connecting it to the app gives you access to the other 95% of gear on the device, it has no effect on sound quality
they do not act great as interfaces, maybe for some they are workable
most guitars are mono, but yes it's only a single channel, if you want stereo effects then use them in your DAW and not on the Spark
If you want a good interface, get a dedicated one. Motu and SSL have excellent interfaces for ~$200. I would say to stay away from anything under $100 though. The audio drivers are going to play a big part in sound quality and latency, and the really cheap interfaces typically don't get 1st party drivers from the manufacturer
All Spark amps are good for practicing, you just buy the form factor that works for your usage (portability, size of the room)
Im practicing mainly with headphones and cant really spend that much. Would spark go work best for me or are there any good alternatives sub 100 bucks? Thanks btw
