Solid State Logic Does It Again Even If They're Brittish...

I originally intended to purchase a Focusrite ISA428. I was convinced by Luke to get the SSL. When I plugged in my Roland Fantom to the DI amp I was blown away. The 3rd harmonic distortion adds a sonic character to your signal that is indescribable. I've used SSL 9000 J series boards before & the DI on the Alpha almost sounds better than the 9000 J DI to my ear. Thanks Luke, SSL, & sweetwater.

  4 Channel Magician !!!

The only reason i did not give this 5 stars is cause I only have about 4yrs experience in audio recording, and have not tried half of everything out there (just yet).
I call this my 4 Channel Magician cause i can make this thing sound clean and straight, or fat and warm. I also own an LA-610, and i can get that same grit sound from this unit as i can the LA-610. But the thing that impressed me the most is the fact that i can make an "OK" mic sound like a well defined solid-state, or a warm tube.
I will never regret purchasing this unit. At $424 a channel, you got to be crazy not to consider this unit.
