The 65-watt amp has four channels. The first two are equipped with 36 amp models and 50 effects for guitars, bass, and vocals. They also have eight customizable presets. Channels three and four are stereo input channels for keyboards, drum machines, and other instruments.
For connectivity, the Spark EDGE has a stereo line out, dual XLR and 1/4-inch combo inputs, two 1/4-inch inputs, MIDI in, Bluetooth, and even a USB-C port. Other features include a built-in drum machine, Spark AI for AI-powered tone suggestions, Smart Jam backing tracks, Aut Chords, and more.
