Default Re: Assuring your drum mics are in phase?

What do you mean by phase align them as opposed to ensuring they are in phase? Sorry if thats a dumb question.....but you never know if you don't ask.

Also, how do you hear the phase relationship with drums? Any tricks? I find it very easy getting guitar mics in phase etc, but the envelope of a drum hit is too short for me to hear any comb filtering etc. Is it just a volume thing? Bass response?
