It doesn’t cost or take that much to get your rock star dream going these days and this new studio mic from Blue Microphones is bound to make things easier for you. Blue’s Spark Digital is a studio condenser mic with both USB and iPad connectivity via 30-pin jack.
This digital mic assures the same high-fidelity recording and detailed audio you can get from professional studios. It can be used to record a wide range of sources—from vocals to guitars to drums—and it even comes with a custom desk stand that withstands any disruptive rumblings and vibrations. There are also studio controls on the mic, such as volume and gain controls, as well as instant mute. A zero-latency headphone out is also built in for direct monitoring.
