Harrison® 32C Channel EQ
-
Colorful four-band EQ modeled directly from a certified hit-making console.
The Harrison 32C Channel EQ plug-in for UAD-2 hardware and Apollo interfaces is an expert emulation of this classic, character-rich, four-band channel EQ. Partnering with Harrison Consoles Ltd. and engineer Bruce Swedien (Quincy Jones, Michael Jackson), Universal Audio has recreated the Harrison four-band 32C channel EQ from Swedien’s own Harrison 32 Series console — the same console behind Michael Jackson’s Thriller. “I never dreamed Universal Audio’s design team could come so unbelievably close to capturing the sound of my beloved desk,” says Swedien. “The additional Harrison EQs within Pro Tools sessions are a Godsend.”
Renowned for its colorful, smooth high-end response, and friendly, put-it-on-everything usefulness, the Harrison 32C EQ plug-in features four overlapping parametric bands. Each of the Low (40-600 Hz), Low-Mid (200Hz to 3.1 kHz), Hi-Mid (400 Hz to 6 kHz), and High (900 Hz to 13 kHz) bands have fully sweepable Frequency and Gain Controls. Instead of traditional Q controls, the 32C has circuitry that automatically adjusts the effective bandwidth, adding to its signature sound. Furthermore, the Low band is switchable from Peak to Shelving EQ. Finally, the Harrison 32C features 12 dB per octave High and Low Pass filters which can be switched in or out.Shape your mixes with the same colorfully smooth EQ used on Thriller
Polish lead vocals and drums with silky analog texture
Expertly sculpt electric guitars to sit in a mix
Harness presets from legendary engineer Bruce Swedien
Accentuate resonance on electric pianos, strings, and more

“The Harrison 32C EQ plug-in has a lovely top end, giving my sources a nice ‘ping.’”

An EQ that does the job with a bit of magic.
I was I bit skeptic about this EQ after reading the reviews but yes this is a simple EQ that adds high frequencies with no harshness, good on bass, guitar. It is simple and it gives good...

A plugin made of pure Sorcery
I immediately felt a connection with this eq. Very musical, easy to use and it will never sound bad. Compared to newer eq's, this one holds it's own ground. Don't hesitate to buy this one!

An EQ that does the job with a bit of magic.
I was I bit skeptic about this EQ after reading the reviews but yes this is a simple EQ that adds high frequencies with no harshness, good on bass, guitar. It is simple and it gives good results and fast. Tried the demo twice to be sure and it's great.

HARRISON 32C-
I’M A LATE ARRIVAL IN THE HOUSE OF UAD AND WHEN I HEAR THIS LITTLE THING I’M VERY GLAD TO HAVE FINALLY ARRIVED. I’VE NEVER USED THE ORIGINAL AND I’M NOT ONE TO CARE ABOUT RECREATIONS OR WHETHER IT SOUNDS ANALOG OR NOT. I JUST WANT TO TURN A KNOB AND GET OFF SO TO SPEAK AND THIS THING HASN'T LET ME DOWN. PHENOMENAL H/LP FILTERS!.

Absolutely Awesome
I didn't think I could get excited about another EQ. I was wrong. I tried the demo since it was on sale and was honestly very pleasantly surprised. It just sounds and behaves differently than any other EQ I have (and I have a metric ton of them). It sounds very musical and I find it useful on many, many tracks. Super simple as well. Everything you need and nothing you don't. It's a wonderful EQ.
R. Weissauer
Amazing or not ?
This i s one of the finest EQ's I have ever heard ... I mean the UAD version.
I own Harrison (Great River) 500 modules, not the console version, but in comparison with these
I should honestly say none of them is better than the other. On the 500 modules I much prefer
the high and low pass filters, they add something undescribsable to the sound. On the UAD I
much prefer (hard to believe but true !) the tone of mid and high EQ versus the hardware analog.
Thank you UAD for this!R. Tagirov
Simple and great
This EQ is so simple and easy to understand, but its sound just does something incredible.
I'm placing it on guitars or drum buss and always know that I'll achieve great sonic improvement.J. murphy
best snare eq ever

Fantasic.
What can I say? I love to work with this EQ, it brings a lot of fun and speed back into EQing. My goto EQ from now when I aim to shape the niceness into signals. Grande!

Harrison EQ
This EQ is definitey near the top of the UAD EQs. The fact that the Q can't be controlled should not deter anyone. They did a fantastic job with the curves. I find myself only having to do very small adjustments to get things where I like them. Sometimes it sounds like I'm just moving the mic instead of eq. High and low filters are done very well and can very useful when needed. The overall sound reminds me of when I used to mix on a real console. It just seems to have a certain solid character that's hard to describe.

Harrison EQ
Trying out plug-ins is always great fun and actually buying them for me has to do with the fact that you actually feel comfortable using them in sessions. This particular plug-in really blew me away while using it in my sessions, You can use it on so many things and I'm still using it in practically every mixing session I do. This is a character plug-in and what a nice character it is !

Harrison 32c
Again UAD has done there homework this is by far a fantastic plugin it works so good. I have never worked with the original unit but I bet UAD did it justice with this plugin
K. Hegyi
This is Quality!
This is just pure perfection! If you ask me this is 10/10! Don't bother with the 32C SE version as it doesn't sound the same as the normal one. Delete that version from your plugin list as it just doesn't cut it... Having said that the 32C is brilliant! The filter are so wonderful and natural that I'm not going to bother with the Moog Filter that UA also sells as this one is just as brilliant.
This EQ is so sweet and magnificent that you'll fall in love with it the first time you use it. It's so easy to get a great sound on it and in general it's just a beautiful machine. I love the 4 band structure. It might feel limited for some but these 4 bands will just hive you the perfect colour!
10/10M. Sergeev
Brilliant

Harrison 32 EQ A game-changer plugin!
5-Star, best ever...
So, here is the list of plugins I just bought, besides the Classic bundle that was included with my UAD-2. EMT 140, Lexicon 224, Studer A800, Ampex ATR, Helios EQ, Copper Time Cube and the Harrison 32.
Out of all of these plugins there is not a single plugin that was more amazing than the Harrison. When I added that to my lead vocal, it just made things so incredibly awesome, it is indescribable. This EQ is the best out there and then the Helios would be next for me. What this Harrison does to the mids is beyond reproach.
