been trying to fix a crackling sound using the usb but i used ur audio jack tip and it worked aboslute legend

@AudioTechTV Год назад

The usb recording isn’t the greatest with this. But the line out works great. Thank you for watching. Keep creating! 👊👍

@mathias6423 11 дней назад

I hope you try the new Positive Grid Spark 2 50W that is coming out soon, 50W on battery is sick, It will have double up on everything like proessors, dsp cores, drum machines, built in loopers, new crazy HD amp simulators, good external sound card and a lot more. The Spark 2 50 Watt WILL be a GAMECHANGER 100%

@positivegrid Год назад

Love the video Zane. Thanks!🤘

@AudioTechTV Год назад

Love this little amp! Thank you for checking out the video. Keep creating! 👊👍

@StayPeace69 Год назад

awesome review! can you connect this to a bigger amp via the line out slot?

@Giant_Guitars Год назад

Awesome video, how has this not got more views 🤯

@AudioTechTV Год назад

Glad you enjoyed the video. The views are coming in. :) thank you for watching. Keep creating! 👊👍

@StMalk Месяц назад

Love it. I'll return the noisy crapbox Focusrite Solo Gen4 and use this one instead since I already own it.

@orderd29 Год назад

That's quite an amazing piece of kit. It'd be perfect for someone like me who occasionally plays guitar to record. Have a wonderful festive period, and thanks for all of your content from the past 12 months.

@AudioTechTV Год назад

I was really surprised at how great this little amp sounds. I’m hoping to do some more videos on it soon. One where I use it for all the guitars and bass in a song. Thank you for continuing to watch and comment. I really appreciate it. Have an excellent Christmas (or other holiday). Keep creating! 👊👍

@longneck4717 Год назад

Is there any way to record directly into an iPhone/iPad?

@AlexanderXtcSlayin Год назад

Which method had the best qaulity/results?

@Thunder_Bear_mg Год назад

Are there stereo effects when you using headphones?

@sc_santy 7 месяцев назад

Can I use the USB method to just record the raw guitar (without any amps or anything) so that I can use the VSTs in my DAW? or using the Spark Mini tones mandatory?

@Ions11 2 месяца назад

Does anyone know if I can record a "wet" track as well as a DI track with the Spark amplifier and briefly how to set that up?

@fullyard-art 5 месяцев назад

Did you also try the signal chain - Guitar/Base - Wah WAh Pedal (Cry-Baby for instance) into the Spark Mini and then into the audio interface? What cable do you you exactly use from getting the signal from the small jack 3,5mm into the bigger one of your combo-jack 6,3mm in your audio interface?

@moosicmonkee3592 Год назад

This thing looks awesome! What way has the least latency for recording? I had the big spark and it had some bad latency. I recorded into ableton live if that matters.

@AudioTechTV Год назад

I didn't notice latency with any of the recording methods. If you have an audio interface that gets you low latency then I would recommend either using a mic or the line out but the built in audio interface didn't give me any noticeable latency. Thank you for watching. Keep creating! 👊👍

@eric-generic89 Год назад

do you think I can use it as an amp emulation pedal? like using the line out into a mixer?

@AudioTechTV Год назад

You can do that.

@nebula_M42 Год назад

great video. quick question please: does this amp have enough input gain to record with an sm57? like some cards have a dedicated input for mics that boost the signal, will it work fine with a SM57? thank you

@AudioTechTV Год назад

It’s just a guitar amp and only has an instrument input in it. There isn’t a mic preamp so connecting a typical dynamic XLR mic to it wouldn’t be a good idea.

@wighatsuperreggie 5 месяцев назад

@@AudioTechTV I think they just mean, if you put an SM 57 in front of it, will it get enough signal?

@AudioTechTV 5 месяцев назад

@@wighatsuperreggie it definitely has enough output gain for an sm57 which is simalar to the mic used in the video. But the question was asking about input gain.

@Tremmor500 Месяц назад

now comes me trying to figure out how to make those recirdings sound good

@deanzo1234 3 месяца назад

What about recording on logic on a Mac

@wighatsuperreggie 5 месяцев назад

Am I the only one that gets major latency when I try to record directly into a computer? I’m using a Mac into logic with a spark go. Is there less of a latency issue with some of their other models?

@user-jn9he6fv6n 5 месяцев назад

Can you use the headphone as a line out? like listen to the amp sound through amp, but get clean signal out?

