The Harrison Sessions

Kristian Kohle vs the legendary Harrison 32C console

Back to the Future of Mixing — Kristian Kohle

Back to the Future of Mixing — with Kristian Kohle on Analog Gear

Mixing on a console is a completely different experience — it’s hands-on, fast, and packed with tone. In this course, Kristian Kohle steps into a hybrid time machine: armed with his laptop, a fresh 16-channel Harrison 32C, and premium SSL and Harrison outboard, he mixes a track from German vintage rock band The Alligator Wine in real time.

You’ll watch him strip the workflow down to its purest form, riding faders, turning knobs, and embracing the unmistakable color of world-class analog hardware — all while proving that this old-school approach still delivers in 2025. The question is: how vibey can he make it? Spoiler: very.

And yes — you get the full journey, unfiltered and free. No shortcuts, no secrets held back. Just a top-level mixer showing exactly how he brings a modern rock track to life using classic tools, from pulling up the first fader to the final in-the-box master.
