Waves Doubler

Waves Doubler - Effects Plugin | The Ultimate Thickening Tool for Vocals & Instruments

Waves Doubler is a professional vocal doubling effect and harmony processing plugin that combines precise Delay and Pitch Modulation techniques to add unparalleled thickness and width to your audio. Whether you're processing lead vocals, harmonies, various polyphonic instruments, or even entire mixes, Doubler delivers exceptional sound enhancement. It's not just a simple duplication tool; it's a powerful sound-shaping weapon that makes your productions sound bigger, fuller, and more spacious.

The core of this plugin lies in its unique dual-doubling architecture, which allows you to stack another layer on top of an existing doubled layer, creating incredibly rich and natural sonic textures. With its built-in 4 independent Voices, a delay range of up to 100 milliseconds, and flexible modulation controls, Waves Doubler has become a classic solution in studios worldwide for sound thickening and stereo widening. From adding weight to thin vocals and widening mono instruments into a broad stereo image, to adding beautiful layers to background harmonies or enhancing the details of an acoustic guitar performance, Doubler handles it all with ease and can even take you into unprecedented realms of sound design.

Core Advantages & Applications

Create Bigger, Wider, and Fuller Sounds
Doubling is a key technique for making sounds feel larger, wider, and more engaging. Doubler excels not only on vocals and various instruments but can also be applied to buses or the master output to effectively increase the spaciousness of the entire mix and optimize stereo imaging. Whether you need to make a lead vocal stand out in the mix or want a synth patch to fill the entire soundstage, Doubler is your go-to choice.

Creative Possibilities with Dual Effect Stacking
You can use direct delay settings to create smooth and spacious doubling effects. To add more dynamics and variation, simply introduce Modulation and Pitch Shifting. Furthermore, you can push parameters like Feedback, Pitch Shifting, filters, and Panning to their limits to create wild special effects and unique sound designs, such as simulating a fantastical "Bell Tree" effect.

Precise Detail Control & Practical Features
Waves Doubler is full of thoughtful design details. Its output Shelving Filters offer up to +12 dB of gain and a deep -24 dB of attenuation, allowing you to precisely sculpt the final tone. Additionally, all modulation parameters can be reset with a single click via Automation, significantly boosting workflow efficiency. You can even filter the feedback path independently for deeper sound customization.
