Page 7: Features Pt. 1
Features Pt. 1 The Harrison 32C console is one of the most famous, highly regarded recording and mixing consoles of all time. It was used on Michael Jackson’s “Thriller”, Paul Simon’s “Graceland” and other recordings by Janet Jackson, AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, ELO, Genesis, Blondie and Supertramp to name just a few. - Page 8 The 32Ci features a range of controls including low and high pass filters. The filters are taken from the 32C console and are extremely high grade tools - extremely useful in treating the signal at source, such as a cutting very low frequencies in a vocal (for example, cutting at 80Hz), or significantly reducing the shimmer of cymbals, (with a cut at around 12-14KHz, for example).

Page 11: Top Panel
Top Panel 1. Inst. switch Switches the "Mic/Instr" 1/2 input to the dedicated hi-z instrument input instead of the XLR/Mic +48v input. 2. Polarity switch Inverts the polarity of the channel’s signal. Generally, this function is used to fix phase cancellation problems. 3. - Page 12 7. LP Button (Low Pass Filter) A circuit that only passes signals below its cutoff frequency, selectable with the LP knob, while attenuating all signals above it. 8. HP Button (High Pass Filter) A circuit that only passes signals above its cutoff frequency, selectable with the HP knob, while attenuating all signals below it.

Page 13: Rear Panel
Rear Panel 1. Power supply connector A +12V DC power supply adapter is required to power the 32Ci (supplied). (Note: You can purchase replacement power adapters from ICON distributors/ dealers near you) 2. USB connector (Type C) Connect it with the provided USB cable (Type C) to your Mac/PC/iOS device camera kit’s USB connector. - Page 14 Note: The Main output level is '+4', intended for 'pro level' speakers. The 'Alternate' output has an output level of '-10', which is better for a consumer system and/or speakers which have a limited trim range and/or are too loud when fed a '+4' signal.
- Page 15 Note: Regarding line-level inputs, (i.e. sources from mixers, CD players and so on), the best option is to use the dedicated balanced line-level input connectors at the rear of the device. Alternatively, it is possible to use the balanced XLR inputs with the PAD engaged. A line- level signal connected to the XLR will have slightly higher noise due to the mic preamp gain.

Page 16: Front Panel
Front Panel 1. Headphone output This output jack accepts a standard 1/4″ stereo TRS headphone connector. Headphone Output 1 is fed by DAW Mix 1/2 (the main output of the DAW). Headphone Output 2 is fed by DAW Mix 3/4, which means you can effectively have two different DAW mixes and PC/Direct blends for each Headphone user, (particularly useful if, for example, Headphone User 1 user is an engineer and Headphone User 2 is a singer). -
Page 17: Hardware Connections
Hardware Connections Connect the 32Ci Analog Mic Preamp with Audio Interface outputs to your amplifier, powered monitors or surround system. The default outputs are channels 1 and 2. You may select an alternate monitoring set-up using Alternate stereo outs (3/4). The main outputs (1/2) are +4 and are suitable for pro level speakers. -

Page 19: Otg Connection
OTG Connection iPhone Android "OTG" connectivity is available via the 32Ci. "OTG" stands for "On-The-Go". It refers to a feature available on many modern smartphones and tablets. OTG allows these devices to act as “hosts”, enabling them to connect and interact with various USB peripherals. The 32Ci’s ‘OTG’ capability allows the user to broadcast on social media, taking advantage of the 32Ci’s superb audio capabilities. - Page 20 device's manufacturer, model, operating system version, and streaming application. Additionally, not all mobile and tablet devices are guaranteed to work with OTG, as some may require specific drivers or have compatibility limitations. Please note that the Apple Camera kit device is required when using the OTG connection.
