It encapsulates a complex parallel processing chain under its hood, revealing only the necessary controls to get perfectly compressed bass in a matter of seconds. Save your sessions from convoluted multi-track mixing arrangements, and simply use DoubleTap to get great bass immediately.

DoubleTap replaces all of your bass compressors in a simple, intuitive interface. Whether real bass or synth bass, DoubleTap will get you world class results in less than a minute.

Features

DoubleTap is based on a classic professional mix engineer workflow - splitting the instrument across multiple frequency bands for optimum processing efficiency. Ensuring both perfectly controlled low-end, while still allowing the mids and highs to breathe without being stifled by excessive compression.

DoubleTap combines two VCA-style compressors in a neat package - both purpose-dialed for maximum processing efficiency.

The Low Comp is a moderately aggressive unit, able to clamp down heavily on sub low through to mid-bass frequencies with great transparency.

The All Comp is a gentle, finishing compressor, designed to unify the resulting tone across the frequency spectrum.

Bespoke Saturation

DoubleTap comes with two different saturation types, to add the finishing touch to your bass sound.

'Glue' is based on Flatline's waveshaper, gently nesting the bass into the mix.

'Grunt' is based on our favourite bass saturation - using an aggressive parallel saturation technique to give the bass more body, presence and weight in the mix.

EDM Mode

The EDM button multiplies the operating range of DoubleTap - allowing far more aggressive processing. Ideally suited to synth bass mixing purposes, it allows the saturation algorithms to reach into ‘drive’ territory to provide both exciting midrange textures and thicker low-end to your mixes.

“The EDM mode made an organ bass I tried it on growl really nice and the interface is very clear and simple to use, I love stuff that you just look at and try stuff and things sort of do what you expect them to do, so nicely done!”

Never worry about whether you're over or under-compressing bass again. DoubleTap does all the hard work, so you can get back to being creative.”

I had my doubts, but was very surprised!

I thought that this was just another no name, nonsense type of plug-in, but I have to admit, it works really well for gluing the bass tone as well as very distinct! Great power! 🐹🤘🏼

Good plugin, great with few additions.

Plugin does what it's supposed to, if it had a bit more information about the knobs, it would be an easy five stars.

Best plugin for bass and for gluing your mix.

Excellent Tool for Shaping Low-end and Bass Presence

I tried the demo of this product and, surprisingly, just like the launch video claimed, I only needed to spend a few seconds turning knobs and I found myself with an incredibly well-balanced low-end. Just an incredibly efficient tool that cuts out that need for extensive compression and EQ chains, very happy with my purchase.
