Hi Roger--
I did reverse the phase and it had no affect. It looks/sounds as two
of the R4's inputs (or other patching condition) were summing the the
stereo signals somehow-- possibly in addition to a cable phase
problem. I'm not sure I'd associate the thin sound with the polar
patterns involved. I believe he had the 20's right next to the
3032's- all omnis. If the mics were wired wrong, they wouldn't have
worked corectly in the portadat. Rob D.
