The saturation isn't from the channel strip in this DAW, it was (when those videos were made) in the busses and you could dial in drive. I believe they've added drive to the channels in Mix bus V9 which is good, as sometimes if I was stem mixing, I'd route each stem to a buss, purely for the colour. Dan's great, but this video was quite possibly the worst he's ever made and he omitted so many of the most important parts. Good for clicks though, so I can see why. Personally I don't rate the plugin in the video, or the other buss one, but the DAW has some really nice color 🙂 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirean Posted November 16, 2023 Author Share Posted November 16, 2023 (edited) I wouldn't know a thing 😄 But, I figured it was good to throw out there before people get blinded by the 95% off thing and engage full fomo-mode. Just to see what's happening around and go from there. Edited November 16, 2023 by Kirean 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to see what's happening around and go from there. These videos almost always get misquoted and people bring them up and say they apply to the DAW, so you're definitely not alone 🤣 Always pays to think twice, or be suspicious of anything 95% off. Even though in audio, for some stupid reason it's so prevalent so it's a minefield at times! Nice work with posting so many deals too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon OverSea Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Seems it's a basic version not 32C version. And the attached XT plugins can only be used in the Harrison console. Not sure if Solid Slate will give up the DAW or not as it seems I can't find the product in their new website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, they do tend to do the really cheap bundle with the basic version. I have considered buying it one time for the plugins more, as they work in 32C which I own and it's cheaper than buying them individually. A couple of them I really like too. Simple, but very good. I don't think SSL will, but it's always hard to know for sure. I can more imagine them having SSL bundles and also integrating some of them natively inside Mixbus, which would be really good if it panned out that way (and the price wasn't absurdly high) With Harrison, everything seems like it's slowly being migrated across to the SSL store.. they did have some bumps though.. I could redeem the iLok version of Mastering EQ for free, but at first it never sent the license to my iLok. It's working now though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for sharing the link for the discount though 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bapu Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 (edited) As a reminder, when you buy Mixbus or Mixbus32C all of their XT plugins work without a license (with a very basic interface, looking a lot like Reaper plugins). The license for the XT plugins simply get you the UI skin you see in the ads. No installers needed, all the XT plugins are imbedded in the DAW. Harrison did this so that, let's say, I own all the XT licenses and you don't. If I send you a full project using the XT plugins all across the song you will hear what I heard and you can edit the plugins (using the basic interface) save and send me the project back and I will hear what you changed.

Craig Fowler Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Any thoughts on Harrison? I know it's still not fully clear whether our existing Cakewalk installs will work indefinitely, or what it might cost to keep using the new, supported version, and I'm looking ahead. $80 for a perpetual DAW license is quite appealing - but at this price, Harrison, Reaper, and Presonus' Studio 1 artist are all in that $80-100 range. I like the look of Harrison's workflow, but recall that it was less stable for some users who run virtual instruments (which I do). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reaper is probably better for MIDI/VST instruments though in that price range. I prefer Cubase, but Reaper is a damn good price! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If $80 were my budget I'd go with Reaper. V7 was just droped and a license is good for 2 versions (i.e. 7 and 8 right now) which traditionally is around two years. Harrison is more like 18 month cycles between versions but the upgrade cost is not break the bank level (around $50 IIRC). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only tested about 10 projects and have only had to make some very minor adjustments. You can try all this today as Reaper installs as fully functioning demo from the download page.

Moon OverSea Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Here is Luna free version if you use Mac, also Cubase Element is not a high price which is very stable. So it’s not easy to develope a Daw and earn money right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The advantage of Reaper and Mixbus over Studio 1 Artist is that they have an authorization that you can copy to a new system without trouble, if you once change your computer, i.e. your work will not be a hostage to the developer company (no mercy required then). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris.r Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 I also read that Mixbus can open Protools sessions. Perhaps not everything, those with more advanced routings etc probably not, but some basic should do just fine. The idea was to be able to exchange sessions with Protools users, nice idea fwiw. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
