Change mic phase

[Edi Siljak]

Hi guys,

How can I reverse/change the phase of a mic (ribbon) in Cakewalk by Bandlab software?  Many thanks for helping!

each channel strip has a phase button.

pp 246 of the Manual

You can't change the MIC phase - but you could change the phase of a track. cakes own Channel Tools plug-in has a number of tools for dealing with phase.

While this is being asked - I am not sure what the best plugin is for this.  Not all phase corrections, as I understand it, are based on a simple inversion.

Hi, thank you very much. Yes, I was looking to change the track phase ofc.  Yes I am also looking for a plugin for Channel tools plugin, but as I read a bit, seems it is ommited from CbyB? Any alternative for phase corrections?

Channel Tools was added starting with CbB 2020.08

Cool thanks! How do I open Channel Tools in Cakewalk please?

If running CbB 2020.08 or newer, Channel Tools should be in the effects plug-in list.

I have an audio interface RME Fireface UFX II and for  "change mic phase" I can check that in the Total Mix inside the RME.

Different thing if you speak about inverting the phase of a track.

To reverse the phase on a ribbon mic, you just have to turn it around.

You probably just nailed the reason why the OP is asking the question.
