However, with the mic, it goes from electric energy in the amp to acoustic energy in the air then back to electric energy at the microphone before finally becoming 1's and 0's at the interface.
i've heard people say to do this also, but i have NEVER had a phase issue this way. maybe i've just lucked out.
