Product Info

The ROSETTA 800 takes two of Apogee’s most celebrated products and the latest in high-definition digital audio and combines them into one impressive package. The ROSETTA 800 gives you eight channels of superior AD/DA conversion at sample rates of up to 192k, Apogee´s “SoftLimit”, “UV22HR”, and our advanced “Intelliclock”. The result is a premium digital recording solution that is built for the professional recording facility yet economical enough for the project studio.

Legendary Apogee Conversion in High-Definition
The most crucial process in the digital recording environment is high-quality analog to digital conversion and the most trusted and desirable converters are made by Apogee. With up to 96k standard and optional 192k sample rates, the ROSETTA 800 combines Apogee’s legendary conversion quality with flexibility that complements any digital audio workstation.

Users of Pro Tools Mix can bring their system up to date by adding a ROSETTA 800 outfitted with an X-Digi-Mix card. The X-Digi-Mix card will connect directly to the Pro Tools Mix core card, no other hardware required, effectively extending the life of your Mix system and optimizing your recording chain with premium Apogee conversion. Pro Tools HD users can also enjoy the direct connectivity and superior Apogee sound when they add an X-HD card to their ROSETTA 800 with no other hardware required.

Go Native with the X-FireWire expansion card
For users of Logic, Nuendo or any of the many native DAW’s the X-FireWire expansion card provides an extremely low latency connection that supports FireWire S400 and S800 standards. And, if you are buying multiple units, you can daisy chain up to a whopping 120 channels with incredibly low latency.

Intelliclock: Dual Stage Jitter Reduction
Another essential for outstanding digital recording is maintaining an ultra-low-jitter, clock signal. To accomplish this, ROSETTA 800 utilizes Apogee’s Intelliclock. Intelliclock is really two clocks in one. A fast-responding ´read´ clock, with a wide locking range, fills a dedicated FIFO buffer, while an ultra-low-jitter ´write´ clock writes the data out of the buffer, and is used to clock the converters.

SoftLimit: Maximize Levels, Minimize Overs
One of the greatest difficulties in digital recording is getting an adequate level without clipping and unwanted distortion. With Apogee’s SoftLimit, you can maximize digital output levels without overs.

UV22HR: Dither Down with 24-bit Detail
UV22HR is Apogee´s industry standard technology for reducing the word-length of a high-resolution digital signal to 16 bits for the Internet and CD mastering. UV22HR is also being employed to produce dramatically improved Internet and computer audio content without increased file sizes or data rates.
