This video looks to answer a number of questions that have been put to me over the last couple of weeks. The first is to look at how I use the Positive Grid Spark Amp's companion Application (iPhone app) to help me to learn how to learn to play new songs using a looped section.
Another question was how easy is the app to use on my iPhone and then people also wanted to know whether there is help with the strumming patterns, notes, chords to play and more. I hope to answer all of this in this email and I will try to demonstrate playing along to Bon Jovi's 'You Give Love A Bad Name' using both the Spark Practice Amp and also my smaller Blackstar practice amp, of course you could just use headphones into your phone or mobile device.
I show all of this using my iPhone to answer those of you who have asked how usable the iPhone is when an iPad is not available. The video does show the iPad interface so that you can see the difference.
In the video, I run through a demo of jamming along (not very well I hasten to add) to a Spotify track using my Spark 40 Amp and then also without using the Spark 40 Amp and just using my iPhone.
