to have in the "toolbox"
Admittedly, I wan't too excited to spend $$ on a plug in that isn't nearly as "sexy" as, say, the Chandler Curve Bender, or the Lexicon 224; but this thing so dang useful!! There's no quicker way to get drum samples in phase with the original drums, or to take the "recorded with a snorkel" sound out of a poorly multi-miked guitar cabinet. Nudging tracks in a DAW does not work nearly as well. Now that I have it, I can't work without it. Thanks to Jonathan Little and UA!

IBP Phase liner upper
Yup it does what it says. Too easy to just get on with tracking and stop chasing phasing issues in your mic placement or room.
O. Tewes
Klein, aber fein
Ein kleines Tool, was einfach zu bedienen ist und im Mix richtig Arbeit sparen kann. Ich wusste vorher nicht, dass ich es wirklich brauche, aber jetzt will ich es nicht mehr missen! Der Sound ist viel definierter und sauberer. Gute Sache!

L. Alin Gabriel
straight forward
excellent tool, does exactly what is supposed to do.
R. West
small plugin big difference
wasn't sure on this one but after using it on many things, i love it. thanks uad
P. Jonsson
An important tool
Very good for stereo guitar recording
M. Buzniak
This is a must have tool!
This is a dream come true for me as I'm always kind of crazy about my phase coherence. I love how much control this thing is giving me. Multiple guitar amps with multiple mics? No problem. DI - MIC? No problem. Direct shell mics - overheads? No problem. Thank you UAD, I will sleep so much better now.
D. Kreutzberg
Nice little tool
It‘ll definitely get its place in my chains. Something that was really missing in my tool box!
p. gandhi
accurate
its very good plugin to solve phase issues, as little tweeking here and there helps alot to improve your mix
J. Preston
Handy Phase tool!
I already have the analog version of this Little Labs gem, but it's so nice to be able to put a plug on any channel I want and with the same delicious result. You just sweep it around until you like what you hear, and almost always it's better than without it. Very happy with the digital version. Tempted to sell the analog...but I think I'll keep it.
