Blue Microphones Spark

Blue Microphones announced Spark, a cardioid, solid-state condenser microphone, with a Focus control offering two sonic signatures.

Spark features Blue’s condenser capsule, designed to deliver “low noise, high efficiency, and rapid response” in any recording situation.

Here is what the company has to say:

“The sonic signature of Spark is crisp and powerful with an enhanced low end. To achieve a more present sound, Blue introduces the Focus control, which when selected results in a tighter, more direct and focused sound.”

Spark utilizes custom-matched circuitry, and the circuit design also pairs Spark’s condenser capsule with a phantom-powered outboard amplifier to drive the capsule with linear control and accuracy.

Spark comes inside a wooden box, with a custom shockmount and metal pop filter. This microphone package also provides a detailed recording guide showing setup and recording tips for a variety of instruments and vocal sounds. Spark comes with a three year manufacturer’s warranty.
