A simple guide to phasing
Posted by Colonel Pleasure on 19 May 2008 - 4:09pm.
Delighted to see some old-fashioned technical discussion on here, following the Abba jiggery-pokery and the phasing thread. There may still be a few who remain confused by phasing, so this little clip (which is possibly an out-take from a Word podcast) will easily resolve all your queries about the subject.
Next week, it's crystal radio kits.

Do you know what?
I've got this record. It's called something like "How To Test Your Stereo". I'm going to get it out.
No, you're not
You're gayng to get it ite.
My Dad's got one too,
(Sorry David!) from Decca, some sort of showcase for what they called "Full Frequency Dynamic Range".
There's a track with a train approaching from one side, roaring past the listener, and disappearing up the other speaker. There's also a ping-pong bit as well, and you can guess the way they play that gimmick:
Ping____________________________________________________Pong
Ping____________________________________________________Pong
Ping____________________________________________________Pong
Ping____________________________________________________Pong
Innocent pleasures.
What a closing line...
"And now I'm on the right, with a metronome and a very pretty girl."
Oh I say...
You like Ping Pong then?
You've reminded me of the greatest record ever made about Ping Pong. Top in a field of one. Also has 'stereo' effects.
Is there anything better than the female vocal on this extreme rarity?
