Homie says, "I'm not going to talk too much..."

Proceeds to drone on and on and on... I have identified him as a chick.

I'd be interested in the regular Spark with the foot switch, though.

Damn, he is still rattling on... :eek2:

I have a spark so the only reason I’d get a mini is for portability, but I’m not a street performer so I don’t really need the battery option. Is the mini mono or stereo? They are good as a Bluetooth speaker so that’s a reason on its own.


I really like my spark. It doesn’t do everything perfectly, I like like the simplicity of the interface. I have a Helix abs I just get too buried in settings and software BS and I just want to play.

I’ve come close to buying the positive grid bias head in the past.. they’re $600ish used on GC… the powered ones at that.. you can control with phone/tablet via Bluetooth.. only downside is that outside of amps and cab sounds… it only comes with reverb I believe..

My spark kicked the bucket a couple of months ago.. I shall get another

Best I can tell, it is functionally identical to the Spark-40, but instead of two 4" speakers and a bass port, it has two 2" speakers and a passive radiator on the bottom of the cabinet. Looks like the baffle is angled outward slightly like some of the old Tweed Fender twins.
It is stereo.
Main operational difference is the only top-panel controls are the 4 presets (on a knob instead of 4 buttons), and guitar and music volume controls.
Personally, I do everything else in the app anyways.

Has anyone managed to get it working in a daw? Windows 10 doesn't pick it up as you have to use ASIO drivers and nothing displays, very frustrating as this is what I bought it for....any help appreciated...as positive grip tech support are pants.

Yep, the spark 40 works fine, it's the mini that doesn't have an ini file drive or installer packager for W10, I work in IT, ASIO for all can't be pushed onto it in device manager and the only time it wakes up is in pair mode but there isn't a driver out there, surely across the globe someone has found a way to get it to work, or am I the only one who wants to? I have mixcraft 9, tried reaper and also pre Sonos 5 (included) but nothing...Google currently is not my friend...
