Waves ADT: finally I don't have to struggle anymore with shitty musicians....

Really like this video, ends with some nice gtr examples. It will be nice to have this all in one plug, I've had to put 2 or 3 together for similar uses. I think I'd use just as much as a mono->stereo plug to stop having to multi-track everything and can focus on just a single performance. Of course, this would knock some time off vox too :lol:
 
Already using this freeby a lot, mainly for vocals :
http://www.vacuumsound.de/plugins.html

It's not as good as recording real doubles, but it's pretty close and it can save your ass.

Curious to try the Waves one.

EDIT : just watched the in depth tutorial video, sounds very promising and way more tweakable than the free plugin I mentioned.
 
Isn't this just like track delay? Or is there more to it than that?

I watched the 2 videos and did not hear any samples.

Edit* I found the other video. Still seems like with track delay you could emulate this to some extent.
 
Looking forward to hearing what you guys think about Waves Reel ADT.
I'm really liking it on vocals, keys and clean guitar.

I really dig we took it to another level and provided the additional ADT2V component
which offers something beyond the existing process at Abbey Road.



All the best,

Tim at Waves

Honestly IMO nothing beats well double/quad tracked heavy guitars.
I would definitely go for Reel ADT over copying/offsetting tracks etc if a project calls for it
(or the musician's can't nail it as mentioned above)

I can personally see using it as an effect though on distorted guitars. Let me know what you guys think.


All the best,

ADT is not like double tracking in the traditional sense and should not be used to try to emulate it.

It's more like a modulated delay, so you have tonal and time discrepancies together to give the effect of a wider vocal etc...
 
Just bought SoundToys micro shift…pretty happy with that for subtle widening, not sure if I'm in the market for this. Keen to hear people's results with it though!

Actually with track delay you won't get this effect, you need even a bit of pitch variations (randomly) to get a real natural doubling effect.
Well I mean if you need to double track a guitar part or a vocal line without recording it, this is the way to go.... or at least I hope hahahahah
 
Wow it really is convincing as an effect !

What about mono compatibility ? If it is in essence a combination of known techniques, it must cancel itself out ?
