110dBA Dynamic Range
More than 3 times quieter, 2 times lower distortion
Maximum Dynamics in Real World, Low Harmonic Distortion, Low Noise
Engineering goal of newer SPARTAN CUE was to expand dynamic range and to reduce harmonic distortion and noise level than previous hardware. By upgrading many of discrete components and improving hardware design we had to be able to achieve satisfied audio quality. Now you are able to experience 110dBA excess Dynamic Range with extremely low harmonic distortion at all of analog I/O channels of SPARTAN CUE. All these quality improvement allow you to monitor and record your sound precisely. SPARTAN CUE presents the best computer music environment.
Asynchronous USB Audio Class 2.0
All digital technology begins with perfect analog technology
In digital audio systems, clock jitter is a major cause of sound distortion. When using the old USB Full-speed (1.1) connection standard, various jitters result in significant sound distortion when recording and playing back the original audio, even though it might be high quality ADC/DAC. This is because the audio clock system has a significant amount of noise and is dependent on a computer clock that is not accurate. To solve the effects of these kinds of jitters, the Audioprobe engineers focused on solving two major technical problems.
First, SPARTAN CUE connects to the computer through an asynchronous method with the USB Audio Class 2.0 standard. This allows SPARTAN CUE to remain unaffected by the computer and use a completely independent audio clock to operate the ADC/DAC, enabling it to perform more accurate sampling.
Second, we focused on designing a stable power supply to reduce the clock errors that occur inside SPARTAN CUE. Supported by a highly reliable power supply, the audio sample clock is capable of up to 512 times the sampling rate while operating with minimal errors.
A digital signal made up of bits of data can be converted to an analog signal without jitter distortions and vice versa. This allows you to experience clear and realistic audio.

High Fidelity Microphone Preamplifier
Clear sound without noise ? close your eyes and judge for yourself
From general dynamic microphones to expensive top condenser microphones, SPARTAN CUE’s microphone preamplifier can clearly convey the characteristics of any microphone to which it is connected. Our preamplifier is made up of parts that have undergone a strict selection process.
It was not only developed by Audioprobe’s skilled engineers, but also tested by experts with decades of experience in the field of recording. Close your eyes and experience sound that rivals the very best microphone preamplifiers.
JFET High Impedance Input
Helping guitarists find the right tone
Check out the video of the guitarist Hamm’s recording with SPARTAN CUE. See the big screen
Many audio interfaces have average instrument inputs that are neither poor nor exceptional in quality. We began from scratch with the goal of implementing a sound that can satisfy guitarists.
We use JFET devices to create a high impedance analog preamplifier with a range of up to 5 mega ohms. It captures high quality sound from normal single pickup electric guitars to bass guitars and even sensitive piezo pickup guitars. This enables you to feel the rich textures of the tone.
8-step Input Level Meter and Operating Status LED
Quickly check the operating status
An accurate dBFS meter mounted on the input channel is very useful when setting recording levels. Real-time monitoring of the input signal allows you to quickly set the appropriate level. For digital recording, the level meter can be monitored to record the maximum dynamic range without clipping. USB, +48V, and stream indicators conveniently show the operating status of SPARTAN CUE.
Input Selection Switch and Monitoring Selection Switch
Select the input and instantly monitor the sound
The input selection switch can be used to easily select the line level input or microphone and instrument input. In addition, the connected sources can be separated into mono/stereo and be monitored instantly. You can check the sound by simply using the switch, instead of clicking the mouse or operating the hardware. The switch can also be used to utilize a hidden feature.
SPARTAN CUE can be used like an additional external preamplifier when exporting sound with a line level output from the high quality microphone preamplifier and instrument preamplifier mounted on SPARTAN CUE. Headphones with sufficient volume and balanced line level output can be connected to other devices.

Low Noise Balanced Input and Output
Experts require balanced input and output
+19dBu acceptable line input and +17dBu line output allows best connection with your professional audio equipment without loss of dynamics. Specially the gain selectable line input between ‘Fixed Gain’ and ‘Variable Gain’ helps to record your sound by sufficient dynamics without limitation of source levels.
