Hi guys, I made a lot of tests lately to compare the ISA and the 710's preamps. Altought I found a few ways of making the 710 sound good adding to the compressor, the simplicity of the ISA is still a strong side that push me toward selling both units I have and get a ISA828.

Hi,

I know this is a pretty simple and basic question that I should know, but I don't, so here I am.

I own a Focusrite ISA428 which I have been using for a couple of years now. I am just in the midst of setting up a new patchbayand I am starting to run a little thin on available connection points.

hell everyone,

this may be a dumb question...but I can't figure this out. Im looking at purchasing 2 ISA 428's w/ the A/D card.

Looking to increase my inputs to accomADATe more live recordings. Currently have a Focusrite ISA428 into a Motu2408MKIII and we're looking at adding the Onyx 8 channel pre. Wondering if anyone here has experiece with it and how it might mate with the ISA.

Will most likely be used heavily to mic drumkits and some other instruments.

Respect...

Hi!

I’ve finally got my business running quite nice and euros are coming in… it’s time to spend it all before my girlfriend wastes it on shoes! ;)

I have a small studio where I do mostly commercials and tv-themes. Since I also want to do some rock stuff that I can’t record in my “closet”, I’ve decided to build a mobile recording rack.

First, I want to reiterate what many have said about this forum...it does indeed kick much ass. I've read so much about so many of you, I feel as if I know some of you quite well just from checking out your comments, suggestions and (minor) arguments...!

Hi, i want to know the real quality of the isa 428 converters, with which other converters could it be compared to? Are they similar or better than the Digidesign Hd Series? Please if anyone of you have used it let me know your opinion.
Thanks!

You can see in my previous post, (Dead Link Removed), why i've chosen this option.

I am having a hard time getting my head around the routing w/ the digital card installed, can someone please explain?

alright, got my ISA 428. Loving it. Now i'm looking for a compressor, or possible a channel strip with a very good compressor in it. I'm looking for something that will give my my drum samples major phatness. I was thinking maybe a thick Neve type piece to complement my ISA 482.

well, I have heard really good things on both of these units and have never heard anyone compare them to each other. They are both 4 channel mic preamps, the 428 being solid state with the optional 8 channel ADAT out ($1699, $599 for optional ADAT a/d), and the VMP-4000e is tube with just analog outs ($1899). I know they have different "colors of sound", but is one better quality?
