I have a Spark 2 amp.So to get it set-up is a bit of a trouble but nothing show stopping. You have to use the App, Fun fact is that if you use the App on your phone and ALSO on an iPad you have to transfer tone to the cloud in order to share them. It just does not magically happen. When setting up the Spark X just have some patience and you will get it. Also they made it really hard to easily see the On/Off and Bluetooth connect buttons on the back of the unit. The On/Off is recessed too making it more difficult to find and use. I know you just have to get used to it but let's make it easy and obvious.I have an Expression Pedal from Boss that I used with my Katana 100 and it works with the Spark X! I use it as a volume pedal which is a must actually for live playing.The Spark X toggles thru each A and B banks, selects one of the four presets AND lets you toggle thru each 'stomp box' for each preset. It is really nice and works. You may have to look at your phone to watch the toggling action to keep track of where you are. There are also those plastic covers which help.It takes about a day or more to fully charge when you get it at first. If you are going to play somewhere it is best to recharge the night before.I really like the footprint of it. Very compact and even with size 13 shoes you can press the buttons. For my set-up I basically only have 2 presets that I use - even though you can have 8 of them.You cannot tell which preset you are on though. Use the B button to move thru presets, but you have to reference your app to know where you are aside from hearing it. The A button toggles thru the first 4 presets and the second set of presets.For the Spark 2 to get it going after setup you have to turn on Spark 2, turn on Spark X, long press Spark 2 Bluetooth button, then load the app on your phone/ipad.A bit expensive but it seems to be worth the cost. Glad I have it.

Perfect pedal for my Spark 2

Got it to use with a Spark Mini. Was especially interested in the expression pedal inputs and for volume pedal functionality. Also, the thing I love about the Spark Mini is the portability, and thought this would be a nice addition.However, come to find out with the Spark Mini and Go, not only do you have to always use the app to pair the 2, you have to have your phone or tablet open the whole time. If you close it, the pedal and amp lose connection, and once you open the app back up, reconnection is really hit and miss. Also the app seemed to crash or become unresponsive quite a bit. It was already kind of sketchy just pairing with the amp, but this just added a ridiculous layer of complexity and unreliability.Also be advised, the "volume pedal" literally just controls the master output volume on the guitar channel. Toe up is all the way down, toe down is ALL the way up, with no way to adjust the range. It operates completely independent of the actual volume knob on the amp. In addition, since it controls the volume only at the end of the signal chain, it's completely useless for volume swells.Also. not including the wah pedal add on for a pedal with a dedicated wah pedal input is pretty crappy and greedy... again, completely useless without an additional purchase.If I had been aware of these limitations, I definitely would not have bought it, will be sending it back.

I almost didn't purchase the Spark x control due to the negative reviews. Glad I did. I think many didn’t read or understand the instructions. Spark x DOES connect to my Spark 2 without the app easily. If you use the app, you have more options to program Spark x. Using Spark 2 without having Spark x control is annoying. My only complaint so far is the price. Charge Spark x fully (overnight) before using and after turning on connect to app and update firmware, which was easy and wireless. Using Spark x, in my opinion, is mandatory to enjoy the Spark 2 experience. I used my Android phone which was flawless. After I try my iPad, I will update my review.

Just received a Spark 2, and ordered this thru Amazon, so I can't speak for durability, but it syncs up fine and works, with or without the app, so far. The battery takes a long time to charge, (about 3-4 hours on a fast charger), but if it lasts as long as they claim, that shouldn't be a big deal. Seems relatively well built, but will see how many times I can stomp on it, before I break it.

This little pedal works just right, but I think it works better on carpet tho. I don't have any in my space, can feel the pedal slips a little. I will stick some rubber feet maybe.

This would be a 5 star product if it just works when you turn it on.I don't know if there has been an update or not, but the thing is really annoying to use. You have to connect your amp and then the pedal to your phone. If you lock the phone screen, the pedal ceases to function. Its an annoying extra step and sometimes the app crashes while you're fiddling with tones.On top of that sometimes the app just wont connect and you have to force close it and then start again. I just want to play my guitar! So basically I never use this thing because its fiddly and annoying.It would be a great idea to check and see if these issues have been fixed through updates before your buy unless having a pedal for your Spark is something your absolutely require.

Built solid and sturdy to last a long time. I use it with my spark 40 amp. It is fun to use and makes switching patches very easy. The Buttons are programable through the app and I also connected an expression pedal for volume control. My only dislike is you have to use the app to connect it. I think the spark live and Spark2 are the only amps it will connect to without the app.

The Spark Control X pedal is a great addition to my Spark 2 amp. It’s compact and well built. It’s easy to set up. I bought it to improve the looper function and it does that very well.

Das Spark X ist gut verarbeitet.Die Verbindung zu den Spark Verstärkern ist sehr einfach und die Bedienung leicht.Der Wechsel zu den eingestellten Effektgeräten und Verstärkern in der App funktioniert sehr gut und schnell während des Spielens.Insgesamt kann ich es empfehlen.
