FREQUENCY: Low Shelf Cutoff 16Hz to 1600Hz. Default: 156Hz.

Hi Shelf 1000Hz to 21000Hz Default: 5990Hz.

Master controls include:

ALIGN DIRECT: On/Off. Default: Off.

When set to On, this control delays the direct signal in order to align it to the Voices’ inherent latency. With the Align On, you can reach a relative delay of 0ms between the direct signal and the Voices. The Voices’ inherent latency depends on the range: at 80Hz, the Voices’ inherent latency will be 7ms and at 20Hz, it will be 24ms. When the Align direct is Off, the plug-in will not add delay to the direct so it will be aligned with the Track’s original time, and the minimum relative delay between the Voices and the direct is limited to the Voices’ inherent delay.

HI PASS FEEDBACK: 16Hz to 12000Hz. Default: 16Hz.

Sets the Feedback’s Hi Pass filter cutoff frequency.

RANGE: 80Hz/20Hz Default: 20Hz.

Detuning lower frequencies requires higher inherent latency for the Voices. The Range control specifies the lowest frequency that can be detuned with no artifacts, and at the same time sets the lowest inherent latency for the voices. Lower Range means higher latency.

If low latency is not a concern it is safer to work with the wider Range, down to 20Hz (latency is 24ms). When low latency is a concern, and the input signal consists of frequencies above 80Hz (such as guitars and lead vocals), set the Range to 80Hz, and the inherent latency will likewise be smaller. 20Hz Range should be used for Doubling bass instruments and will perform more purely on complex full range signals such as mixed sources.

MODULATION RESET.

Sometimes interesting sounds can be achieved by synchronized modulations, but when you have to set the rate and depth individually, they will definitely go out of sync. Click the Mod Reset to make them start together in perfect sync.

This control is also automateable and can be used to reset the modulators to start at the exact position in selected cues of your session so they sound the same each time.

Doubler specifications

Waves Doubler is a highly acclaimed audio processing tool designed for musicians, producers, and sound engineers seeking to enhance their mixes with depth and dimensionality. By utilizing advanced algorithms, Waves Doubler creates rich, immersive sounds that can transform ordinary recordings into captivating audio experiences.

One of the primary features of Waves Doubler is its ability to generate vocal or instrumental doubles. This feature emulates the effect of multiple takes, adding a layer of realism and fullness to the sound. Users can adjust the pitch and timing variations to achieve a natural or more pronounced doubling effect, ideal for creating harmonies or enriching the overall sound palette.

In addition to vocal doubling, Waves Doubler provides sophisticated stereo imaging capabilities. With specialized controls for panning and width, users can position sounds across the stereo field, enhancing the spatial characteristics of their mixes. This feature is essential for creating a wider soundstage, allowing each instrument or vocal track to sit comfortably within the mix.

Waves Doubler also incorporates state-of-the-art pitch modulation and delay technology. The pitch modulation allows users to detune the doubled sounds slightly, creating a chorus effect that can add vibrancy and depth. The built-in delay settings enable precise control over the timing between the original and doubled sounds, which is crucial for achieving the desired effect without losing the cohesion of the mix.

The interface is user-friendly, featuring intuitive controls that allow for quick adjustments without overwhelming the user. This design ensures that both novice and experienced producers can navigate the tool effortlessly, making it easy to craft the perfect sound.

Waves Doubler is compatible with various digital audio workstations (DAWs), providing flexibility for integration into different music production environments. Its lightweight nature means it won’t strain system resources, allowing users to run multiple instances without a hitch.

In summary, Waves Doubler stands out with its robust doubling capabilities, advanced stereo imaging tools, and user-friendly interface. It empowers users to create lush, dynamic audio landscapes with ease, ensuring that every mix achieves a polished and professional sound. Whether for vocals, instruments, or entire mixes, Waves Doubler is an essential tool for anyone serious about sound enhancement.
