Preamp Quality
Customers have generally positive opinions about the preamp quality of the Focusrite ISA One Classic Single-channel Mic Pre-Amplifier. They praise its ability to add warmth and professional sound to recordings, with some users noting its versatility for various instruments such as bass guitar and vocals. However, a few customers express disappointment that it is not available in a full 1U rack version and lacks TRS output.

Highlights
Quality
Very very solid, and the high pass filter is soooooooooooooo usefull i cant live without it.
Its a pro preamp and never think its not, the di is very handy and can actualy be used for stereo recording with the preamp and di input.
(input another preamp out to di input to the optional a-d out)outs are now stereo.
- i wish they made this unit in a full 1u rack unit with all the same inputs/outputs- no trs output.
Price
You should spend as much on your pre amp as you spend/spent on your mic.
Competitiveness
This is a step up from my other cheaper preamps.
But if you are looking to take the next step after using that behringer or mackie mixer, i can't think of a better choice for the money.
Other than that , the isa one and isa two sound the same and you get 2 preamps in one unit.

The isa one has a separate di input and separate di output so you could record a vocal and direct in guitar to 2 different tracks
