Interesting. I was concerned about the phase issues and destroying the lowend when processing a bass in parallel.I have two subs. I sometimes use linear phase - mostly when I'm taking care of low end and minimal phase produces significant peak overshoots or changes the timbre of something drastically, or when I'm processing something in parallel.
So it can fix the issues of not properly setup multimic applications.i.e. phase can screw up mic correlation in multitrack drum recordings. it can also make it better because you usually have some phase distortion going on anyway because mics are usually not the same distance.
I don't completely understand. Phase distortion is not phase shifting right? So the phase gets bent resulting in less phase cancelation?so it's really a "let's try" sort of thing. for making multi-mic guitars fat I use this

it's the opposite of linear phase EQ, this doesn't change any frequency but introduces only phase distortion.
This is the point at which I'd rather buy a plugin.In case you don't happen to have a linear phase EQ, you can create your own, using any of your normal plugins. Simply render the results. Then reverse the audio so that it plays backwards, then render the identical EQ settings again and reverse the audio back to normal. Voilá, you've just created a linear phase EQ.
Only thing to note is that of course your EQ gain settings will be doubled. So if you want to do -3dB of cut or +3dB of boost then you need to halve that amount in your plugin as it gets rendered twice. Other than that, you can create your own with ease. Granted it's not real-time and slightly cumbersome but it's none-the-less an interesting process.
Thankfully there is Ozone 11.
