Doubletrack User Guide

Controls

Mode

Chooses one of four different all-pass filter banks that shift the phase response of the signal, creating a subtle difference in the transients and timing of the sound.

Recommended default: 4

Timing

Applies a constant delay to the new track. Set low to maintain tight timing, or higher to give the recording a "looser" feel.

Recommended default: 10ms

Pitch

Applies a constantly varying pitch shift to the track.

Recommended default: 3 cent

Phase Invert

Inverts the phase of the resulting signal, further breaking up the stereo correlation and enhancing the stereo width.

Recommended default: On

 

Usage Tips

  • For best results, we recommend applying the effect on the DI track / clean guitar recording - before any amp simulation or distortion effects.
  • For best results, generate one "doubled" track, pan the original track hard left and the doubled track hard right.
  • A third track can be added and placed in the center of the mix. In this case, we recommend using a different Mode for the center track, as well as changing up the delay time and disabling phase inversion.
  • While you can experiment with quad-track generation, the plugin sees diminishing results when doing so, as phasing and chorusing artifacts start to become more pronounced with more than 2 tracks of the effect in use.
