What Heat Up 3 Is For
"Heat Up 3" is a versatile virtual instrument designed for beatmaking and modern production: trap, hip-hop, RnB, drill, urban pop, or EDM. It condenses pianos, brass, 808s, leads, pads, guitars, choirs, strings, and more into a single plugin, allowing you to quickly compose ideas, build full arrangements, and finalize tracks with a radio-ready sound.
Main Features
Ready-to-Use Sounds and Expressiveness
Each instrument is multi-sampled across the entire keyboard range to preserve the attack, timbre, and dynamics of the original sources. The expression page allows you to fine-tune the playing response and humanize your performances in no time.
Sound Design and Built-in Effects
Shape your presets with a rack of 12 effects (reverb, chorus, compressor, vibrato, tremolo, reverse, etc.) that can be reordered. The transparent limiter secures the output level, while two ADSR envelopes and two LFOs with waveform editors, assignable to any parameter, open up wide modulation possibilities.
Assisted Creativity
The integrated sequencer, delivered with numerous patterns and a "Humanize" mode, stimulates inspiration. The "Atmosphere" layers add textures (tape hiss, vinyl crackle, rain...) and accept drag & drop of your own samples. The "On Release Sample" function triggers a sample upon release, either systematically or randomly, also via drag & drop.
