This is a pretty nice sounding unit from Focusrite. Keep in mind that this product is from their "Platinum" series, not their high-end units. That being said, the Class A mic pre in this unit sounds very good - transparent with low noise. The VU meter is a nice touch, but the back-lighting and color make it difficult to read - it looks cooler than it is. If you need to add a pre to your rack, take a listen to this one before spending too much on something else.
Man, this unit does exactly what I want. I was having trouble with vocals cliping because the singer in my band has a wide dynamic range of singing. This does wonders, The eq is basic but very nice especially in adding some lower end. I run my audix i5 through it when i track drums and it sounds wonderful. The pre on this is crisp and full bodied, has everything you could want out of a pre/compressor.
I think this unit looks nice, with it's brushed steel face and light up blue VU meter. It's very solidly built and just feels great to the touch. The knobs are all rubberized so they feel good. The compressor works great for vocals...I squash them pretty good and can't hear the compressor. Much better than any built-in preamp with the budget firewire input boxes. My vocals improved greatly with this unit. I must admit that the VU meter is pretty hard to read because it's so dark, even when lit, but I use my metering on my DAW and haven't had any issues yet.
