Update: I am currently looking into "All-Pass" filters to correct (counter) the phase-shift that occurs in the pass-band. If anybody has any tips, tricks or informative resources are, their more than welcome! Thanks, Sean. p.s. Excuse my mixing up of dutch and english, "fase" in the last email was supposed to be "phase". Sorry.
