very helpful video for me having bought a new spark amp recently and i am learning to master all the functions it has to offer this video has made this a lot easier thanks.
Great video. It's a same you can't have your own list instead of saving to 'Bass' genre to put all songs presets you like in. Favourites is good but I don't think you can rename the presets to your choosing so in time will forever be scrolling through them to find the one you want. Only just had my spark and loving it so can't complain
Ok I get you can download tones to the amp, Is it possible to download the tone to your -hone/tablet so you can call it up from the app without logging into the tonecloud? Sort of build your own library?
I dont have the amp yet i just ordered it, but im assuming the 4 presets on top of the amp is where you can save the ones you like without having to log into the app
@@throlyhd9448 Yeah I get that, You can save a different patch into each of the seven different switch places of the channel knob at the end as well, But what i wanted to know was if it was possible to save the patches from the cloud into your phone or tablet, so you can call them up without having to log on, If you are stuck like me in an area with unreliable internet its a real pain in the bum to have to keep trying to log on all the time only to lose the connection half way through.
@@andrewking7919 or when PG dumps support for the app, you will be left with more than the four presets! that is the big reason i am still on the fence as to buying a Spark
So i recently got the mini and follwed his steps. It does NOT seem to save/override the default tones on mini..We should be able to not have spark app on and still listen to mini with overwritten tones, no? When i shut off app and just go to mini its the same default tones and the ones i saved arent there.????
I am trying to get the app to work on my laptop because I don't like it on my phone. So far, I can get some of it, but I can't controll the amp with it.
@@sparkamptutorials2169 So, what are we hearing on the video? Is there any " coloring" done by the mic for a better sound, or is the amp sound that good on it's own?
@@CShady I don’t do anything to the audio on my videos. But I am not sure about others. I try to capture it as close to the original sound as possible. I will try a sort of A/B sound test to compare. I’ll let you know the results. Good question!
That wouldnt make much sense, the settings are going to be wherever the uploader thinks it should be for that song or artist or style, having everything set dead flat you might as well not bother with the tones at all, just use the basic amp settings and dial it up yourself
Hi, after I've connected to Spark and try and access Tonecloud I have to login and I've never been successful. It always says Login failed try again later. Could you help? Thanks for a really informative and useful channel.
@@sparkamptutorials2169 Thanks. The cables they gave me didn't plug into my Ipad, then I just connected to my Droid phone using Bluetooth and it works great.

Can't find my downloaded tone. Using Andriod Device. I save it..at 3:49 in the video my display has no drop down menu? Have no idea where to find it.

Yeah, I wish they had one or more custom lists you could create and maintain for that purpose.

@@andrewking7919 OH I understand now, That would be great if its possible.... I hope someone knows if you can or not

Thanks for this, what happens if the ToneCloud patch has purchased pedals that you haven't purchased - can you still use the patch?
Thanks for this video, it was informative and helpful!

Is android and Ipad worked the same?
I am trying to get the app to work on my laptop because I don't like it on my phone. So far, I can get some of it, but I can't controll the amp with it.
Super helpful! Thanks.
Do you know how to download and connect the spark amp app using a laptop computer??
Sorry, it is only possible to use the app on a mobile device (android or iOS).
Ist there any way to see all presets made by positive grid?
I think you can use “positive grid” as a search term, but I will look into this. Good question!
clearly explained...thank you
Getter ton settings
thanks was wondering how to download tones
Why are some people using mics in front of the amp? Are they listening through monitors or just the amp?
Probably for recording with their existing interface and/or DAW. I use a mic that picks up both my voice and my amp for my UA-cam videos.
@@sparkamptutorials2169 So, what are we hearing on the video? Is there any " coloring" done by the mic for a better sound, or is the amp sound that good on it's own?

I downloaded mine on my phone will it be about the same
Yeah, the Spark app is similar on the iPad as it is on the iPhone, just alot smaller. You might have to scroll quite a bit more around on the screen.
OK, after downloading the sound you want, what should the actual amp settings be. Should it be on clean with everything at 12 o'clock?
That wouldnt make much sense, the settings are going to be wherever the uploader thinks it should be for that song or artist or style, having everything set dead flat you might as well not bother with the tones at all, just use the basic amp settings and dial it up yourself
Thanks for this. Do you know what the numbers are on the download buttons?
It’s the number of times that tone has been downloaded by ToneCloud users.
The app still needs work done on it. I can't heart my favorite songs/videos from UA-cam in smart jam.
Hi, after I've connected to Spark and try and access Tonecloud I have to login and I've never been successful. It always says Login failed try again later. Could you help? Thanks for a really informative and useful channel.
Are you logging in with a positive grid account or Facebook? I’ve only ever used a Facebook account so I’m not sure.
@@sparkamptutorials2169Thanks for your reply, I'm sorted now.

Every video I see skips steps in the initial setup and connecting amp to Ipad. Where is a good video for this?
I have a couple of videos for troubleshooting but nothing covering initial setup. That is a great idea though! I will work on that.
