Focusrite Vocaster Two Interface Review / Explained

Today I walkthrough, explain, test and review the new Focusrite Vocaster Two which is a podcaster's interface. I compare the preamp to 18i20 to see if there's a significant difference or not, test the SM7b on this interface, and walk through all the presets, processing, and software.
