If you "un-delay" the Mimiq double tracked emulation signal a few miliseconds, you'll get a more realistic/balanced double track effect. Mimiq's algorythm adds random pitch and delay changes to a copy of the original signal (higher "tighness" values add longer ms delays and wider pitch differences), but it will never add a negative delay (as that is "scientifically" impossible). So the idea is that you "record" that processed signal into a track and then zoom in untill you can compare peaks against the original signal side by side and move the audio clip back a few ms manually until they are aligned somehow (some peaks will happen before the original, and some will be after, that's the sweet spot!). This way you won't get the typical "unbalanced" volume effect that results from our ears perceiving the "sooner" signal (original DI) louder. When you do this, the double track effect is undistinguishable from a real double tracked recording. You can't do this live, but it can easily be done when recording with this quick post-processing trick! Try it out and let me know what you think! 😉 I'm not a big fan of polarity switching, as it can cause phase and/or mono compatibility issues. I also recommend to repeat this process 1 track at a time with the same settings. You will always get a totally different resulting double tracked signal from the same original track, as the MIMIQ pedal's algorythm is constantly applying random changes. That's why it works so great when used live!

I fell for it for so long too. As an amateur everything… (musician / audio engineer / everything like everyone else these days) … it was ridiculously grueling. Because trying to get an engle sound on zero money will basically just ruin your soul. Lol. Everything is pretty different now… we can afford at least some of the best stuff even pros use these days so better sounds can be achieved easier at home now. But chasing tones like Danny Carey’s drums from Lateralus and guitar tones from super expensive studios and meshuggah and all that… yea. Not so easy in garageband in your parents basement on like, the worlds cheapest shit. Anyway, moral of the story is now when I listen back to my old recordings… literally the only music that still stands was the stuff I recorded that was just all me, and using whatever tone was quickly inspiring and worked. Most of anything i worked on back then in which I tried super hard to get super modern “great” amp sounds and such all sound like a kid exploring shit he doesn’t know… and not so musically compelling. The songs I thought were so cool that it didn’t matter much how i recorded it, but rather needed to get down the flood of ideas I had… those are some of the only ones that still stand. The song is just too cool to remotely care i didn’t shave off the top end sizzle-slush in the distortion. It literally doesn’t matter in so many cases. And honestly some of the absolute best tones i got, were just totally me and almost haphazardly. I would obviously try to record pretty well no matter what but yea. I really really recommend people just being themselves. Don’t chase anything too much. Your creative self will get lost. It really will. There’s nothing wrong with making sure you have a great sound but do it in chunks or something. Work with others who will help. Get feedback. And stick to it for a while and only change shit if you actually hear a change or it genuinely sounds bad. Let others bother with the super microscopic stuff.

One of the oldest tricks they used to do stereo reissue of mono records back in the day was to just filter the LH & RH channels differently, and usually complimentary. Like scooping the mids in one channel a bit and boosting them in the other. Or if you have a graphic EQ, boost one band and then cut the next, doing the opposite on the bands on the other channel. That kind of forms a comb filter and you get a pretty wide effect without even any time domain stuff.

Well, you just made my fucking day. Do you know how long I have been trying to do this?! Years. Goddamn years. Over 15 fucking years. And now you just saved me hours.

My only issue with that is I prefer the old school sound where both guitars don't play exactly the same way, ala 90's Slayer where you clearly hear it's not the same guitarist on each side. Plus you can add depth to your song with harmonizing or playing a different version of the chord etc. Not the actual standard, but I hate the modern sound.

Thanks for the kind words!

While I like the idea, I think recording doubles is essential for a good perfomance. I think this is a technique that works well for emergencies, but the stereo image on a real double track is just better and more natural.

