I can't really comment about Heat, although I like what I heard it does very much. I wish they would just make Heat Native too
They could well be sonically related coming from the same designer. However, Phoenix has many more sonic options than Heat which as I remember just has two knobs?
The GUI is a bit old, even in Phoenix II form but who cares? No one is looking at the GUI save us, they are just listening to the magic
To be honest there's a lot of good tape/saturation emulations out there these days and it is early to tell if I have done the right thing purchasing this stalwart. That said, I'm finding it very versatile and controllable without overloading on the controls, if you know what I mean?!
Hope that helps!
