Dubler - I finally took the plunge with the Black Friday sale, and just hooked it up and tested it out flawlessly with my existing mic and Bitwig... and my whole musical world has changed in an instant. I'm impressed by the simplicity and directness of the app and VST, but more than this, I'm blown away by the way this just dissolves my barriers to making music. I've always had great vocal sense and pitch, but have struggled to learn keyboard. Now, as Bowie put it, Everything Has Changed. Thank you Dubler! For everyone else... consider this a deep recommendation. ^_^

[@motivehouse]

This comment has just made me buy it

[@kraenk12]

Same here… also on Bitwig. Thanks

Welcome to the world of music software

I was always a bit skeptical but I've just bought it in the sale and for me its a complete game changer. I often think up beats but my mic was a bit crap so I ordered the mic to go with it. SO good!

[@steveleeatfullmeasure]

Excellent video introduction! I'm fully primed for when the mic arrives.

[@willyp5855]

I bought Dubler 1 and I wasn't that impressed and talked some trash about it, but I've just decided to upgrade yesterday, and Dubler 2 works way better. It now does what I wanted Dubler 1 to do. It's too bad that I missed the 40% off on Black Friday, but that's okay. I still have a bit of a latency issue, but I believe that I'll be able to get it sorted out. I can still get it to perform well enough that I can manually fix any mistakes in the piano roll. This will definitely help artists create anything from ideas to full songs. I will now recommend this software. I own the mic, and haven't tried another mic yet, so I can't say how well other mics work. I also want to say that anytime that I've posted an angry comment, their PR team reached out to help, so I can tell that this company cares about customers. I give their customer service 10/10.

How much did it cost on Black Friday?

[@nevertellmethaoddz8581]

@@timb8970 ended up paying about $265 for the Studio kit (includes microphone). It's awesome but I can't use it as much as I'd like because you really have to sing full range into the mic to get an accurate reading and I live in an apartment so it's mad awkward. It's a great tool though.

[@randomancy]

Si I've seen ads for a while, and I'm interested because I feel more natural making a guitar solo with my mouth. Growing interest. Can I just say, it is such a relief that you are also really good at beatboxing and make the software seem very accessible. Thank you for your skill and information.

Just bought Dubler 2 Studio and waiting for it to be delivered. As a first vid, not in my native language (French) I found it to be very clear and entertaining. And I will obviously need to hear it again, a couple of time and more, because lots of information here for sure. The guy is a great trainer. The challenge seems big for a totally novice in both this revolutionary application and Ableton DAW, but I am very confident. Tip for the Vochlea team: more vids for beginners like me please, simple vids on how to create a simple arrangement! There are several on KZbin, granted, but most are from/for experienced people - people like me need the 101 step by step approach, like in this video. So, yes, well done, thanks guys!

[@4everfreethinker]

Nothing is more frustrating for me than going in search of a tutorial, finding one, and then realize that it doesn't give enough details for someone who is brand new to learn how to use the product. Important steps are always missed as though content creators only care about those with some experience and not those who have none and need for every step to be shown and explained. In Dubler 2, I used the key tracking for the melody that I am creating, then like him, I moved over to Ableton, picked up my mic and started to hum my melody and of course, nothing happens! Why? Because you don't just click over to Ableton and make sounds into your mic and boom, you get an instrumental melody, like shown in this video. Obviously, there are settings or some kind of steps to be taken before what you're humming is transposed into the instrument of your choice. I mean really, at the moment, I'm only trying to do what is shown in all of the advertisements for Dubler 2 --- People humming and then an instrument following those sounds is created. Why doesn't this video show every step needed to hum your melody into Ableton and create an instrumental melody from it!!! What good is it to someone who has never worked with this software, if that vital information is left out?

[@VochleaMusic]

Hi. Very sorry this video didn't have what you were looking for. The set up steps can change depending on what software you are using and we unfortunately can't account for every DAW that is out there in one video. In this video we focus solely on what Dubler can do, however we do have a separate guide for everything you need to get going in Ableton.

