![]() Many of those consoles are still in operation throughout the world. It was also instrumental in establishing the sound of those amazing records. For example, the world renowned Harrison 32C analog console was used on records such as Michael Jackson’s "Thriller", Paul Simon’s "Graceland", Janet Jackson, AC/DC, ABBA, Queen, Led Zeppelin, ELO, Genesis, Blondie, and Supertramp, to name a few. This real-time reputation is, without a doubt, the best measure of a product's true worth. Such a level of acceptance can only be gained as a product proves its maturity through performance in the field. Over the last 40 years, Harrison consoles have earned an enviable reputation for excellence throughout the world. If you are striving to make "in the box" mixes that sound like a hit record, Mixbus32C is the tool you are looking for. Just confused on this point really is all.Mixbus 32C is a full-featured digital audio workstation that improves on the Mixbus platform with an exact emulation of the original Harrison 32C. I know that doesn't make it bad or anything like that, and I'm still considering purchasing a license. So I guess I'm confused as to why Harrison Mixbus 32C does not emulate the hardware's preamp, either via circuit modeling or signal convolution modeling. I also checked Prime Studio's Charly, a free preamp/amp summing tool, and that also has an effect when running an inversion test (about 10% or so of the original samples are affected). I mean, I *just* checked Cream, and ran only the preamp (no eq or compressor) on a track, inverted, and mixed, and it definitely had a big effect, as about 40% of the samples were affected. ![]() So after searching and reading about it I found that video and was confused as to why he gets the results he does. I had heard of Harrison Mixbus 32C before and began wondering about it since I was under the impression that it was a DAW that did that sort of thing right now. In their promotional video for Cream, they are hinting at a DAW in the future, where like in their plugin, every input and control on it is separately sampled, so it will have a "true to the real thing" result. Have been using Acustica plugins after discovering them just over a year ago and learning about their convolution sampling / signal modeling process. ![]() (I.e., I promise I'm not trolling.) I'm coming from using mainly Reaper but also Studio One. I am being completely sincere in my asking about this. Heh, so I guess this has been brought up and caused some controversy before? That should probably be mentioned somewhere so as not to mislead people.Īlternatively, you could add it to a future version of the software, with a "preamp on / off" switch on each channel.įor example, Acustica just released "Cream", where they actually sampled all 24 individual line and mic preamps from the source mixing console, and made them available and selectable within the plugin, so you can replicate exactly the original console's summing. ![]() That to me implies that the whole console is being emulated - including the preamp - mainly because it mentions summing, as well as "analog console circuit designs." But there's no modeling of the actual console's preamp. Precision algorithms for EQ, Filter, Compression, Analog Tape Saturation, and Summing." Mixbus32C also provides 12 stereo aux mix busses, a stereo master bus. The promotional language says, " Precise emulation based on Harrison's famous 32 series analog console circuit designs. So we make the mixer portion of Mixbus32C work just like a hardware console, applying precision & proprietary algorithms to provide Harrison’s great sounding 32C analog conole EQ, HP and LP Filters, and Dynamics on every channel without the need for additional plug-ins. As a company, Harrison has a long history and impressive pedigree. This fully-featured digital audio workstation improves on the existing Mixbus platform with an exact emulation of the original Harrison 32C console What's new in Mixbus32C 7. Both aim to bring a more analog and more human workflow to the DAW experience. So then there's no actual emulation of the original console's preamp? With that in mind, Harrison offers up a whole new type of DAW to add to your studio with their Mixbus software, and with an alternate version, Mixbus 32C. This has been discussed a couple of times already, search the forum. (05-10-2018, 10:45 AM)x42 Wrote: Did you actually enable a EQ or some saturation stage in Mixbus? If not, Mixbus will just pass the signal as-is (down to some dither level < -70dB, so you can't do a perfect NULL test).
