Default HEAT
Can I use HEAT if I don't have any Avid hardware.
I only use PT HD11 with PrismAudio USB external audio interface.
Thanks...

Can only be used with HDX systems. I have HDN with a 16x16 and own Heat but can't use it.

Heat was developed with the help of Dave Hill at Cranesong who makes Phoenix which is also a nice saturation plug.

Right, without TDM or HDX hardware, HEAT will not be available.

There are plugs available that can get you the distortion HEAT provides.

Granted there are other plugins that offer harmonic distortion for your mixer the fact is that they are all different from each other. The Slate stuff is great but it is far more subtle than HEAT and the stereo field is not affected in the same way that it is with HEAT. It's a matter of personal preference of course as to which one you may prefer but the point is that there is no retrofit replacement for HEAT, if that is what one needs.

If you haven't already, try Digi Reel Tape Saturation. I use it regularly in my workflow. It's really great. Also, you probably know that Phoenix, made by Dave Hill as well(as HEAT), is very good and available in native format...

I never use HEAT as tape (CCW) and have found nothing at all like what HEAT does in the CW positions.
