You're remind me of Garth from Wayne's World, but like, the 2024 version. And I think you just sold me. This appears to be exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks!
I bought mine before it was released. I love the amp and the battery really does work very well. If you go wireless with the Positive Grid LINK you have such a cool professional gigging Amo. I havE not tried two instruments at the same time but there are so many aPP RELATED WAYS TO TWEAK YOUR SOUND. i LOVE IT AND i SOLD TWO OTHER AMPS ONCE i RECEIVED IT. buY IT AND YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED. I was wondering if you would demonstrate the different sound between setting it standing and on its side?
me too I have the Spark Cab and it's annoying...... in a live situation with a band it's ok but alone in even a home studio all you want to do is turn it off when you're not playing.
I've got the original Spark & it is amazing. At 40W it's almost enough to keep up with a drum set but not quite loud enough. I see Positive Grid just came out with the Spark 2 at 50W and has a Looper. I will probably end up getting this Live amp as it has 150W + all the extra plug ins. These are really great amps even my 70 year old father got 1 last year & he loves to play his music through the Bluetooth. They sound really great. Not to mention the app has endless amounts of effects that truly sound amazing. If you're on the fence about these amps, don't hesitate....you could do a lot worse but it would be difficult to do much better especially at their price point.
The bass is really good on this amp… You can have a little or quite a lot. It’s not as hyped as a JBL speaker, but this is an amp, not the same as a jbl speaker/ pa system
I am not current on today's electronics. I am an old fart. I am looking for something battery-powered and compact that will support a guitar and a mandolin and two microphones. Will channels 3-4 support two microphones? My wife and I like to go to bluegrass jams in our area and play and sing. We are out of touch with electronics for the most part.
It seems this amp can do about anything but the dishes! 😂 So I was wondering to get this, and also use ot as a rehearsal amp, and then I learned about the DI... So I was wondering, if our drummer laid down a drum track, could I play that over the amp via a DAW on laptop and record 2 guitars, 1 bass and vocals over it directly into the DAW through the amp? That would be insane...
Radium Records I'm interested in buying through your link but i don't see a discount code and the link has it at 550 which is same price as everywhere else. Thanks!
Thanks for the video! I just got mine and extra batteries today. Hoping you can help with a stupid question. How the hell do you charge these batteries? Mine didn't come with any sort of charger or adapter. Do you just put them in the Spark Live while it's plugged in?
Why isn't my signal coming out in stereo? I am running my stereo device into the left and right into the left and right inputs properly into the back but my signals are being summed to mono (yes my spark is being placed in landscape/stereo position) If this is normal it's a huge deal breaker and very misleading I've already returned my Spark cab because of its limited mono only capability but truly believed that this was a true stereo system that I could use for running my other guitar modelers through in stereo I sell tons of spark gear at the music store that I work at because of my fondness of it but if this isn't capable of stereo through external inputs I will be encouraging my customers to follow my lead with returning theirs within their return window timeframe Major oversight on positive grids part I seriously hope I'm wrong about this but if I'm not This thing's going back to the store I work at & where I bought it
WHAAAAAT ?!?! Is that small combo looking box 150W ?!? That is insane, I would have guessed like 80W maaaaybe 100W max lol. I want a unit that you can use a few hours on battery though, I am a bit sad that the Spark 40W did not have that battery feature, I think the Spark Mini looks a bit small and I am afraid that it is not loud enough for playing around a campfire with some friends. I guess if my two friends that plays bass and electric guitar like me also bring a Spark Mini each, the sound will be louder and better around a campfire for example. And the Spark Mini should be enough volume to play at home in my appartment, and I also just found out that the Spark mini you can plug into your computer to record stuff into your daw program like Pro Tools, and use with amp simulator programs like Amplitube 5 in your computer ? Now that is just awesome :) I just wish Positive Grid or if there is another company similar that builds a bluetooth amp that sounds a bit louder, has a bit more go than the SPARK MINI but I still can put it in a big bag / backpack and be able to run it on battery for 3-8 hours, if anyone has tips on other bluetooth amps/speakers like the SPARK Mini but that has a bit more ouumpfff please tell me! PS. I am not interested in Blackstars and Katanas that does not have an app with amp simulations and effects like positive grid has, I really need those amp simulators and effect pedals in the amp or in a app.
Can you run the Spark Live out to a mixing board/PA system from the Line Out jack on the back of the amp? If so, do you need to run it through a DI box into the board/PA?
for guitar i can see how it could be used with a live band. All the tech is great but I have doubts that it can be used as a bass amp with a live drummer . 150 watts and 6 inch speakers , even dedicated bass amps / combos struggle with anything less than an 8 inch speaker . I wanna beleive this amp can do it , so many great features ,, any bass players had any experience using it with a drummer ?
No you can’t. Well, you can, but not in stereo. 3 and 4 are conected in one mono a/d converter, so you can input channels 3 and 4, but they wont be separated and reproduced stereo, rather they will be summed into mono. That’s the reason I’m returning mine. So, this is 3 channel amp, not 4 channel.
@@RadiumRecordsHollywoodmine is also in my living room up on a stand with the wireless Link system and I'm blown away by this thing and not even close to done exploring it🤘🫀
I'm a stay at home guitar player. Me playing live shows s a thing of the past, I'm 44 years old. 150Watts would have been useful live, I think it's pretty cool, I don't see myself using it though.
Can You use the out puts for an in ear system? If You are using the app for guitar and You want to switch between sounds (clean/dirty) do You have to fiddle with Your phone ?
yes, PG sells one and Airstep sells one made for Spark that seems to offer even more options. You can switch between presets, start/stop backing tracks, etc. I've only glanced at them, don't really need them since I just play around at home, but on stage they would be helpful. And no cables, all wireless. You have to disconnect your phone/tablet from the amp to make them work, something to keep in mind. But 4 (or 8 for the Live) presets should probably work for most.
So, you reckon the Spark is a toy??? Having owned a few katanas, a THR30W, a Hotone Pulze, a couple of Catalysts (inc the 200 watter), yet to me, the Spark tops the practice/bedroom amps.
Nah, I think this one is a great tool for rehearsals/ small venues (coffee shops, 100-150 people max venues)… It’s powerful and loud, can be dialed in to sound however you want
Got mine Friday. Just getting into it. I’ve been using a Spark Go since it came out. I play multiple instruments. So I will be using it for guitar, bass, electric wind instrument, electric drums, vocals. Also a Bluetooth speaker in my rv. I got the battery as well. Good explanation video btw. Thanks.
have you used the amp as a interface? I have some of their other amps and the USB performance suuuuuuuuucked. latency and audio dropouts. Also you get the most out of their products using the app which now after an update is now crashing. It is all awesome when it all works but look up their other products and prepare for the highs and lows of app based sound production.
My spark is working fine. App and interface. I have a mini, and have been using it as an interface. Yesterday, I took it fishing with me to use as a bluethooth speaker.
I'm in a house, but don't crank it when I practice, so def yes. Sounds just fine, if I were a new shopper and thinking about this one or the 40, I'd go for the Live. Love my 40, but the Live is just a tad larger with so much more to offer and if you want to crank it, you can. The 40 can get "house" loud easily, the Live has your neighbors dancing (or calling the cops), I'm very happy with mine.
just watched @VanceLeeMusic to see if they had anything to offer.. they didn't. you can hear how badly their guitar is set up before you even have to suffer through its poorly played, been there done that, 3 & 1/2 chord crapfest... boomer incel folk is a weird thing.. vance.. get real with your critique these guys wpold laugh at you for being such a dick and stealing their lyrics. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FN3jI6lFmFQ.html
