Wroc\u0142aw, Poland (June 3, 2026)\u2014The Karol Lipi\u0144ski Academy of Music<\/a> in Wroc\u0142aw has installed a new Harrison<\/a> 32Classic console and integrated it into the academy\u2019s Dante network.<\/p>\n The new 48-channel analog mixing console, supplied by the official distributor in Poland, Commercial Audio, has been installed in the academy\u2019s STM (Studio Technik Multimedialnych). The 32Classic includes a Dante interface and converters that enable it to access sources anywhere in the building and provides patching through four Harrison D510r 10-slot 500 Series racks.<\/p>\n The studio, built in 2012, supports students and faculty and is also available for commercial projects. It has recently begun a revitalization and modernization process. \u201cSTM is designed to bridge education, art and professional production, and our goal is to create a facility that meets high production standards while remaining an effective learning environment\u2014and the Harrison 32Classic is a central element of that vision,\u201d says Dr. Przemys\u0142aw Jarosz, sound engineer\/recording mixer at STM.<\/p>\n \u200b\u201cFor students, the Harrison 32Classic is a unique opportunity to work on a legendary analog console and truly understand how audio behaves in a classic \u2018in-line\u2019 signal path,\u201d he continues. \u201cAt the same time, the system is built for today\u2019s workflows thanks to AoIP (Dante) interface integration. This hybrid approach lets students and engineers learn both worlds: traditional analog technique and modern networked audio.\u201d<\/p>\n The STM studio needs to handle many different musical styles and production scenarios, he says, \u201cSo we wanted to start with a console that has a strong sonic character, especially well-suited to jazz. The sound is warm, thick and powerful. The EQ feels very musical and safe; you can make bold moves without the sound becoming harsh or unnatural. Also, having 48 faders gives us much greater flexibility, both for live mixing of large ensembles from the concert hall and for work in our studio spaces. And the wide armrest is surprisingly important, for comfort and ergonomics during long sessions.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/section>\n\u2022\u00a0Mix<\/em> Music Production NYC 2026 Launches with Early Bird Tickets<\/a><\/h4>\n
