hello everyone,

let's say you 2-miked an instrument and recorded it as a stereo file
into the DAW. then when you listened back, you thought it sounded
out of phase.

would it make sense to simply de-couple the stereo file in a wave
editor and then nudge one of the left or right tracks a few samples
to get it in phase?

absolutely.

I don't think so. If you want to de-couple tracks enough to make a
difference, you need to nudge them many milliseconds. You want them to be
far enough apart so that they sound different from each other, but not far
enough to create an audible echo.
