Yan Filiatrault Posted October 21, 2019 Posted October 21, 2019 I'm particularly interested in their bulk pricing... 1

Yeah, I understand.. Tough decision...
Brian Walton Posted October 22, 2019 Posted October 22, 2019 They make no qualms about who it is designed for. If you are running a large format video production house, $1500 is in the realm of Izotope RX Advanced which you already also have. Would be interesting to know if they did open the market more to say $200 per seat if they would actually make more money or not than with the strategy of only going after studios/production facilities.
e-cue Posted October 22, 2019 Posted October 22, 2019 Apple and Oranges. UAD's AMS NEVE DFC CHANNEL STRIP is literally a tenth the price right now, and Neve (even AMS NEVE) is arguably a more revered brand than Harrison.

UAD's AMS NEVE DFC CHANNEL STRIP is literally a tenth the price right now, and Neve (even AMS NEVE) is arguably a more revered brand than Harrison. Requires a UA interface to run, so that is also apples to oranges, especially considering the price of any of the non entry level options a production house would want to use. I agree that I'm not sure Harrison has the clout to charge that and get a bunch of takers, the market will quickly dictate if I'm off base.

You can get a UAD Satellite for $1200 new + the Neve DFC for $149, bringing the total to around $150 cheaper than the Harrison. Does the Harrison include DSP? If so, and if you could "Instantiate 100's of MPC Channels on a system to recreate the Harrison MPC console processing experience in Pro Tools and/or across an Avid control surface.", this would be something to pounce on. Also, every post house I know/interface with has the uad platform- literally everyone of them. Let's take UAD out of the equation. Waves SSL G channel: $39 McDsp McDSP 6050: $50 Wave Arts Track Plug: $30 Brainworx Console N: $99 Steven Slate VMR: $149 ... or for oranges - $1500 would get you access to all their plug in's for a decade (or longer depending on the promo). $1500 isn't even in the ballpark. Large post facilities have budgets, but they aren't stupid.
