980 SPARK MkII Release

Introducing 980 Spark MkII—an audio plugin that blends vintage pre-amp warmth with modern digital precision and flexibility. Engineered for quick, intuitive workflows in sound design and mastering, it delivers a unique saturation experience by simultaneously adjusting the spectral, dynamic, and harmonic content of your sound. 

Under the hood, the 980 Spark MkII leverages the precision of MIA Compressor ONE, the distinctive character of the Musiqual EQ series, and the power of the 990 Spark Multiband. It offers transparent dynamic control combined with musical coloration -featuring Tube, Class A, or FET character- and rich harmonic distortion.

Its powerful saturation engine features 10 saturation algorithms, ranging from waveshaping to analog distortion emulation. Unlock a vast palette of textures—from subtle warmth to bold, aggressive distortion—with unique control via a XY screen and dedicated filters.

980’s modular design allows you to rearrange the processing modules on the fly, for endless creative possibilities. With 76 built-in presets, and the ability to create your own, 980 Spark MkII can easily fit every workflow, while 4x oversampling ensures exceptional clarity throughout your signal chain. 

A professional-quality tool that puts creative sound shaping at your fingertips.
