Critic Reviews

Great River Harrison 32 EQ

soundonsound.com

The Great River Harrison 32EQ is a beautifully crafted EQ module that excels in delivering a creamy, warm sound, making it a standout choice for rock and pop mixing. Its intuitive design allows for quick adjustments, with overlapping bands that enhance its versatility. However, it lacks metering and LED indicators, which can be frustrating for users during operation. While some might find the internal jumper switch for signal flow changes inconvenient, the overall performance and quality make it hard to dislike. This EQ is not just another hardware option; it surpasses plugin emulations, securing its place as a highly recommended choice for serious audio engineers.
