Thank you for this excellent explanation of these terms! Unfortunately, many consoles have the Polarity flip switch labeled (incorrectly) as "PHASE". Ugh.
The two speakers are not 180 degrees out of phase in general, you have just chosen a frequency where it looks like it. The phase difference between the two are a linear phase shift, not 180.
You can also send top and bottom snare to a "snare bus" and look at the recorded graph of the result of with or without polarity switch. Then you can visually see the difference.
Finally! Someone who uses the terms correctly! Pin 2 hot? Hasn't always been that way. I have some recorders and microphones that are Pin 3 hot. Most of this has been standardized, but for many years it was a problem. There was a Tee Shirt at AES that read "F*** You, It's Pin 2!". I used to use a clicker to check out microphones. My valve Neumanns and most of my old Shures were Pin 3 hot. I just rewired the microphones.
Hey dude. Ive been looking into your topic about polarity switching for vocals and IEMs and how u made a video more about a singers inner hum in the description. But I don't see it? Could u point me to the video you talk about? Thank u!!!
Same logic applies to electrical 3-phase grids whom have 3 lines whom are in 120 degrees of each other. Love how the logic is all the same. Voltage, Frequency all the same logic.
Rather than flipping the polarity of the OHs why not delay the close mics to be time aligned with the OHs and come closer to having all frequencies in phase?
Belmont University. Maybe Berkley in Boston. But why? What audio job is going to ask you if you have a bachelor's degree? Audio is a trade. I went to Belmont and got a BBA in Music Business. And I'm glad I did, since I'm running my own business. But if your goal is to just do audio, you need to intern, not get a bachelors. That's my $0.02.
Funny story (to me at least)... growing up I had adult sized teeth in a growing boys body, so they looked giant and I got teased. Now they look normal and no one mentions it. Except maybe in some RUclips comments 😀

You're welcome! It's tough to shake old nomenclature sometimes.
It's the exact same thing
@@silkroad1201 No, it is not. Phase has a time element and polarity does not.

Yup , that polarity flip helps for 2 mics on the snare drum top and bottom. Sooo true,,,,,,
You can also send top and bottom snare to a "snare bus" and look at the recorded graph of the result of with or without polarity switch. Then you can visually see the difference.
Imagine finding that polarity inverted mic cable and using it somewhere else on accident... Insane!!

Thank you for this video🤍
Please make a video on Mixer Gain vs Fader
Maybe this could help.

Great stuff as always!

lol..
thats what I usually do HPfilter or LPfilter depending on use of the mic... also as feet back limiter.
Very helpful deep dive
Fantastic

that's awesome. I thought that's how it worked but I could never explain it that simply.
So in short, phase is dependent on the time variable, and polarity is dependent on the voltage variable. 🎤🥁
Now let's design a sub woofer👍
yup
Thanks

Great question! Sounds like a video topic for the future 😀
Where can I get a bachelor's degree in Audio

Hi Sir..
i'm still using an analog mixer. may i ask if the techniques and everything you're sharing is applicable to an analog mixer.. ?
Absolutely yes 👍

Are you trying to show us all of your teeth? They aight. :D

👍 The English language is indeed confusing 😅
