Perhaps the best new element of Spark is just a couple of clicks away, where you can start routing and modulating the signal within the drum machine to crazy extents, on a deep modulation page. Spark can be used as a sequenced beat maker, paired with a useful collection of effects built around an XY window. The second version of this software gives Spark deeper integration with the Arturia Spark hardware, and there is a plethora of excellent kit sounds that you can change to your liking on the studio page. I found that the Spark 2 drum machine is also a standout for me. There’s faint chance of me ever owning those keyboards, and I loved scrolling through the presets, getting lost creating my own sounds. ![]() I absolutely love the CS-80 and Jupiter emulations.

The collection is way too big and deep to review each instrument in proper depth. ![]()
