It’s an emulation of a ‘Dub Siren’, an instrument used commonly in dub reggae. If you’ve never heard of a Dub Siren before, check out this video which demonstrates its sound and typical use.
It’s made for Dub / Reggae DJs who want to include their own vintage sounds into their sets. However, the sounds you can make with Dubby are quite diverse.
It can be controlled by keyboard / mouse but it’s recommended that you control it using an iPad or iPhone (running the TouchOSC app and the accompanying layout provided in the download).
Tempo (BPM) for the built-in delay effect can be entered manually or tapped in. It can also be synced to Traktor’s BPM, meaning that any echoes will automatically be kept in time with what you’re playing in Traktor.
