True to its legacy, the microphone preamplifier of the 32Classic MS offers 70 dB of clean gain, ensuring the warm, rich tone that made the Harrison brand famous. Expect full lows, open mids, and extremely natural high frequencies thanks to the Jensen JT-MB-CPCA transformer. The slight attenuation at the extreme ends of the spectrum and the delicate phase shift of the transformer create a sweet, musical sound, ideal for any source.Signature LP/HP FiltersAs in the original 3232 console and the newer 32Classic, the low-pass (LP) and high-pass (HP) filters of the 32Classic MS offer a musical 12 dB/octave slope. The high-pass filter, with a range from 25 Hz to 3.1 kHz, includes a 3 dB resonant peak, while the low-pass filter covers a range from 160 Hz to 20 kHz: perfect for eliminating rumble or softening high frequencies.The true Harrison magic emerges when the filters are used in conjunction with the EQ section to tighten the low frequencies and emphasize the highs, without ever sounding harsh or aggressive.32Classic EQThe 32Classic MS brings the iconic 4-band parametric EQ of the 32Classic console to a 19" rack format for the first time. Created in the 70s – an era when it was crucial to "get everything right" during the recording phase – its frequency bands and proportional Q design were carefully developed to offer broad musical curves and precise sound sculpting.Trusted by legendary engineers like Bruce Swedien and Roger Nichols for its power, and used in renowned studios such as The Village and Westlake Studios in Los Angeles and LSI Studios in Nashville, add one of the most sought-after EQs to your arsenal.Integrated Mixbus and Hybrid Workflow FeaturesBuild your Harrison recording and mixing system one channel at a time with the integrated mixbus of the 32Classic MS.
