This is my review for the Mimiq doubler pedal by TC Electronic
When you are double tracking guitars, you record one track to the left and then you re-record the same part and pan it to the right. The Mimiq pedal takes care of that, you record your part once and the Mimiq does the double tracking for you!
In this video I will show you how this awesome pedal works and the method of use in which I think the Mimiq delivers the best results.

I got this pedal last Christmas and I haven't stopped using it, it's brilliant. I love TC pedals. 🤘🎸
3:40 - THIS right there is the whole game. That's where this pedal really shines (IMO) and you nailed it. I wonder what you think of the MIMIQ Mini, considering it has only one input and output. Great video!
Best video I've seen showing how this pedal works and sounds. Thanks.
I have this pwdal and its killer pedal.Saves me so much time,sound terrific,best doubler I have ever heard and it makes your sound really thick and just better.
David Walliman: Thank you for the review on the TC Electronic Mimiq Doubler Pedal. The demonstration sound quality through the left/right sound system was very good.
Great review. I was thinking of buying this for live work, but hadn't even considered the use at home recording. Good job!
I have one of these and this demo has been very helpful! Thank you so much!
I’ve got it into two Marshall 100-watt amps & cabs, running in stereo I’ve had forever. Sounds great clean as well. In mode 3 tightness fully relaxed, giving a 12 string-ish effect. Always Needs to run in stereo or it sort of phase-cancels. Nice review 👍
Can't wait to get one of these. Thanks for the review.
Great video. Just got one. Was checking out videos and was glad to see you covered it. You did a great job here. Very thorough. Thank you.
Thanks brother!
This was really great. Thanks for the very detailed review. Got me really interested in it.
First time and subscribe right away ! Love the pace and explanation and the tone of your vid! very good !
I like this pedal, might have to pick it up. Great review Wallimann! I have the TC flashback and the polytune 2 pedals and like TC products for the money!
Looks great. Wouldn't mind testing this out on vocals, running the dry and stereo pair through separate tube preamps.
How was it? You tried?
GREAT demo - thank you very much !
This pedal is a godsend for every guitarist in a one guitar band :D
Thanks for the video; very informative!
clear n precise vid.. muchas gracias
def use it for stereo with 2 amps. TC told me to place it first in chain or close to it or place it in fx loop first in chain. they said it needs a good clear clean signal.Thanks for the demo
Dang it, if I buy this I'm going to need 2 amps and 2 pedal boards!
Great Video man! Thank you!
Great review
great demo
Great Review! Only the most important infos without smalltalk. I got answers on all my questions, thanks!
totally agree stereo L and R that's the best way to get the most out of it. fat and thick BIG guitar mix
Crushed it man thank you
I like your style even if I'm not into metal, so I've subscribed!
No mention of metal in this video WTF you talking about
I've been wondering how this type of track splitting could be done for the past several weeks. And I didn't want to spend a lot of money doing trial & error. Thanks!
Fantastic!
Hey David, I just got one of these myself. I tried it through two analog amps and it sounded great, but live I just want to use my Axe Fx II. I'm running the pedal stereo into the rear Input 1 (L & R), I've set 2 lines in the patch each with it's own Amp and Cab but when I engage the pedal it's still coming out in mono and the vibrato sounds all distorted. How are you getting the amps to pan left and right?
so this goes at the end of the signal chain right before the amps input? (Guitar > Doubler > 2 amp inputs)
rather than coming out of both amps mono outputs into this > poweramp?
So guitar > amp 1 and amp 2 via splitter > out both into Doubler Stereo inputs > stereo outputs > poweramp > cab?
I have been wondering what if you put two Mimiqs together with two jumpers into two amps. Like playing bridge? Double and redouble.
I’m a single guitarist in a band and I use this live to thicken up my tone. I get a lot of compliments but rarely do I give away my secret.
Can you show how you set up the Axe Fx with the Mimiq?
Hi bro, thanks for video, I've a question, it's possible use that pedal with headphones, and contain the effect doubler? Or the functions work with two amplifiers? Regards!
