Description of Spark Digital:

SPARK DIGITAL

THE STUDIO MIC FOR iOS, MAC AND PC
The award-winning Spark Digital is the first studio microphone for your iPad, iPhone and laptop. Featuring the same hand-tuned cardioid condenser capsule found on our heralded Spark studio mic, Spark Digital is perfect for vocals, podcasts, guitars, pianos, brass, woodwinds, drums, and just about anything else that you can throw onto the fire.

Spark Digital features handy onboard headphone output and volume control—making it a complete rig for on-the-go recording. And with Focus Control, Spark Digital gives you the sound of two different mics at the push of a button.

GET THE SOUND AND FLEXIBILITY OF TWO MICS IN ONE
Why settle for one mic when you can have two with Spark Digital? Focus Control changes the capsule voltage and completely alters the sonic character of the mic—giving you the sound of two mics in one. Normal mode heightens low-frequency sensitivity for robust, defined bottom end, while Focused mode accentuates mids and highs for ultra clear, detailed recordings. Switch between them to suit the vibe of your recording and create intricately layered tracks.

FOCUS ON YOUR PERFORMANCE
Spark Digital comes packed with convenient workflow features that keep your mind on the tunes, not the tech. Completely eliminate distracting delays with zero latency monitoring. Adjust and monitor recording levels—such as input gain, headphone volume, and instant mute—with an all-in-one control and multi-colored LED meter.

EVERYTHING YOU NEED
Spark Digital turns your iOS device into a true mobile recording studio. Set up in seconds with the included adjustable desk stand. Prevent unwanted bumps vibrations, and other noises with the built-in shockmount. Accurately record and playback tracks in real-time. Spark Digital even includes y-cables for easy connection to any device. See, we told you it’s everything you need.
