Essential Information About the Harrison D510r 500 Series System
- 10-slot 500 Series chassis with an expandable analog mixer via the optional D510mx card.
- Network integration thanks to the optional Dante AoIP interface, enabling a hybrid studio and live workflow.
- Harrison analog summing providing depth, 3D imaging, and warmth on your stems and instrument outputs.
- Oversized internal power supply delivering 170 mA per slot (+30%), 3U 19-inch steel rack chassis.
A Harrison 500 Rack, Heir to Legendary Consoles
Designed by Harrison, whose DNA has shaped records by Michael Jackson, Led Zeppelin, and Steely Dan, the D510r transposes the brand's console philosophy into a portable 3U format. By combining a 500 Series chassis with an optional mixing card, it serves as a cornerstone in the Harrison range to build a console-level analog chain.
For Studio, Touring, and Post-Production
The D510r is aimed at demanding engineers, producers, and musicians who want to assemble a flexible system: multi-source recording with 500 preamps (e.g., 32Cpre+), summing stems from a DAW, integrating equalizers and dynamic processors, or a portable 3U rig for live and capture. Its robustness and connectivity make it a reliable hub for professional environments.
Features and Innovations
At the heart of the D510r, ten 500 Series slots accommodate your preamps, EQs, and compressors, while the optional D510mx card provides a true Harrison analog mixer for summing and assembling eight channels. The Dante interface (optional D510dante card) allows direct connection of the rack to an AoIP infrastructure, simplifying routing between stage, control room, and workstations. A dedicated
USB + ADAT card compatible with the D510 system is announced as under development, ideal for compact setups.
The 19-inch steel chassis ensures reliability on tour, and the internal power supply provides 30% more current per module (170 mA per slot) compared to standard 500 Series specifications. The result: stability, increased dynamic headroom, and consistent performance, even with power-hungry modules.