[@sethjackson2010]

I bought this because I suck at not being sucked into marketing. Don't even have it in yet but I am so excited for this.

[@Catalonia]

Is there a way to voice to beat AND bass guitar simultaneously? Also is there something close to a bass guitar sound? I have a few bass G emulators so maybe that could stack together. Curious to try this thing out maybe.

[@ScotPeacock]

Hi there, is it possible to sing into Dubler with a completely chromatic pitch wheel, ie no actual key, and then have a key suggested once I've finished singing? Thing is, I usually don't know what key I want until I've come up with a melody. Thanks.

[@VochleaMusic]

Hi Scot! You can definitely set Dubler 2 to Chromatic mode when starting out with an idea and then there are a couple of ways that the software will suggest an appropriate key. The first is using our Auto-Key Detect feature that you can find out about more here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oqOyn6N-qJKChs0si=aY4FjuxhMhlX-_fV The second way is using keys suggested by Dubler's MIDI Capture companion plugin, which we explain in more detail in the 4th minute of this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rZTYdZh8l7mDj9Esi=VS900lZQqO2m19fq

[@aemythjensen]

How did you get the latency so low? My latency is almost a second. I'm using an EV ND357A mic with a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2, and with Focusrite USB ASIO. The midi capture vst is hosted in Ableton live suite with only one instrument, Modo Bass, which only has 0.068 ms latency, which doesn't justify the long latency I'm experiencing

[@aemwhozz]

So if I've purchased the studio kit, but I'm wondering what would be the best choice when it comes to latency. Is the dubler usb conected to my Windows with ASIO4ALL better than using a dynamic mic connected to the audio interface? Because I have both...

[@paulgnsn554]

This looks amazing. As someone who used to use the old Sonar Cakewalk and is frankly baffled by the new Bandlab version, is it pretty simple to add virtual instruments to, and does it have a piano roll for midi input? Thanks!

[@danielmcnamara_]

Is there a way to make Dubler2 autoload a profile when you open it?

[@sophiarayne]

Any idea if we can use GarageBand with this tool?

[@firefly7980]

Are you able to do key and tempo changes within one song?

[@KenWhitson777]

Could this be used live for a lead sound in a trio? Guitar/bass/drums? Right now, I’m doing a lot of harmonica solos to keep the rhythm fuller. If it can track my vocal lead with minimal latency, I’ll get it.

[@VochleaMusic]

Dubler 2 works great with lead sounds! There's a good example toward the end of our latest video in which we use Dubler 2 to produce a Rock song with MIDI Acoustic Drums, Bass and Guitar sounds: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oJO4cp-vpL1qmrM

Just snagged this and enjoying. Is there a way to hear back the our own sounds made to train the triggers? I made a kit I love, but forgot some of the sounds I made. Not a big deal to redo some and record a separate reference track, but thought would be good just to click something and hear the trigger sound. Unless I’ve just missed that function. Cheers.

Sometimes the tone of my natural 808 when beatboxing triggers random sounds. Would be great to turn off everything that's not explicitly a trigger

[@VochleaMusic]

Hi! You can click the red button next to the "Pitch" text in the Play Tab to turn off the Pitch section.

[@officialb-villainous1311]

I recently got this and I'm trying to program the triggers. When I go to beatbox the noise I make for a bass drum keeps getting picked up as a high hat sometimes and it's throwing me off. Did I miss something while programming the drum triggers?

[@VochleaMusic]

We're sorry to hear you're having some issues with the Triggers feature! This video provides some great tips for getting better results (during the section that starts at minute 7): kzbin.info/www/bejne/pWmuYayLlqufmcU Another tip is lowering the Input Sensitivity knob in the Triggers section if you find that sounds are overlapping. This is especially crucial if you're not working with headphones and Dubler may be picking up audio from your speakers. Thirdly, lowering latency is crucial. Make sure that your buffer size in your DAW’s audio preferences is set to 128 or lower. If you're still having issue be sure to let us know and we can look into the issue further or even arrange a video call to help get you up and running!