@markthornemarmaduke 2 месяца назад

Answer is in the video

@louaguado995 Год назад

I do a lot of direct recording with my Zoom g3xn. It has 16 amps, 12 cabinets, and 2 microphones with a blend knob to pick one or another or both. Can also use USB direct or headphone/line out into an interface. The only downside is once you've recorded you're stuck with that sound. It's more versatile using amp sim's in your daw for more variety

@hockeycousinspodcast9503 Год назад

The amp can be used to record on garage band too with the usb method?

@AudioTechTV Год назад

If you are using Garageband on your Mac computer, yes you will be able to use this through USB with it. If you're using Garageband on an iOS device then no.

@austinthevox Год назад

I have this amp and was wondering what driver you downloaded to use it as an audio interface? TIA

@@AudioTechTV thanks you so much!

@gerardbrandenbourger5440 Год назад

It would be nice if there wore an video on how to record the spark go with the Iphone.

@AudioTechTV Год назад

Either use your iPhone’s built in mic or connect a mic or audio interface to your iPhone and record the amp like you would with any other amp.

@Bigjuergo Год назад

2:30 is it working like an external soundcard in the pc?

@AudioTechTV Год назад

Yes. When connected like this it works like a sound card. You can have all of your audio run through it if you want and also record the input of it. Here is a video on how I set it up ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zHui3W2DnXI.html

@heikkihakkarainen9935 Год назад

Can you use it as audiointerface with ios or mac?

@AudioTechTV Год назад

With a Mac yes not with iOS though.

@benjaminthomas5446 Год назад

could you make a video on how to use the spark mini as an audio interface thanks

@AudioTechTV Год назад

I'll try to do something up quick for it. Thank you for watching. Keep creating! 👊👍

@helmanfrow Год назад

For recording, a dedicated stereo line output would have been better. Or TOSlink. I'm unlikely to switch audio interface drivers in the middle of a busy recording session. Fun toy, though, otherwise

@AudioTechTV Год назад

Then why not use the stereo line out that it has built into it already? If you’re in the middle of a recording session I don’t think you would need to have your headphones and a line out connected to the amp at the same time as you would likely be using your headphones connected to your interface.

@helmanfrow Год назад

@@AudioTechTVYes, I suppose you're right but I get fussy about impedances and such. Maybe it would sound fine.

@jlepre752 Год назад

Can't you go headphone jack direct to a channel on a mixer and gig it?

@AudioTechTV Год назад

Yes you can do that.

@jlepre752 Год назад

@Audio Tech TV thanks! I have tried it with the 40 and it was a little hot. I have a mini coming tomorrow and I have a gig that night. I'll give it a try

@champovilla Год назад

using USB we cannot record in stereo, right ?

@AudioTechTV Год назад

No. It’s only mono through usb so if you want to record with some of the stereo FX you should connect it with the line out to a stereo input.

@music-writinglife1813 10 месяцев назад

Let me get my Cookie Monster Hand Puppet out ...LOL

@AudioTechTV 10 месяцев назад

I’d prefer an Ashy Slashy puppet. Lol

@thepianocoverman1800 Год назад

Not for a keyboard?

@AudioTechTV Год назад

You can probably plug a keyboard into it and get some cool sounds if you like running your keyboards through guitar gear.

@dr.stevenpennym.d.3241 Год назад

If you forgot to tell your audience, theres lotta tweaking to a lot of stomp boxes…

@AudioTechTV Год назад

The video was about recording the amp not about tweaking any settings. Just recording.

@darbyogill6006 Год назад

I bought this to amplify my acoustic uke as I play Irish trad and need a loud clean tone.This amp does NOT allow a loud clean tone as the Gain controls the volume .Not suitable for clean acoustic instruments like classical guitar or uke,mandolin.Great if you want to sound like Hendricks or Van Halen

@Michael-ow8wi Год назад

Dude, beginners do not know what "set it up in your DAW" means. So at this point I am stuck. Explain it to me like i'm 4 and have no experience.

@AudioTechTV Год назад

I’m not sure where you got the idea that this was a beginners tutorial for how to set it up in a program. The intention of the video was just to show that you could record it 3 different ways. Positive Grid does have info on their website on how to do this. Maybe I’ll make a small tutorial on how to.

@Michael-ow8wi Год назад

@@AudioTechTV So if I have an iPad, I also need to use a computer to record if I am not just mic'd up? I just want to record what I am playing and see exactly how to do that.

@AudioTechTV Год назад

@@Michael-ow8wi I think you can record the spark mini in GarageBand on your iPad. But you might need to connect it by USB to the ipad. I haven’t tested this but I’ll give it a try when I get back to my studio.
