Heavier Metal is a modern distortion plugin based on one of the most aggressive pedals of the 1990s. Built using Artera DSPβs Parametric NAM engine, it delivers not just the sound β but the full behavior of the original circuit. Every knob. Every nuance. Captured with precision. This isnβt a snapshot. Heavier Metal is fully parametric β meaning all front-panel controls respond just like the original analog pedal. From razor-sharp riffs to soaring leads, it gives you the full expressive range of the original hardware, with the flexibility of a native plugin. Key Features β Fully parametric NAM model β not a static capture β Recreates the full tone-shaping behavior of the original HM-style pedal β Mid-forward gain structure with massive sustain and tight low-end β AUv3 plugin for macOS and iOS β Native support for Apple Silicon (M1/M2) β Ultra-low CPU usage and near-zero latency Compatibility Heavier Metal runs in any AUv3-compatible host such as Logic Pro (Mac/iPad), GarageBand (Mac/iOS), AUM, Cubasis, and more. Available exclusively on the App Store.
