In this deep dive, we're going to take a look at using Revoice Pro 5 to create a realistic-sounding set of vocal doubles.

For this example, I’m using a stereo instrumental. But thanks to deep DAW integration, you don’t need to import instrumental stems to hear processing in context—Revoice Pro handles that automatically.

Here’s the session setup: we have a lead vocal and an instrumental. Let’s have a quick listen. The performance sounds solid in terms of tuning, but it’s missing some impact. Nothing makes a chorus pop quite like a wide, stereo vocal double layered beneath it. So let’s build one.

Hitting the B key opens the new Process Panel. Instead of choosing Match (Timing, Pitch, or Level), I’m selecting a Doubler process. Since I’ve selected this region already, the input defaults to Selected Audio—perfect for syncing the double with the start and end of the lead vocal.

If I only wanted the double on a specific section, I could highlight a range and Revoice would automatically adjust the input bounds. But here, I want the double across the entire chorus.

Now we need to choose a preset. You can go mono or stereo. Mono might be best for subtle verse layering, but for choruses, I want a stereo effect. Under Factory Presets, I’m picking Vocal Moderate, a stereo setting. The input is set to Lead Vocal, and the output is auto-configured. Let’s create the process.

That’s it! If you like the result, you can spot the processed audio directly back into your DAW. But let’s go deeper and tweak the double for realism.

Clicking the top-left of the Process Panel shows detailed controls. Since this is a stereo preset, we have two output waveforms: Left and Right. In the Process Settings panel, Channel 1 represents the left channel, and Channel 2 the right.

The two key parameters here are Average Delay and Formant Shift. On the Left, the default might be 25ms delay and -3% formant shift. On the Right, maybe 34.9ms and +3%. I’ll tighten these: drop the Left to 20ms and -4%, and the Right to 30ms and +4%.

As you tweak, the double updates in real time. Solo it to preview, or check it in the full mix context. Unlike basic plugins that use static offsets, Revoice Pro applies variable delay and formant shifts to build natural-sounding doubles—perfect for modern vocals that need size without sounding robotic.

If your mix needs something more subtle, you can switch to a mono preset. For example, changing to Mono Vocal Mild will update the doubler in real time. You can then fine-tune the Average Delay (e.g., 17.6ms) and dramatically push the Formant Shift for extra color—especially useful in high-res mode.

Want to hear it soloed? Isolate the mono double alongside the dry lead vocal and you’ll hear how much character it adds without crowding the stereo field.

The doubler workflow is intuitive: open the Process Panel, pick your preset, tweak as needed, then spot the result back into your DAW. It’s quick and flexible.

For DAWs that support ARA like Studio One, Cubase, or Reaper, the new Revoice Pro Link plugin lets you capture and create doubles directly in the background. Just set the Link plugin to Capture and Create Doubles, pick your preset, hit capture, and your doubler is built automatically inside Revoice Pro.

Once it’s created, you can drag and drop the result straight back into your timeline using your DAW’s native placement features—like “Move to Origin” in Cubase. That means you can instantly audition vocal doubles in the context of your full mix without breaking creative flow.

And that’s how to create realistic-sounding vocal doubles in seconds with Revoice Pro 5. More deep dives coming soon!