Great demo David! I would be curious to know how it works with acoustic guitar (with pick-up system à la Fishman). It would be really time-saving if you could record one acoustic rhythm guitar that sound like two...or three... :-)
Where would you put this in a signal chain. After the compressor and before the dirt pedals? I currently run compressor-tube screamer-fuzz-delay.
How can I use this pedal live ? Guitar into the pedal and the axe fx with xlr out left/right to the PA?
Sick!!!!
in a stereo setup does it matter if i run dirt and other pedals before the mimic before splitting into two hi gain amps?
I have questions- will this still sound good and be noticeable w/o a stereo setup, meaning with only a single speaker amp?
thanks for the review David :) I got one simple question, how does it sound AFTER low gain overdrive? (I gotta use that way due to pedalboard spacing problems :P)
I wonder what that pedal would sound like with 1 amp but 2 cabs?
I subscribed!
Hi David, I've recently got this pedal and also a hotone ampero 2 stomp
The stomp has two inputs and allows you to run two alp chains. Assuming I could setup a similar chain (two amps) like you did with the axefx?
Ive seen in the manual that the mimiq can also be run in the effects loop..
Can this be used in a live performance if I bring two separate amps to the gig?
thanks!
That is a gorgeous RG #Subscribed
Decent pedal...I still miss the 'salut' at the end though!
good review. i have 2 questions: how does it sound with a clean or semi-clean sound? and do you still get the effect with a mono rig?
you won't get the double track effect with just 1 amp in a mono setup
Pedal demo starts at 01:40 , you are welcome.
Hi there!
Where would you recommend this pedal on the pedalboard?
Cheers
JS
odd question, if you plug a stereo effect in and only use the mono out. dose it sum the stereo signal? or dose it give you the left out only? or something else altogether?
Did he answer?
Thanks David Wallimann.
So is it better before or after stereo delay effect?
it has that 80’s chorus vibes😍
3:08 how do you connect to the axe fx? it only has one input?
It has additional line ins in the back. :)
It's great in wet/dry with two different amp models and IRs if you are going to FOH. Ofc it's always better with amps.
Doesnt quite sound like 2 guitars, but I like the effect.
Does this goes in Send/Return or??
What does the internal switches do?
I've a question: where would the best placement for it be on my pedalboard chain??
i am bit confused! how i connect this to an audio interface?
guitar -> mimiq right out left out -> audio ch1 in and audio ch2 in?
This is probably the best solution. Once connected to the different inputs of your Audio Interface, split the channels in your DAW, and pan them R and L.
@@yehorsanko9241 ty i am about to buy this pedal asap
Can i put the pedal after a cabinet simulator?
Looks good at home or live
Great way to start a video David. Serve up a taster of the goodies first. :-)
Can you use it on bass guitar?
Play "Highway Star"!
Theres a guy on here that uses it with a helix....man it sounds great clean....dirty..weird effects...etc....i gotta get 1
Hi David. I always love your rrevviews and playing. I also do not get this pedal. I would have to play I guess. It seems like i could do it all with my AX8/Helix or a good delay in my live (with rest of the setup). I guess it might save time iin a studio but how much is debatable as you can adjust or add to the doubling in your software. I read your precision factor comment though. This could very well be one of those pedals that hook you once you try it.
To be truthful, I really cant tell wnen its on or off.........good upload.............
is this an overdrive pedal ??
Note: 2:15 Unless you’re Randy Rhoads
Why you gotta flex on the axefx
This pedal reminds me of Lynyrd Skynyrd's leads on the studio albums.
I was thinking about getting the mimiq mini, but it is not stereo. do you think it’s still worth it if it doesn’t have the stereo feature?
Great review btw !
Buy the stereo. I can’t stress it enough how cool it is. I could burn all my very sought after pedals and not care as much as if I forgot to power up my stereo mimiq. It is mind blowing fun.
