put. InPhase includes mono, stereo, and dedicated live
components, plus InPhase LT, a simplified version that gives you easy access to
creative phase manipulation.
Phasing can cause drops in volume and wreak havoc on your frequency response and
stereo image; InPhase gives you the power to get your tracks back on track.
1.3 Concepts and Terminology
Phasing is a phenomenon which occurs when two or more signals are summed
together. For this reason, when discussing phasing issues, we are always referring to
the relationship between two or more signals.
InPhase uses allpass filters to correct phasing issues between tracks. An allpass filter
is a signal processing filter that affects only the phase, not the amplitude of the
frequency-response of a signal.. A 1st order allpass filter is defined by the frequency at
which the phase shift is exactly 90°; a 2nd order filter is defined by the frequency at
which the phase shift is 180° and by the rate of phase change, hence its Q factor.
1.4 Components
WaveShell technology enables us to split Waves processors into smaller plugins, which
we call components. Having a choice of components for a particular processor gives
you the flexibility to choose the configuration best suited to your material. InPhase
includes the following components:
o InPhase Mono
o InPhase Stereo
o InPhase LT Mono
o InPhase LT Stereo
o InPhase Live Mono
o InPhase Live Stereo
o InPhase Live LT Mono
o InPhase Live LT Stereo
Please note: All components have 20 ms latency, excluding Live components, which
have no latency.
