Phase problems after Processing SD2 file with TComp/EXP



Hi!

I was "mastering" a Horn band album a few hours ago and then I faced this problem..

My client, the conductor, felt he conducted with a too low bpm.. yes, after almost 6 months of recording/editing/ production's day 01.



Ok, I could do the TC exp to every single track..OH My God...



Examining the final SD2 44k/24 bit PT 5.1.1 TDM file (Mix system) which sounded ok before TComp/ exp... Phase was fine too.



I processed the file with Digirack's Tcomp/exp audiosuite plugin and then, it started sounding quite funny in Mono.



Phase read-out at PAZ becomes aggressivelly anti-phase.

So.. any ideas besides re-recording everything or TC/exp each individual track?



Would you recommend me any other TC/EXP plug?

I don't think the junior mastering Waves are adding so much phase problems because everything sounded fine before the audiosuite processing.



BTW.. I was increasing speed from (varies from 103 to 109) to +2.5%.

Maybe are the random speed bumps/breaks that "damage " the phase?



Thanks in advance

Nice week