Did anyone tell you there's some John Bonamassa quality in your speech? ;) Anyway, great review.
Sounds a little like Bob Seger Her Strut.
Doug demuro
This isn’t meant for two amp use just use an a/b pedal for that
You have no clue.
Fun story about this pedal My roommate was sleeping and I decided to wake him up by playing the fear of the dark riff at 4 in the morning. Also waking up everyone in the adjacent rooms and across the hall
Thank YOU for a clean video... these wannabe rockstar distortion overdrive reviewers are a pain in the first 5 minits of my....
***!!!! ooops this is NOT referring to your review AT ALL!!
HI David (great video)...hi everybody that use a pedalboard, an effect chain
OK...... I read that TC TOLD "mimiq needs a clear signal...SO put it first in chain or first in the effect loop"
But hey, listen at this:
- if I put it LAST in chain in my pedalbord, then I can go stereo to my TWO tube amps (using ALL my pedals of course)
- While, if I put it first in chain in the pedalboard, how can I go stereo through all my pedals, then to my amps? You mean that, to put it first in chain, you need ALL the pedals to be stereo? That's not possible.
So TC makes a pedal that works better with the TWO stereo ouputs going to TWO amps......it really seem that the mimiq doubler was born FOR THAT......but then they say "PUT IT FIRST IN CHAIN".
What the fuck ????
Second: they say "or...put it first in the fx loop"........in what fx loop, of ONE the TWO amps???? But then, how to go stereo to TWO amps for getting the best STEREO effect / panning, or stuff like that??
It does not make sense.
So, definitely.......If I put it LAST in chain, I got ALL the effects going through BOTH amps....and, most important thing, I can use mimiq into BOTH amps (or both amps' line out, to go to soundcard or multitrack to PAN ONE TO THE LEFT, ONE TO THE RIGHT.
If I put it FIRST IN CHAIN, how the hell am I going to use my pedalbord??? One out through the pedalboard AND the other one DIRECT to the second amp??? But if I do so, one of the two guitars would have NO effect.....and the result should be good? THAT'S just bullshit.
So I really don't understand what the fuck they are talking about when they say "put it first in chain or first in the fx loop"....like someone quoted too here in the comments.
Cheers
It should be after dirt and before time-based effects like delays and reverbs BUT yes, those time-based effects must be stereo. I watched an episode of That Pedal Show with Tor from TC and it was last in the chain.
"There's no difference", said by people listening with their mono phone speaker 😂😂
1:49 i hear 0 difference :D
No offense, but I'm not interested in what are considered 'creative' or 'artistic' applications of an effect; that's an individual decision. I want to hear the effect demonstrated, and how well it does it. I want a doubler for my lead work, to make my lines sound fatter, fuller. On chords/rhythm, it sounds good, but setting a chorus to that near-doubling chime setting is more ambient. Maybe because I'm listening to this on my iPhone, but I'm not hearing what I thought I would. I'll have to wait until I hear it on the home PC, and if it's the same, I'll get an EH Small Clone.
Phoenix7 chorus is vibrato with the clean signal still audible (small clone). It can help to thicken the sound however it will definitely color your tone to something beyond just “thicker” (which may or may not be desirable in all situations). As far as doublers, there’s this pedal (Mimiq), there’s the Keeley 30ms, and there’s the strymon deco. For thickening solos in particular, you may also find the Xotic EP booster pedal helpful as well. It’s a boost pedal based on the old echoplex’s preamp section and adds a richness to solos (beyond just volume boost) but without going overboard. But out of all doublers I’d go with this one, the others are good as well but this one is the most straight forward
A delay,or very tight chorus? For real? Not much in enhancing tone or sound. Just another pedal in the chain. Sounds more like a exciter pedal for ambiance. I wouldn’t waist my time or money.....TC or competitors!
danmorgan77 No idea what you are missing brother
would this take my mono signal make it stereo? Can i go in mono and get a stereo spread on the 2 outs?
John Miller yes
Yes. It would generate a stereo effect.
