Harrison Audio D510r Rack w/ Dante & D510MX – 500 Series 10-Slot Power Chassis + 510Dante AoIP Interface Card + 500 Series 10×2 Analog Summing Mixer Module

OVERVIEW

ULTRA-FLEXIBLE HARRISON 500 SERIES SYSTEM

The Harrison D510r is an ultra-flexible ten-slot 500 Series rack system with an expandable analog summing mixer, Dante AoIP interface, or USB interface options. Built on a legacy that shaped the sound of legends like Michael Jackson, Led Zeppelin, and Steely Dan, Harrison continues to push the boundaries of music and audio production. Whether in the studio, on stage, or on the big screen, Harrison’s design philosophy remains focused on delivering the sonic excellence and flexibility that modern artists, producers, and engineers need.

HIGH-PERFORMANCE TRACKING RIG WITH ANALOG SUMMING

Bring the depth and three-dimensional soundstage of Harrison’s analog summing to your studio or live sound console with the D510r rack and optional D510mx mixer card. Add eight 32Cpre+ 500 Series mic pre-modules and build the ultimate portable Harrison tracking rig, or combine with EQ and Dynamics modules and create a custom eight-channel Harrison mixer, all in only 3U. Whether it’s a high-performance summing mixer for adding analog warmth to digital stems, summing together discrete outs from a drum machine and sampler, or accessing console-grade recoding performance in a portable tracking rig – the possibilities are endless and can grow with your production requirements one module at a time.

THE ONLY 500 SERIES SYSTEM WITH AN AoIP INTERFACE

The Harrison D510r is the only 500 Series rack to feature an optional Dante interface for easy integration into live sound production and studio facilities that use the Dante AoIP protocol. When paired with the Dante interface, the Harrison D510 system transforms into a multifaceted 500 Series system, seamlessly integrating analog mic pre’s, dynamics, and EQ processing, or any 500 Series modules into your hybrid workflow.

BUILT TO PERFORM

The D510r is built to endure the demands of both touring and studio environments. Its rugged steel enclosure fits seamlessly into a standard 19” rack, ensuring durability on the road and reliability in the studio. With a built-in power supply that delivers 30% more power per module than the standard 500 Series specification, the D510r provides exceptional stability and ample headroom – allowing you to get the most out of your 500 Series modules.

D510DANTE AOIP INTERFACE

Audio over IP connectivity for live sound and studio. Built around 10 in/14 out, high-performance A/D & D/A converters for pristine audio quality, the D510dante card brings the power of Dante AoIP to your Harrison 500 rack. Easily integrate 500 Series processing into your mix bus, subgroups, or channel inserts on a Dante-compatible live sound console. In a hybrid studio setup, take full advantage of Dante’s flexible routing matrix to send and receive audio seamlessly across your modules.

D510MX ANALOG SUMMING MIXER MODULE

By pairing the D510mx mixer module with the D510r, your system transforms into a powerful 10×2 analog summing mixer. Designed to integrate into two slots of the Harrison D510r 500 Series rack, the D510mx gives you the flexibility to create stereo mixdowns from any of the eight remaining 500 Series module slots, alongside the two analog inputs to slots 9 and 10. With level and pan controls on each channel, plus dual independent headphone outputs with ‘blend,’ get the renowned weight and ‘3D’ depth that Harrison analog summing brings to productions while enhancing your headphone monitoring capabilities.

When used in combination with the D510dante audio interface card, the dual headphone outputs can create monitor mixes from either the direct analog output or from any connected device on the Dante network.

With an almost infinite number of configurations, the Harrison D510 rack paired with the D510mx mixer module can create an extremely powerful (and portable) eight-channel tracking system housed in only 3U – we said it was flexible!
