    SOUND QUALITY

    It is quite effective the preamp impedance very easy to set up the more the more brilliant and c is the function that goes up the air only in the high impedance spectrum c is really the only highlight of this machine (the preamp).
    -Eq works well when were not at the famous Buzz 50hrz, but still quite cold.
    It works well in mono compressor but beware linkage for stereo and do not stick pence a mix in general.
    -Sa would be nice if all c Focusrite calibrated machine is the same way ....
    because these two aillant ISA430MkII I said what can not be calibrated.
    Finally, especially not to make digital options in under risk of big big problems.

    (I would put a score of 6 for the preamp, but for the rest hula without comment)

    OVERALL OPINION

    It sounds a lot but when its march to a ton of design flaws that there are over j orient more to the choice of another brand.

    the ISA110 and a very good machine but I would say not as much n the ISA430MkII
    thank you to China to any gadget pure light ...

    A good machine is a machine that has a single utility.
    and after I had the ISA430MkII remake the error never buy a machine all in one because blah blah blah
