10 GETTING STARTED

OPEN ARCHITECTURE: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.

THE USER INTERFACE CONCEPT

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!
