Originally developed for the Harrison MR3 studio console, the MR3eq stands out as one of Harrison’s most popular EQ designs, renowned for its punchy, smooth sound, and powerful sculpting capabilities. Introduced in 1981, the Music Recording 3 (MR3) console rapidly became the preferred tool for numerous leading engineers and studios worldwide, helping to create some of the most iconic albums from the 70s and 80s. Like all Harrison production tools, the MR3 EQ delivers the vibe to inspire artists and the precision for engineers to excel.
The MR3eq is a powerful three-band parametric equalizer that features High-frequency 6 dB/octave Shelf bands, which can be switched to a 2nd order Bell response with Harrison’s renowned proportional Q. The Mid-band offers a continuously variable Q, while a separate High Pass Filter section includes a 3dB corner frequency. The MR3eq’s flexible design and powerful sculpting capabilities make it a versatile tool that enhances a wide array of source materials, proving equally effective in both tracking and mixdown scenarios.
