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.”

You need this for multi mic’d instruments
I use this primarily on drums, but works great on any multi-mic’d instrument. Adds punch and weight when you align the kick and snare mics to overheads....

Weight added
Turn that phase adjust knob and the weight and depth that you never knew was missing suddenly reappears - another essential tool fo the mix engineer.

Indispensable tools
This is the perfect tool for fixing phase issues With multiple mics recording (like drums).
Love itJ. Lardinois
I've never found this useful.
I just never really use this. I've tried many times, but it's much harder to dial in than competing products considering that it doesn't have any visual feedback. Even though it's possible to dial in just fine, it's not worth the time if you own other, better products.

Great utility!
I've been using this quite a bit since I got my new Apollo x8 set up.
Been super handy with lining up multiple kick drum mics, overheads and room mics.
Super easy to use, just slowly turn the delay dial until everything fattens up and sounds the way I want it to.
Excellent utility plugin.V. Ruzicic

Very nice plug-in
G. Carpenter
Excellent tool for bass
Use it on input and get your Bass DI and Amp right at the start. Commit and don't worry about it again = joy. Such a great plug in!

Dovrebbe essere in ogni canale del mixer
Da anni mi sono sempre limitato ruotare la fase del canale, spostare il microfono decine di volte e registrare. In mix stessa cosa ma allineando manualmente le tracce. Con questo plugin puoi fare la stessa cosa con in più tutte la corsa da 0 a 180^
F. Heinze
Must have...
...when recording with more than one microphone. Simple and fast solution for phase problems.
A clean phase is the first thing to start, better than buying the next expensive miracle plugin.J. Woods
