Antares WARM Tube Saturation Plug-in

Original price was: $79.00.Current price is: $39.50.

The Antares Warm is a characterful saturation plug-in perfect for a wide array of sources. Two tube models, a subtly vintage velvet mode and an intense crunch mode let you achieve old-school warmth, or blown-out industrial effects. Unique to Warm, Omni Tube mode applies saturation to the full signal instead of just transients, like most tube preamps. Warm’s easy-to-use interface and light CPU usage will make this a mainstay on all of your mix channels.

Description

Warm
Analog Tube Saturation Emulator

Auto-Tune’s Warm is a highly DSP-efficient tube saturation plug-in, meaning you can use it on a multitude of tracks simultaneously. Furthermore, its intuitive interface and dynamic Drive control let you adjust the saturation levels and track volume in real-time. Warm recreates the authentic effect of an analog tube or a high-end mic preamp directly in your DAW. The two saturation models—Velvet and Crunch—can be easily fine-tuned to satisfy the needs of audio engineers and music producers across all genres.

How does Auto-Tune’s Warm work?

The Input gain on the left side of the plug-in window gives you control over the track's volume before it hits the tube, while the Output gain allows you to adjust the instrument's volume after the plug-in is applied. Regulating the output signal is fundamental as the saturation plug-in will naturally increase the track's volume, and clips might occur. There are two models of analog tube saturation: Velvet and Crunch. The former provides a more subtle saturation, ideal for vocals and string instruments, whereas the latter is suitable for adding a thicker distortion to an electric guitar. Finally, with the Drive control, you can adjust the amount of tube saturation. When applying Warm, make sure you regulate the Drive and Output controls as you increase the saturation level: a rule of thumb is that the higher the Drive, the lower the Output. While with traditional tube preamps, the saturation affects mainly the transient peaks, you can apply saturation to the entire audio signal by selecting Omni Tube.

Introducing Warm

Discover the effect that delivers authentic analog sound in a digital world.

Bring Up the Heat

Generate the warming effects of classic tube saturation. While optimized for adding warmth to vocals, it sounds just as good on guitar, horns, strings, synth pads, or pretty much anything.

Distortion Goes Deep

Crunch tube gives you the deep, warm distortion of an overdriven tube amplifier. You can crank it up for an "industrial" vocal sound, or as an effect on guitar, bass, or synths.

Saturate Everything

Warm’s unique Omni Tube feature lets you apply tube saturation to the entire signal, instead of just the transients, as is typically the case with a tube preamp.

Apply Liberally

And since Warm is extremely DSP efficient, you can use it on an almost unlimited number of tracks simultaneously. Once you start using Warm, you’re going to want it on almost everything.
