Voxengo PHA-979 by Voxengo (Plugin Review)

Voxengo PHA-979 is a plugin that allows you to apply an arbitrary phase shift to sound material, this is achieved by linear-phase design. It features a set of controls that allows you to perform phase alignment of mono or stereo audio material.

Another handy feature is the flexible multi-band correlation meter which you can routinely use to configure delay and phase parameters with the highest level of precision possible, and on top of that, you can use the mid/side channel balance and panning controls that permit you to record stereo microphone pairs into a single stereo track without resorting to dual mono recording (on separate tracks) which usually becomes time-consuming in further editing.

PHA-979 can also be used to solve various phasing problems arising from the microphone placement chosen during the track session or even help you to align drums and other instruments to each other bringing punch and time coherence not attainable by the ordinary time-aligning alone.
