Harrison Audio has launched the latest version of its renowned digital audio workstation (DAW), bringing its legendary analog console-inspired sound into a modern production suite. With a legacy spanning 50 years, Harrison Audio has shaped the sound of iconic records, and Mixbus 11 continues that tradition by offering powerful new production tools and an intuitive workflow designed for musicians and producers.
Mixbus 11 introduces a refreshed graphical interface with dedicated Cue, Record, Edit, and Mix pages, streamlining the creative process. The Focus Channel provides instant access to Harrison’s signature 32C EQ, Drive, Compressor, Gate, and Mixbus Sends, ensuring a seamless mixing experience.
For MIDI producers, Mixbus 11 now includes a dedicated piano roll editor, allowing for precise MIDI sequencing. Additionally, per-region FX processing enables users to apply plug-in effects directly to audio clips, enhancing workflow efficiency.
Mixbus 11 is packed with studio-grade multitrack recording and editing tools, intuitive arrangement features, and high-quality virtual instruments. Leveraging our decades of expertise in analog console design, Mixbus 11 also includes our unique knob-per-function mixer, providing direct control over Harrison’s signature signal processing on every track. Additionally, the “Mixbus” feature allows for easy grouping and processing of your tracks, enabling you to mix in-context and achieve a cohesive sound, just as you would on a traditional analog recording console.
