Focusrite ISA428 MkII

Focusrite ISA428 MkII 4-Channel Mic Preamp - Four classic preamps with DI inputs and a premium eight channel A-D converter option. ISA series mic preamps have been the producers’ choice on countless hit records over the last two decades.

The ISA428 mk2 provides four of Focusrite’s prestigious transformer-based microphone preamps. It features the same classic circuitry and renowned audio quality found in the original at a new level of affordability. With selectable input impedance, direct instrument inputs and an optional eight channels of high-quality analogue to digital conversion, the ISA428 MkII creates the perfect front end for the discerning recording professional.

The Focusrite ISA 428 Mark II features four additional A-D converter inputs allow eight channels of high-quality conversion, with a dynamic range of 122dB and jitter performance below 250 picoseconds.

Ideal for mic matching or extended microphone creativity. Settings include the ‘Vintage ISA110’ setting, providing the original Focusrite signature sound.

Focusrite ISA428 MkII 4-Channel Mic Preamp Main Features:

  • Four ISA-series transformer-based pre-amps
    • Over the past three decades, ISA mic preamps have contributed to many of the world’s most significant albums.
  • Eight Channel optional A/D converter with 122dB dynamic range.
    • The same cutting-edge analogue to digital converter card used in the ISA828. Four additional ADC inputs allow eight channels of high quality conversion.
  • Switchable Impedance
    • Ideal for mic matching or extended microphone creativity. Settings include the 'Vintage ISA110' setting, providing the original Focusrite signature sound.
  • Four front panel instrument inputs
    • Instant access on the front fascia - no separate DI box required.
  • Dedicated analogue insert points
    • Switchable insert points are featured on every channel, allowing routing (between pre-amp and output) to additional external processing.
  • Variable high pass Focusrite filter
    • Provided on every channel, this is the same filter as featured on the original ISA110 and the legendary Focusrite forte console.
  • Accurate LED meters for every channel
    • Clear metering designed to catch even the fastest and most elusive of transients.
  • Weight: 5.5kg (12.2lbs)
  • Dimensions (W x H x D): 480mm (W) x 88mm (H) x 280mm (D) / 19" (W) x 3.5" (H) x 11" (D)
