Blue Microphones Ships Spark Digital

The digital version of Blue’s analog Spark microphone, Spark Digital delivers audio to iPad or a computer, laptop or tablet with USB input.

Spark Digital features the same condenser capsule and components as the original, analog Spark. Spark Digital is also suited for a range of situations: vocals, guitar, drums, podcasts, piano, location recording and more. Spark Digital also features studio controls on the microphone including volume and gain control, and instant mute. In addition, Spark Digital is an iPad microphone offering a zero-latency headphone out for direct monitoring.

Spark Digital also employs a Focus control, providing two different sonic options in one mic. ‘Focus Off’ is designed to capture “crisp, powerful audio with enhanced low frequency sensitivity, ” and ‘Focus On’ to capture “greater clarity and detail for a tighter, more focused sound, ” according to Blue Mics.

Spark Digital comes with a custom angle-adjustable desk stand with built-in shockmount. For each platform connection (USB and iPad), Spark Digital includes a y-cable with an attached, extended female headphone jack for direct monitoring.  Spark Digital iscompatible with iPad (3rd generation), iPad 2, iPad, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S and is recognized for use with any recording app, in addition to driverless connection via USB on both PC and Mac.