The Mimiq is great. I use mine as a signal splitter going into the front of a Victory Super Kraken and a Mesa Badlander in a stereo setup. I set dubs to 1 because in stereo you don't need to fake it. Tightness is set around the middle somewhere. One amp gets the dry signal and the other gets the Mimiq'd signal. If you turn down the dry volume so you only hear the Mimiq'd amp, you can hear what the effect is doing. It feels like it's almost adding a couple milliseconds delay. It doesn't hinder your playing, but you can very subtly feel it. Of course, the whole point is to have dry and wet both up and running into two separate amps. It sounds colossal. And it's not just great for metal sounds. It adds a bit of width to a clean sound before it even gets to reverbs and delays.

Great to see you taking this further. I don't mind recording doubles, but quads not so much, especially on fast picky riffs! I would certainly appreciate a time/effort saver like this! 😎

I tracked with the Mimic pedal once that was going into 2 different Orange amps/cabs. I remember we kept the tightness at zero because we couldnt find a setting that worked as we wanted. However, the 2 amp setups already did enough. This was on leads though. We double tracked the rhythms.

I use a Mimiq live and have recorded demos with it. You can definitely hear the phasing and lose some bottom end. I’ll try a couple of these ideas and see if it makes a difference live!

Hey, this gave me some ideas, thanks! So I did an experiment and managed to make really convincing stereo guitar tracks from a mono DI totally in the box with amp sims with no audible phasing or artifacts. Here’s how: 1: Flip phase on mono DI. 2. Drop the pitch 2 semitones (in Ableton I used the “Complex Pro” algorithm, but I think most DAWs use the same algorithm) 3. Resample or bounce your phase flipped, pitch-shifted DI. 4. Raise the pitch back up 2 semitones. 5. Resample or bounce it. 6. Add amp sim, flip phase again and pan. I even used the exact same preset and cabinet settings on the amp sim on both the left and right tracks and it still worked, I am guessing because the re-pitching algorithm somehow adds enough variations that it eliminates audible phase issues. I also tried putting the LFO tool on Voxengo’s free Sound Delay plugin to randomly sweep the delay settings on the new DI by between 0 and around 40 samples, and it also works but is very subtle. I'd like to hear if anyone else can get similar results.

AMAAAAAZING VIDEO. You rock man, thanks!

I love that pedal! I've never stopped using it since I got it! It's fantastic! I run the output from the MIMIQ into a MOOER CAB X2. Also, you should try putting two different OD's, and EQ's through the MIMIQ. Follow that with different speakers for each track.

Keeley also makes the 30ms pedal which is an automatic double tracker and could be used to do the same and also comes with standard chorus and reverb for about $80 more. It's only got one output jack, but I think it can work in stereo and will split the wet and dry signals with a splitter cable

Awesome video, thank you for sharing this idea! I went to the store today after watching this and checked out the Keeley Electronics 30MS Double Tracker pedal (only thing close they had).

Very cool! To add-revoice apt works pretty good, if you have it. My favorite thing to do is set up loop points and play the part till I’ve nailed it at least 2x, and do the protools magic from there. I’ll have to check out the polarity thing. 👍

This is quite amazing! John Browne (as the only guitar player in Monuments) uses the Mimiq model in the Helix for quad tracked guitars live. Rabea Massad also used the Mimiq for his Toska project, but since got rid of it, because he thought it sounded phasey. I'm also the only guitarist in my band and I'd say I have a pretty good stereo setup going in my modeller (Quad Cortex, always running two different amps and cabs). It seems to be more than just a sample delay. So... should I try the Mimiq? How big is the difference between different rigs with and without the pedal? I'd love to see that. Also I think I might update all my patches to make use of the polarity trick. These videos are gold, especially for one guitarist live bands, danke!

Great video! I was thinking on gettin a TC Mimiq doubler, or a Boss Metalizer. In the meantime, i've achieved a good double tracking sound using a Line6 POD HD Desktop, very good results, but the thing is i depend on using the parallel preamp modeler and the cab sims for now, maybe if i use 2 separate IR loader it will get a little bit better. I think it's possible use only the effects and getting good results, i'm using a Pitch vibrato in one of the amps. On the past, I've done this with the POD X3 too, it's possible, but takes you on a path to frustration for various reasons.

Amazing result! Excellent if you have only one track to work with. It does beg the question whether or not it is faster than just playing it twice, what with all the experimentation. Gtreat Vid!

