How To Mix Soaring Lead Guitars the RIGHT WAY (Without the Harshness)!


Bring the legendary sound of Harrison's analog heritage into your DAW with the 32Classic Channel Strip. This comprehensive plugin emulates the iconic Harrison 32Classic console, featuring a musical four-band parametric EQ, famous ultra-wide filters, and a versatile dynamics section with three compression modes. With the addition of a Jensen transformer-modeled "Drive" control for warm harmonic saturation, it provides the same professional workflow and sonic character used on some of the world's most influential records.

There’s nothing better than a SOARING lead guitar tone. It can be difficult trying to achieve this without it sounding pokey and harsh. Follow along with Gerry to see how Escalator can thicken up a thin lead guitar.
