: VST, ASIO
SPARK LE supports VST Plug-Ins and the Steinberg ASIO interfaces for maximum
compatibility.
Most current digital audio cards are supplied with
ASIO drivers
and all the big names in
Plug-Ins make VST Plug-Ins! Both these formats are quickly becoming standards on the
Macintosh, and are already supported by the likes of Emagic, Opcode, Cakewalk – and of
course Steinberg – on the host application side and by Sonorus, KORG, RME, MOTU,
Lexicon and many others on the card side.

SPARK LE integrates the whole editing, processing and mastering process into only two
windows:The Browser View and the Master View.
In the
Browser View
, you’ll find the project file database, the audio editor and the Play
List – all at one glance and with a fully customizable view.Your window setting is saved
with the Project file.
The
Master View
includes all the realtime processing and mixing – with the unique
FXmachine that enables you to route up to 4 Plug-Ins into the signal path, the high-resolu-
tion master faders and export features to apply the processing to your files permanently.
Thanks to this unique approach, you won’t be surfing the menus desperately looking for
key-features.They are all right where you need them!
