Can I connect a Blue Spark Mic to my Safire interface?

[organworthyplayer337]

I'm a noob when it comes recording so it's a simple question really

Can I connect a blue spark mic to my Safire pro 14?

And what cables do I need?

Thanks!

Looks like the Blue Spark is a standard balanced XLR connector, and the Safire Pro 14 inputs should accept that, so you just need a standard mic cable (probably comes with one, no?)

That is, take the mic cable plug that looks like the leftmost in this pic:

And plug it into the combo jack on the front of your Safire that looks like this (but without the locking tab):

Oh ok. Thank you for taking the time to explain that. Now it makes sense!
