Introducing Analog Heat +FX

I’m starting to convince myself to sell the Syntakt and get the AHFX.

After I got the ST I bought the DN & AK and I also have the DT. Thinking maybe it’s a bit too much. Maybe it also reduces my GAS for the GLMK2.

Will I miss the ST or does that sound like a solid plan?

Put it aside for a couple of weeks, you’ll have your answer.

OB was checked each time within the system menu.
AH was not plugged in to USB during installation each time.

I’m using a Mac running the latest is.
Come to think of it, it just updated a couple days ago. Which may be why

Solid plan imo. You have enough sound sources and could need a few fx to spice them up.

My second day really using this thing

The fact that all the fx r kind of vanilla actually make it well suited as an end of chain box. I got a lot of these fx in pedal or eurorack form but the heat is a nice touch on top of these on the master. It can be really subtle.

I also replaced my gen loss and boum with this and I don’t miss it in the chain at all.

I almost wanna get another one to use just on drums

The Heats really put a fantastic sheen on drums.
I always struggle a little to get my tracks form 90% to 100.
The Heat has definitely made that possible.

I used to have a Deco, and I still miss that.
It has a super silky sound and performance with the lag knobs sounds fantastic.

I’m curious, what makes you say that?

I was reading through the thread and ppl were complaint about the lack of certain and fx or that they weren’t flexible enough. Like wanting shimmer or something.

When I say vanilla I guess I mean that they can just be really subtle and complimentary to other fx’s that r already n the mix.

Also love that a lot of the fx l add a stereo field to my mixes.

It really just seems like the digi boxes fx’s which I always felt like has a big sweet spot but doesn’t get too crazy

Would love for a glitch/repeat feature. And I’m excited to see what future updates will hold :slight_smile:

Totally!
I’ve always wanted to see some features from “BeatLookUp” or “the Finger” in hardware fx.

Me too, maybe converting that Digi-style delay to an OT-style freeze delay.

That would be SICK.
Have a delay lock feature like OT.
Maybe they will implement a comb filter too.

I never really considered they may add fx in updates.
That would be amazing

Comb filter would be great! I guess the issue here is the lack of a dedicated sequencer for controlling the hypothetical freeze or comb filter.

I’d be into manually triggering it if anything.
Also if they just made the ability to map 1 parameter from external sequencer that would be sick.
For delay lock similar to the OT, set it to lock, then a Dry?Wet value of zero does the thing.
Same for comb filter, just being able to control the dry/Wet externally.

You could definitely send a CC to toggle but that’s for synth nerds like us rather than the general populace. Providing an effect that requires external triggering would baffle and confound the majority of people. :slight_smile:

Hello all, I am still in Cairo and got some Dirty Warbling Wavetable Old School Techno for you. Warble and Round Fuzz on the AH+.

Right around the time I got an AH+FX I updated my Mac Mini to Ventura 13.4.1
When I try uninstalling and installing the latest Overbridge, I do not see the AH+FX as a plugin in Live.
Nothing shows up.
I’ve tried re-installing a few times, I definitely have the AH+FX checked in the installation process.

Is it not showing up because of Ventura?

Have you checked my reply on your similar previous post? I’m on Windows but maybe it do apply to Mac too. Like I said, the AH+FX plugin is in another Folder and in Ableton Live, it shows up under the VST3 Folder.

I totally missed that, thank you that worked.
I’m completely unfamiliar with VST3
