Audio professionals in search of a powerful hybrid analog/digital audio processor will be impressed with the Elektron Analog Heat +FX, the next-generation effect that builds upon the original's analog warmth, depth, and character, but now with cutting-edge digital effects.The Analog Heat +FX provides 8 fully analog stereo distortion circuits from clean boost to complete annihilation and everything inbetween. There is also an analog multimode filter (7 filter types), and a 2-band adaptable stereo analog EQ. On the digital side, the unit provides eight digital effects including Reverb, Delay, Chorus, Warble, Bits, Compressor, Bass Focus, and Noise Gate. From the Flow page, you can change the order of the effects, set the dry/wet mix, and activate/bypass entire FX blocks. Add motion and control with three onboard LFOs (2 destinations each) and an assignable envelope generator/envelop follower (2 destinations). The integrated 2-in / 2-out USB audio interface provides professional recording and playback for any application.

Add warmth, depth, and character with eight fully analog stereo distortion circuits ranging from subtle clean boost to complete annihilation. Each circuit offers its own unique way of processing sound. Clean boost, saturation, enhance, mid-drive, crunch, distortion, harmonic fuzz, or high gain. Ready to enhance or destroy your sampler, drum machine, synth, vocal, drums, master bus, kalimba, or whatever source comes to mind.Digital Effects Drift away when adding movement and texture with the worn-out warble effect. Let the inspiration be whatever nostalgic magnetic media comes to mind. Continue that journey with a dash of chorus. Create rich immersive soundscapes with delay and reverb effects. Mix grit with a dash of bitrate and sample-rate reduction, adding that special touch of lo-fi glitchyness.Squeeze or fine-tune the dynamic range of your signal with the compressor, and let bass focus nail down the stereo field to mono at the chosen crossover point, allowing you to get a tight focused low end.Flow Here is where the real superfun begins. In the Flow page, you can quickly rearrange, mute, and unmute effects to find your own signal flow, with your own special timbres. Add depth, dimension, complexity, and color to your music. The rearrangeable signal path lets you showcase all of its nuance. Let the options be endless. Save your explorations, no matter how wild, in one of the 512 preset slots for instant recall.Filter and EQ Shape and carve your material's frequency and overtone content using the resonant multimode filter. Select from 7 filter types like the classic low pass and high pass, as well as a bandpass, notch, or peak. Fine-tune add and subtract your lows and highs by twisting the knobs of the 2-band adaptable EQ. Then fracture your sound using the noise gate.Modulation Enter the Mod page for the next level of fun. Here you've got a useful tool kit of modulation options, each with two destinations. Take the incoming sound and shape it into a modulation source using the envelope follower, which can be sent to tons of parameters like filter, drive, or bit reduction.Make the parameters wobble and weave in a coordinated or chaotic manner using any of the 3 multiwaveform LFOs with a wide speed range all with their own individual settings and destinations. Be complex. Be simple. It's you who decides.Ins and Outs You have stereo input and stereo output plus two control inputs for control voltage, expression inputs, or foot switches. These can be