I do this when playing live (I’m the only guitar player in the band). Dual amp setup, stereo out with Helix LT and at the beginning of one side I use the Double Take (which is pretty much the same as Mimiq). I haven’t tried the phase switch tho, that can be fun. Thx and cheers! 🍻

Man, the final result is very convincing!

Amazing vidéo ! Thanks !

I absolutely love this approach, but one thing I've wanted is to do a similar thing with vocals, and I learned a trick doing it with vocals that I was able to back-port to guitar with similarly good effects. With vocals you don't have a guitar amp and cab/IR, but what I found is you can also do the vocal doubling trick using a VERY short reverb IR, and doing the phase flip trick before and after the IR. And then all the normal slight EQ/compression moves to create space between the original and duplicate track. And you can also use the IR reverb trick with one of the guitar tracks too, you just have to make sure the reverb IR you use is VERY VERY short.

Oh man, this might be a game changer! Thanks for all you do to share this awesome information!

I actually tried recording one side of the mimi (mono) into my daw, and running the other output (stereo) into another amp pedal ( Horizon Devices Apex Preamp) and recording that on another track to boost the volume. It sounded huge!

Fantastic! I get something similar with Dimension Expander by Xfer Recrods, haas effect and a little M/S eqing (Aplly DX and use a HPF on the side , then use haas to recreate the feeil of double track, especially in the low end area) I use this approach specially to practice with headphones

Very cool ! I'm very curious about trying this pedal since I heard about it. What about mimiq with two differents amps and two differents speaker but whithout polarity trick, for a live situation ?

Sounds even wider than the actual doubling guitars omg. Good stuff!

i´ve been using the mimiq direct to my interface, running the same amp in both channels BUT with different settings and different but close enough IRs. I´ve been doing that in the past 3 months and it is a great way to streamline pre production and composing new stuff. the final product is really close to the final product, but half the workload.

Not sure if it really sounded quad tracked but you couldn't help but grin uncontrollably when playing through either rig lol

I have a similar approach to faking double tracks, except i use a shallow water set on 100% wet with no gate and extremely subtle modulation. I reamp the signal with only that pedal going through whatever amp and it gets me where i need to be.

I use the Eventide Deco to split my signal in two with a reversed phase on one side and then I go into the Mimiq. That way, I can record or play live with two different preamp (Friedman pedal et Carvin VLD1) into a stereo power amp and 2 different cabs with greenback and JBL, and different mics (57 and 421). Sometimes I can ear phase shifting with the Mimiq but it does a good job. Even better with a very small pitch shift using the H9 at the input (up and down).

Love this pedal!

Interestingly enough yesterday I tried some stuff with the Mimiq and a Digitech HM2 (intelligent harmonizer). Basically you can plug your guitar into an HM2 and get harmonized guitars in stereo, you can put a Mimiq after that to slightly offset the original guitar and the harmonized one. It does an ok job, specially if you're in a live situation and don't have a second guitar player.

It usually takes days to do a proper rhythm guitar session, to play all the doubles perfectly. Moving a mic and twisting some knobs takes me three minutes.

This pedals been out for yonks. I was going to get one years ago. I generally use 2 different guitars for tacking, One thing extra you could do is used a chorus on one but set at a level you don’t really hear. That really changes up the waveform for extra width. 💪🏻🤘🏻

What I do to do this is have 4 stems, 2 are high pass filtered and inverted/flipped opposite to the 2 un-high pass filtered stems. I then on all 4 of them zoom right in and move the right speaker guitar stems slightly to the right to technically be ever so slightly out of sync to the left ones. No panning or phasing required. It sounds like 2 guitar recordings plus goes from left to right and sometimes (due to the quieter inverted high passed stems) right to left on occasions. No fancy plug ins or anything. Just trial and error on my own to work out a way!

Cool, will look into Mimiq! Thanx!

