B4 - Phase Cancellation
Today, we learnt about what phase is and what phase cancellation is. The below picture is an example of constructive phase where the sine wave that is quite loud as the waves are cohesive due to them going the same way. However, the picture below here is an example of destructive phase (or, out of phase) as having the waves work in opposite directions causes them to cancel one another out which makes the sine wave a LOT quieter. When working with phase and changing it from destructive phase to constructive phase, you have to be careful with the volume levels as it is very easy to damage your hearing due to the constructive phase sine signal being much louder than the destructive phase. In order to prevent hearing damage, move the track to fit into a constructive phase (or, use the polarity shift button to flip the wave 180 degrees) with the volume to zero and then gradually turn the volume up enough so you can hear it but no more because it is extremely easy to damage ...
