HEAT

HEAT is a distortion and saturation plugin featuring five analog-inspired circuit modes, designed to deliver a wide range of harmonic textures—from subtle warmth to extreme fuzz. It combines authentic analog-style coloration with precise digital control for fast, flexible tone shaping.

Select from five custom analog-style circuits inspired by tube distortion, each with unique dynamic response, harmonic coloration, and saturation character—from smooth, tape-like warmth to full-spectrum, high-gain aggression.

The DRIVE knob controls input intensity into the saturation stage, while the BIAS knob adjusts waveform symmetry to shift the harmonic balance. Together, they let you shape distortion behavior with precision—without relying on EQ.

Two fully independent 4-band EQs—one pre-saturation, one post—allow for surgical tone sculpting before and after the distortion stage. Use them simultaneously to control both the input contour and the final output character.

Automatically adjusts the output level as DRIVE is increased, maintaining consistent loudness and headroom throughout your tone-shaping process. No need for constant manual gain staging.

Instantly add speaker cabinet realism to DI guitar or bass tracks with built-in IR-based cabinet emulation. No extra plugins, routing, or external IR loaders required.

Blend clean and processed signals with phase-accurate precision. Perfect for adding harmonic content while retaining transient detail and dynamic range in your source material.

HEAT is part of the Synergy Core Native plugin collection.
