Harrison Consoles' MPC Channel gets a Black Friday deal of 80% off, bringing this post-production channel strip plugin to $29 until Nov 30, 2026.
It is an all-in-one processing suite for mixing and editing audio on film post-production sessions. Every processing section can be monitored at once in a single resizable window.
Signal flow is rearrangeable, parameters are fully automatable, and the RTA displays are advanced.
MPC Channel is available in VST and AAX formats and contains six processing blocks: an 8-band parametric EQ offering extensive real-time analyzer choices, two multi-pole filters with switchable shapes, a 2-band De-Esser derived from the X-Tool DSP in Harrison MPC digital consoles, a 2-band Denoiser that removes background noise, a Compressor with tweakable settings and an optional Program Dependent mode, plus a section for routing, trim and polarity.
The Denoiser is tuned for speech. Its high and low filter cutoffs are preset to the range of the human voice, and the envelope matches the pace of normal speech.
It behaves like an expander for everything outside that range. The HIGH and LOW sliders set the maximum gain reduction per band, applied only to signals below the Threshold. Louder signals pass with variable reduction based on their dynamics.
The De-Esser uses Harrison's own algorithm to tame the harsh sibilance in speech. Two circular markers on the graph, S for the Ess band and H for the Hi band, set Bandwidth and Depth when you drag them.
The Ess band's low cutoff runs from 200Hz to 8kHz. The Hi band covers 2kHz to 12kHz for anything above that.
The compressor is optimised for vocals, and its controls stretch to other jobs too. Ratio runs from 1:1 to 100:1 and Knee from 1.0 to 30.0. Attack runs from 0.1ms to 100ms and Release from 5ms to 500ms.
The order of the six elements can be rearranged by dragging a marker along the chain, which flows top to bottom. Drop one onto another slot and the two swap places.
The Trim fader moves gain by -20dB to +20dB. Because it is routable, it can sit at the input or the output, depending on where you place it. The Polarity switch flips the output waveform 180°.
The RTA is calculated with a Discrete Fourier Transform, which the maker says gives high-resolution data even in the low end. The Equalizer and De-Esser each have their own RTA controls.
Harrison says the plugin is optimised for large-format post sessions, with hundreds of instances running without a CPU penalty.
A free iLok account is needed to authorise the software.
Yes. The MPC Channel Black Friday deal takes 80% off Harrison's channel strip plugin, bringing it to $29. The offer ends Nov 30, 2026.
It has an 8-band parametric Equalizer with RTA, a pair of multi-pole Filters, a 2-band De-Esser, a 2-band Denoiser, a Compressor with a Program Dependent mode, and a Routing, Trim and Polarity section.
On Mac it comes as AU, VST2, VST3 and AAX Native. On Windows it comes as VST2, VST3 and AAX Native. Both platforms are 64-bit only, and the Mac version supports M1.
Yes. Drag an element's marker along the signal chain, which flows from top to bottom. Dropping it on another slot swaps the two. The Trim fader is routable, so it works as an input or output trim.
