I'd heard that it was worth checking if your OHs were not only in phase with each other BUT also "in phase" with the rest of the kit (from this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNC5CZMawRc&list=PLleS-Mfyj_ffMRXOrhlyXh8Q3Cw6oLLjI&index=2 ) so I was looking into this (although not fully understanding if its actually "an issue" or not!) and I noticed the following:
The snare top and bottom (Green) are out of phase visually here (But I have switched the bottom snare mic polarity to resolve that) and the 2 OHS (Yellow) are in phase with each other, so far so good.
BUT
When you look at the delay between the snare mics and the OHs its @ 5ms. The mics are equally spaced above the snare.
So in a case like this is it an issue that the OHs are not "in sync" / "in phase" with the snare mics?
And if so what are the best remedies ( given that the OHs will always be some distance further away from the snare as the snare mics are)

Hi there
I'd heard that it was worth checking if your OHs were not only in phase with each other BUT also "in phase" with the rest of the kit (from this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNC5CZMawRc&list=PLleS-Mfyj_ffMRXOrhlyXh8Q3Cw6oLLjI&index=2 ) so I was looking into this (although not fully understanding if its actually "an issue" or not!) and I noticed the following:

Many thanks in advance.