That was absolutely amazing!! I wonder if we use amp Sims, with different cabinets, and maybe even different styles of overdrive Sims, we could maybe get a similar result?!! 🤔🤔🤔

As a guitar player, this video, as helpful as it is, 16:18 makes me think... "you know, I could have just played it again for you". I guess what I'm saying is, it's clearly audible that this works,but at the beginning of the video it's implied that double tracking is a really long, difficult or tedious process. I feel like that shouldn't be the case. I suppose from an engineer's perspective,this sounds easier. As a guitar player who also records and mixes (granted not as proficiently as most of you I'm sure), I just feel like I'd get the double performed way quicker than the setup changes required to fake the double. Ultimately, you changed cabs, heads, installed a pedal, moved mics, searched for phasing issues and had to sit through the tracking capture and quite a few playbacks I'm sure to peg everything down. If you have a good performer they'll get both takes for you in two or three goes surely. Maybe a couple punches to tighten a part or two but otherwise, is it really a time saver?

Have you tried it with IRs? I have the Wall of Sound plug-in and af captor x loadbox. Cabinet is not an option, but you can nudge mics and stuff in the wall of sound plug-in. Will it work, or are IRs not "chaotic" enough?

UNREAL 😎Cant argue with them end results🍻🤘

Question, when reamping are you taking each side of the stereo split and reamping each signal?

See Kohle's experience as always priceless! Thanks 2 you a lot, Man! But I don't think I'll ever would rid of doubling my guitar tracks naturally - this is the only way to learn my songs properly and tight 😂😂😂

Fair enough! It’s e good exercise 🤩

Hi guys. Any plugins that can replace MIMIQ pedal?

Question Here when you revamped with the mimic did use it in stereo on pedal or did you reamp them separately through the mimi

what does the VST Mercuriall WH-1 do to create fake stereo when Depth and Speed are set to zero

can i thank you for the nudging trick for the 2 mics !!! its awesome !!! completly changes the sound

You’re welcome! Next week there will be another video about this. Stay tuned!

Im gonna use plugins for this but im gonna spectrum match my di to another before the phase flip and use a mesa and 6505 sim and different IR's

So i tried to mix some of the last videos. :) I slaved my 6505+ into a Engl Artist Edition poweramp on 2 tracks with Mesa cabs. Then by using the flip phase and Mimic i created track 3-4 with a Marshall amp/cab. This is the first time i really liked blending amps from one di. Its like quad tracking but without loosing attack. Then i took di 1-2 again and re amped through a new amp/cab with Digitech D drop in octave to blend in slightly. So all in all 6 tracks and 4 amps from 2 di tacks. This was more of a test but the cool thing is that it works without the normal phaseproblems. I feel the Mimic works even better like this from 2 to 4 tracks since it seems to add up to like 20 ms delay.

Sounds like you’re having fun! 🤘🖤

I have this pedal. It’s really great!

it sounds amazing but how did it sum to mono? I sometimes use Waves ADT as the randomizer, it sounds great in stereo but not so grreat in mono.

Sums pretty well, at least not worse than a real double which doesn’t sum well in mono when panned wide anyway

Also using the a b pedal scooping and boosting your mids

would be nice to have the wav files of the guitars to compare in our daw and do some tests. That pedal sounds like using micropitch from eventide with subtle settings

Been chasing this fake double/stereo sound for years and Mimiq finally got me there. I use it in the loop of the Axe-Fx, placed before two different amps and cabs and it’s awesome. I have a short sample on my channel (sorry for the shameless plug

Have you tried the Doubler from Nembrini Audio? Super nice VST

I wonder if that celestion is a reissue of the marshall oem vintage 30s. I wish they'd remake the MF v30s, never played them in person but the IRs I have of those are awesome!

I guess it’s something closer to that. But in 16 Ohm

@@KohleAudioKult I believe the original marshall oem g12 vintages came in both 16 and 8 ohm, the famous ones are the jubilee ones but I have seen videos of the 16 ohms from av and bv cabs that seem to sound different to later v30s. Either way the tones here sound great so I am guessing these TAD speakers are just great speakers regardless of what they are trying to be.
