01Overview

Doubler is an effects plugin from Waves built around vocal doubling. Each of its four voices has its own delay of up to 100 ms, with feedback, plus pitch modulation with adjustable depth and rate. Voices can be panned across the stereo field and detuned by up to ±100 cents, with a one-octave-down option. Output shelf filtering and over 50 artist and factory presets round out the toolset.

03In depth

Layered voices and delay control

Doubler reinforces doubling with another layer of doubling. Each of the four voices runs through the same set of controls, so you can build a stacked, thickened sound from one plugin instead of duplicating tracks.

Delay time goes up to 100 ms per voice, and feedback adds repeats to the delay. Pitch modulation with depth and rate gives each voice a moving, chorus-like character, while detune of ±100 cents and the one-octave-down switch cover subtler and more dramatic pitch offsets.

Stereo placement and output filtering

Each voice can be panned into the stereo field, which helps spread a mono vocal or instrument across the mix. Gain and pan can be adjusted by dragging in the graphic display, making it quick to shape the balance between voices.

Output filtering provides high- and low-frequency shelf responses so you can tone the processed signal before it reaches the mix.