Just tried the dubler 2. How can I reduce latency? It looks like when I sing something the connected vst plays it a few miliseconds later. Thats very annoying. Anyone tips?

Hi! Have you tried reducing your DAW's buffer size? We recommend a buffer size of 128 or less while using Dubler 2. Some DAW's like Ableton and Logic Pro also have low latency modes that reduce latency even further. If that still doesn't work be sure to get in touch with our support team at [e-mail] and they can look into the issue further!

[@steveleeatfullmeasure]

Maybe can hook it up as midi input to musescore?

[@oriomenoni7651]

Does the key restriction mean that I can't make jazz improvisations with chromatic passages?

[@VochleaMusic]

Dubler can be set to chromatic to include all notes, however working in a chromatic scale can often result in a lot of unwanted ghost notes. When all notes are available it's very common to accidentally sing slightly flat or sharp, especially in quick runs. Key restrictions help us avoid this, but by all means you can experiment with any notes you like!

Any recommendations for a decent entry level sound card and/or audio interface for clearing up latency and choppy sound issues?

[@VochleaMusic]

Anyone know if it can convert whistled notes into midi?

[@VochleaMusic]

Yes you can also whistle with Dubler! There are a couple tips to bear in mind. The most important one is to whistle over the top of the mic, as to avoid blowing air directly into the head of the mic as this will interfere with the pitch detection. As whistling is often higher pitched you'll likely also want to lower the output octave in the app. As a final tip I would also recommend using Dubler with pitch bend on, that way you can translate all the bend information and vibrato like people often do with whistling.

It’s not fair that I have to pay $400 total if I want to upgrade now because I invested in it earlier on and now new users only have to pay $320 for everything. Why are the older users being charged extra instead of having a free upgrade?

[@brandonjdean]

its 78$ for existing users.

I would like to test trial of Dubler 2 to be sure the investment is worth it!

[@VochleaMusic]

Hi - Thanks for your message. There isn't currently a trial for the software. However there is a 30 day return window for the studio kit and a 14 day window for the software only version, so if you do purchase and decide it's not for you, you can return it for a full refund.

[@j.v.f.8736]

@@VochleaMusic How would I return the software version, in such case? Usually the software is downloaded and after installing it, a license is applied.

[@VochleaMusic]

@@j.v.f.8736 Hi - all returns are processed through the orders section of your Vochlea account on our website - www.vochlea.com/account/orders

The update should have been free for the previous dubler owners

[@VochleaMusic]

The grace period for free upgrades was up until June 20th, which was 3 months prior to release. Any users who have purchased before this are offered a heavily discounted upgrade price. As with other music making software such as Ableton for example, upgrades to the next version (e.g. version 1 to version 2) are offered as a paid upgrade as this allows us to develop the app and add new features. Dubler 1 has been on the market for over 2 years and we have released 3 major free updates to improve the technology in the app from release. The team have been working hard on developing Dubler 2 over the last year and we hope it offers some new features you can enjoy. If you do decide to stick with Dubler 1 we'll continue to offer support.

@@VochleaMusic where I can I find the update for the Dublar 1

[@KennyLauderdale]

you didn't show how to connect doubler to a vst. That was skipped.

