I am aware of that. I am not looking for an updated SparkLE as part of the V Collection, but rather for un update of the standalone SparkLE. The user interfaces of the V Collection 5 instruments were quiet a leap forward for high resolution monitors. When working with Spark, the user interface is actually even more important than it is when using the instruments plus Spark - with its step input, mixers, instrument editor and so on, would benefit a lot from an enhanced user interface for high resolutions. It would be a shame if Spark would stop where it is with the small, cramped UI.

Right, ok. You mean an interface change bringing it in-line with all the other apps.

Probably the reason it was pulled form the V collection in the first place was that they did't want to do that. I have Brass from Arturia which has;t been updated in years. I fear that Spark may go that way, or they may update it, who knows, only Arturia I imagine.

Arturia's silence on this issue is deafening, and disheartening

Hi all . I asked Arturia in June about spark and its future but didn't get much response as
All the staff where busy with projects but I was told at the time they did not have time to fix sparks bugs . So yesterday I asked  the original arturia developer who I worked with on the first spark to shed some light on the subject. When I get a reply I will let you guys know . I'm a big fan of spark and spent many hours on it testing and playing . So I know who frustrating the bugs are .
You are aware there was a small update this year so if you missed it, please update.
Also Drumbrute is not a replacement for spark. We may see a better version with better sampling
In the future . This all depends if arturia feels wee the users want to buy it.
Regards

Hi, so an update on spark is that there is no development at the moment for spark, i do not know when or if an update will come so the head of the dev team tells me.  Personally i think Arturia maybe working on spark 3 or something better. As a hint from glen Darcy on a video on the tube discussed. But if they are it will not be out for some time yet . This is only a guess and not inside information.

I see.... thanks for the answer anyway! I don't think they will drop the spark project as well... it's a good hit so far

VERY disheartening. They're coming up with all this new hardware, and ignoring this piece of software which really has potential, but is riddled with bugs.
C'mon Arturia, get on the ball here!!! >:(

reposting in several related threads.

HEY!  :o
I think there may be some progress to report.
On a Facebook post (well, many posts) by Arturia, I've asked what's up with Spark 2, and pointed out that if they're discontinuing it, then why are they still selling SparkLE with the buggy Spark 2 software.
Well, I just got this response -- however, I don't know how legit it is.
It's from a Frederic Brun, who said:
"Hi, you have a legitimate point. We will run a full analysis of the situation and, minimum, correct bugs. I cannot give any delivery date but Kevin Molcard, our director of software, will gather data and build a plan in the next couple of weeks."

So maybe the squeaky wheel got the grease here? Let's hope so.  ;D

Spark 2, i think may be a bit of a sleeper hit, and people are coming around to checking it out finally. I got it in 2014, and there was nobody talking about it at all. Crickets. Maybe people are sick of Maschine. I hope Spark gets some love, or at least a few quick bug fixes. Fix the IOS version jog wheel please!
