Drums are the backbone of rock and pop, and an exceptional drum sound can turn a good song into a great song. Think of songs like "When the Levee Breaks" or "In the Air Tonight" - songs that became iconic in large part due to their drums. However, getting an impactful drum mix is ​​no easy task. This requires a keen ear and the right combination of processors. SSL Drumstrip brings together all the components you need to create the perfect drum mix in one easy-to-use plugin.

With a transient shaper, a dedicated drum gate, high-frequency and low-frequency enhancers, and the classic SSL microphone listening compressor, SSL Drumstrip adds clarity, punch, and weight to any drum recording. And its modular design allows you to swap the order of the processors to adapt to different drum types and drum styles - you can't mix a metal drum the same way as a jazz drum. Powerful kicks, vibrant snares and exciting drum mics, the SSL Drumstrip can do it all.

Bass Flow

A mix won't sound good until the bass sounds good, and Harrison Bass Flow makes mixing bass easier than ever. This comprehensive bass processing suite offers four internally configurable bass processing elements, routing controls, and a master section with inputs and outputs. These four elements - Bass Character, Equalizer, Bass Spectral Compressor, and Chorus - allow you to precisely sculpt the low frequencies to create the perfect foundation to underpin everything else in your mix.

Bass Character is a unique, pitch-centric monophonic EQ. While the equalizer is a classic Harrison 5-band EQ, which includes an output adjustment and a Real-Time Analyzer (RTA) with four operating modes. The Spectral Bass Compressor is just that: a multiband compressor tuned specifically for bass frequencies, complete with key sidechain input. Finally, Chorus richness adds two pitch-shift voices above/below the input signal, plus controls for Detune, Delay, and Dry/Wet Mixing.

Harrison Bass Flow Features:
