Dan Lovetone Coggins' Doppelganger |
| Description |
It’s a Doppelganger Mk 2 (these have in addition to the early version spec. a direct output for pseudo-stereo effects, a slow LFO rate switch and a square wave option switch for LFO 1).
s/n 0496, circa 2000 – VG + (i.e. very good condition owing to a few blemishes –see pics, otherwise it would be in EX condition. Packaging is moderate-good condition with some scribbles and noticeable wear and has no Lovetone stamp or inner carton. I have used bubblewrap to accommodate this. The rubber mat was removed ages ago and lost so I have “made good” by fitting four rubber feet. The original manual is included and is in Ex condition. Fully tested and working with a 3-month warranty from Dinosaural following the Auction close date. A brand new “light jack” will be supplied.
The Doppelganger is/was a four-stage optically modulated phaser-vibrato with three footswitches, one for bypass, one to select phase-vib and a third switch to select twin oscillators with independent rates and depths as an alternative to the main LFO. The main LFO may be bi-phased in a figure-8 pattern on the two notch bands for a subtler sweep. The blend of signal is adjustable and there is a resonance control. The sweep of both low and high frequencies is adjustable and there is provision for a pedal to alter rate as well as option to use a “light jack” for optical control of rate (as with the Meatball, this was a retro-fit possibilty so needs plugging in half-way to work!). In bypass it is possible to select hard-wire bypass or carry the signal statically via the phase filter for a “spectral EQ” sound quality – very musical and nice for treating instrument sounds at mixdown in the studio while not necessarily sweeping them.
Again, this is one that I “cherry-picked” to keep for my own use some 11+ years ago, it’s a very nice sounding one. I will include a signed certificate of providence and authenticity with it.
