Pro Tools HEAT adds analog emulation to every track, enhancing the overall sound of the mix and providing flexibility in using the feature.
HEAT (Harmonically Enhanced Algorithm Technology) is a feature included in Pro Tools subscriptions that adds "warmth" and analog character to your mixes. It emulates the sound of classic analog equipment like vintage mixing consoles and tape saturation.
No, HEAT is not a plugin. It's integrated directly into Pro Tools, making it easier to access and use compared to traditional plugins. You don't need to insert it on individual tracks or search for it in menus.
HEAT is available in the Pro Tools Mix window. You can apply it globally to your entire mix using the Drive and Tone controls, or you can bypass it on specific tracks to only affect certain sounds.
HEAT is only included with Pro Tools subscriptions (Pro Tools and Pro Tools Ultimate). It is not available with perpetual licenses or Pro Tools Artist.
Whether or not HEAT is worth using depends on your personal preferences and workflow. Some users find it a valuable tool for adding subtle warmth and character to their mixes, while others prefer the sound of specific analog emulation plugins. Experimenting with HEAT and comparing it to other options is the best way to determine if it fits your needs.
