The only way I can download plugins is to hook up a phone and do a WiFi hotspot. It's possible that you might want to manually shift a note forward and back and listen for when you have the least phase cancellation, but there's no reason that a perfectly aligned start is any more (or less) likely to be the position of greatest cancellation, not with an instrument like vocal cords (and even if it did, they would need to be a robot for that phase relationship to endure for even a moment).I feel the pain! My recording computer is offline and doesn't have an internal internet card. The process of spinning up the vocal cords is far too imprecise for that. If you have two separate recordings of a human being singing an A 440 note, the phase relationship between the cycles of that note at any part of its length will have essentially no relationship to when they started the note. If you have a vocalist starting a note, blowing air through his or her vocal cords, that's not like starting a electric oscillator: the position of the peaks and valleys of the wave don't have a mathematical relationship to when the note started.
If you align them too tight (especially if they’ve been tuned very tight already), you’ll often get a bad sound.īut "align" literally only affects when the note starts. Not when you have separate performances of different pitches in different ranges. It's a concern when you have similar signals, such as recordings of the same instrument with different mics. The less alike two signals are, the less you give a shit about phase. There will always be constructive/destructive interference between signals, but you certainly don't worry about aligning their starts. If you have a 440 tone and a 1500 Hz tone, then what does it even mean for them to be "aligned" or "unaligned"? They're unrelated signals.
If you have two 440 Hz sine waves, then phase relationship becomes very important. This is when the crests of one wave line up with the troughs of the other wave and they cancel out completely. If you have literally the same signal, then you can get 100% cancellation if they're 90° out of phase. They're not the same signal or close to the same signal.
The same way you don't worry about phasing between a bass guitar and vocal. When aligning harmonies? o.O That doesn't math. I tried MAutoAlign from Melda and it sounded off compared to doing it manually
