Hi Martin, This is a common problem when recording D.I. along with mic signals. You can certainly try to delay the D.I. track by roughly one millisecond per foot that the mic is away from the cabinet. There are tools like Auto Align from Sound radix that does the alignment for you but I have yet to use it independently. It certainly works well but I have to figure out how to get VoiceOver to play nice. Slau
