For nearly five decades, Harrison Audio has been shaping the sound of iconic records from its headquarters in Nashville, Tennessee. Known for building high-end mixing consoles used by artists like Michael Jackson, Steely Dan, and Led Zeppelin, the company has long been synonymous with analog excellence in both studio and post-production environments. Now, Harrison is pushing deeper into the 500 Series space with the launch of the D510 System—a modular, scalable setup designed to serve as everything from a studio centerpiece to a portable recording solution.
At the heart of the new system is the D510r, a 10-slot 500 Series rack that’s built with durability and power in mind. A statement from the company describes the system as “much more than a 10-slot 500 series rack,” adding that it “can function as a studio centerpiece, console sidecar, high-performance portable solution, live sound production tool, and much more.” Designed for flexibility, it includes an internal power supply that delivers 30% more power per module than the standard spec, giving users more headroom and stability, whether in a studio or on tour.
But the real appeal of the D510 System lies in its modular upgrades. First up is the D510mx, an optional 10x2 analog summing mixer that brings Harrison’s analog depth to any setup. According to the company, “users can experience the depth and three-dimensional soundstage of Harrison’s analog summing in any studio or live sound environment.” With level and pan controls on every channel and dual headphone outputs with flexible monitoring options, the D510mx is equally suited for mix engineers, producers, and live techs.
Perhaps most notably, Harrison has built the D510r to be the only 500 Series rack with an optional Dante AoIP interface. The D510Dante card allows users to integrate their modules directly into a Dante network—ideal for modern hybrid workflows and live sound environments. “Built around 10 in/14 out, high-performance A/D & D/A converters,” the company notes, “the Harrison D510 System becomes a powerful hybrid production tool” when paired with the Dante interface.
A USB + ADAT interface card, the D510usb, is also in the works, further extending the system’s digital connectivity. As the release puts it, the module is “currently in development,” promising future-proofing for users who want both analog character and digital convenience in one rack-mountable solution.
The D510r rack is priced at $899.00, while the D510mx summing mixer is $699.99. The D510Dante interface comes in at $999.00, with pricing for the D510usb module to be announced.
With this launch, Harrison isn’t just adding another product to the 500 Series ecosystem—they’re rethinking how modular gear can function across studio, live, and hybrid workflows. For more information, visit harrisonaudio.com.
