11.6 Using Input Delay
When one of the input channels is selected, you can set an input delay up to 85 ms in
0.1 ms increments. An input delay has many uses.
On small stages where the guitar amp and the kick and snare mics can be clearly
heard in the vocal mic, an input delay can “move up” the backline. Delaying the
backline so that the close mic’d signals and the bleed in the vocal mic align with
one another at the mixer will decrease comb filtering that blurs in the mix. This will
tighten the overall mix and give it more clarity and punch.
In large venues, the bottom snare mic can be aligned with the top mic, or the bass-
cabinet mic can be aligned with the direct signal to create a more coherent signal.
This is especially useful to prevent phasing problems.
