Focusrite ISA Two – Dual-Channel Vintage-Classic Mic Preamp with Modern Flexibility

ISA Two brings the iconic transformer-based ISA sound to your desktop. Featuring two vintage-style mic preamps with flexible gain, hi-pass filters, variable impedance, and a classic EQ section, it adds rich analog character to vocals, instruments, or track layers.

Vigtigste funktioner

• Two ISA transformer-coupled mic preamps: Vintage console tone with subtle harmonic saturation and deep harmonic detail
• Stepped gain with analog trim control: 0–60 dB gain in 5 dB steps, plus ±10 dB fine trim for precise level setting
• Variable impedance options: Four selectable mic input impedance settings—including classic ISA 110—affect tone and response
• High-pass filter and phase reverse: Switchable 75 Hz low-cut and phase invert on each channel for easier tracking and polarity control
• Analog EQ section: Dual shelving EQ with rock shelf (80 Hz & 8 kHz) and presence shift (1.5 kHz) for tonal shaping without plugins
• Insert points on each channel: Route outboard gear before conversion for creative analog processing
• Direct monitoring outputs: Dual analog outputs plus DSP mix outputs for cue or headphone feeds

Fordele

Whether you're tracking lead vocals, acoustic guitar, or layering synths, ISA Two brings warmth, clarity, and analog polish to every source. The stepped gain and trim provides fast, reliable level control, while impedance and EQ options give nuanced tonal control. Insert points let you engage analog gear before going digital, and direct outs support flexible monitoring—making it a compact powerhouse for serious creatives.