[@VochleaMusic]

Hi! With the Dubler software open all you have to do is record arm the track with your vst loaded in your DAW and Dubler will send MIDI to that track, just like a USB MIDI keyboard for example! For more detailed DAW setup tutorials you can check our Learn page here: vochlea.com/tutorials/dubler2

Vochlea Music Mate - doesn't work at all for this experienced musician with a powerful, audio only computer. I'd sure appreciate some help. . After 'training' it immediately forgets the training. Using, unique, 'sharp' sound for bass drum, Dubler 2 plays it back fine. I record it into ableton and it plays back a cymbal and tom out of sync. . After training and putting Ableton 11 Suite into record mode, Dubler 2 usually closes, halting all progress. . With super low latency and a high-quality (very) dynamic mic there is terrible latency - and Dubler is the only device of over 50 I use regularly with any latency. Any way we can do a Zoom call? This would be a dream come true - IF it worked. Perhaps it can't work with Dell machines?

It seem 7th "jazz" chords should be a preset :)

[@wiiznokes2237]

That is a great software, too bad that I can't afford it

[@endoffate5475]

Can you get real sounding bass and drums?

[@VochleaMusic]

Hi! Dubler 2 works as a MIDI controller that sends MIDI to any DAW you are working with. You can use it to launch any sounds, synths or samples you have loaded up in your session🎤

[@johniebeats]

Apple is acquiring doubler in logic 11😂❤🎉 lmao

[@prcption8636]

what a missed opportunity, you're telling me I have to sing in key? the whole point of voice to MIDI is to be able to sing whatever comes to mind and then figure it out later. WOW

[@VochleaMusic]

Hi, you can put Dubler in chromatic mode, however in order to get clean MIDI out you'd need an almost inhumanely pitch perfect voice as we track your singing in real time. Every wobble away from your intended note would result in an extra notes and so unless you were an incredibly strong singer it would quickly get very messy! But we have a number of features that allow you to quickly find the best key, allowing you to focus just on your idea and not whether you're singing is pitch perfect. We have a sing in notes feature on the Key Tab which allows you to sing anything you like (no restrictions) and it will then suggest a number of scales that closest match your melody You can find out more on our separate video on Key Restrictions

[@prcption8636]

@@VochleaMusic Thanks for the response, I’m using the software with a condenser mic but the notes like to bounce all over the place, would using a dynamic microphone yield better results?

[@VochleaMusic]

@@prcption8636 Hi, yes dynamic mics are preferable for our use case as they are more suited to pick up focused signal sound, and consequently pick up less background sound. We’re interested in just the detectable triggers and pitch sounds from your voice so a dynamic mic helps eliminate any other sounds that might interfere with detection. Condensers on the other hand pick up a lot of more in depth sounds, and are very sensitive compared to dynamics. This is great for recording vocals in lots of detail, but all the unwanted background sounds condensers pick up makes detection in our app slightly more difficult. That’s not to say you can’t have a good experience with a condenser, just the dynamic mic will give more reliable and accurate results. Input style also plays a big role in note accuracy but if you want some other tips and tricks for using Dubler feel free to email us at [e-mail] and we can also setup a video chat!

[@Iirandomizexx]

Literally bought it a few months back for the updated version to be released a few months later and now I have to pay extra to use the better version. Whilst simultaneously making the microphone basically redundant. Cheers for that guys. Good product but this is hardly fair on people who've already paid a lot.

[@h-cane]

Exactly. The ones who literally invested in the actual Dubler Mic should have got this update for $25 at the most.

[@VochleaMusic]

There is no obligation to upgrade, and we’ll continue to support Dubler 1! Dubler 1 has been on the market for 2.5 yrs, and like all companies, we’ll release new products periodically. Like everyone, you’re welcome to try the 7-day trial, and if you do decide you’d like to upgrade, you can get it for $78 which is at a 70% discount.

@@VochleaMusic Well, that's not exactly true. I live in Germany and waited quite a long time, before I was finally able to purchase Dubler 1 in June this year.

[@klemenzupancic1342]

U guys don’t understand that a company has to invest funds to evolve the software, u just want everything for free lol. Every audio company I know and use has paid upgrades, also I don’t know how you paid alot as u said since Dubler (in my opinion) is cheap af! I also bought Dubler 1 and will be happy to support and buy the upgrade, the software looks alot smoother!
