Two Channels of Apogee Conversion! The Rosetta 200, Apogee's successor to the PSX-100 and Rosetta AD namesake, delivers the quality of the popular Rosetta 800, in a 2-channel AD/DA solution. Like the Rosetta 800, the 200 features premium Apogee A/D and D/A conversion, 192k sampling rates (standard), optional Pro Tools HD, Mix and FireWire expansion cards and core Apogee technologies such as UV22HR, and SoftLimit. And while the Rosetta 200 shares much of its feature set with its cousin, it throws in some irresistible extras such as C.O.D.A. (a new processing engine), full channel metering, and MIDI and S/PDIF input and output. Flexibility and features galore make the Rosetta 200 an outstanding option for professional and project studios, mastering engineers, and audio archivists. Apogee Rosetta 200 at a Glance: Legendary Apogee Conversion in High-Definition Connects Directly to Pro Tools HD and Mix Systems Professional FireWire Connectivity NEW C.O.D.A. Processing Engine for Conversion Intelliclock Dual Stage Jitter Reduction SoftLimit Maximizes Levels, Minimizes Overs Legendary Apogee Conversion in High-Definition The most crucial component in the digital recording environment is high-quality conversion and the most trusted and desirable converters are made by Apogee. With up to 192k sample rates, the ROSETTA 200 combines Apogee's legendary conversion quality with flexibility that complements any digital audio workstation. Connect Directly to Pro Tools HD and Mix Systems Like the ROSETTA 800 and the AD-16X / DA-16X, the ROSETTA 200 has an expansion card slot that accommodates all Apogee X-Series cards. This gives the Rosetta 200 outstanding connection capability to Pro Tools HD and Mix systems. With either the X-HD card or the X-Digi-Mix card connect the Rosetta 200 directly to your Pro Tools core card, no other hardware required. Professional FireWire Connectivity FireWire and digital audio are turning pro with Apogee's new X-FireWire card. With the optional FireWire card installed, you'll be able to connect the ROSETTA 200 natively to any FireWire input device, with near zero latency and without the need for additional hardware. C.O.D.A.: The NEW Processing Engine for Conversion Apogee's reputation for setting the standards in conversion technology is legendary. The areas of analog to digital conversion, digital format conversion and bit-rate conversion have all progressed forward due to advances in Apogee hardware and software. C.O.D.A., the latest addition to the Apogee arsenal, is the digital engine of the Rosetta 200. C.O.D.A. features format conversion, word length reduction with Apogee's UV22HR and sample rate conversion; offering the best in real-time bit and sample manipulation available. Intelliclock: Dual Stage Jitter Reduction Another essential for outstanding digital recording is maintaining an ultra-low-jitter, clock signal. To accomplish this, ROSETTA 200 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.

Customer Reviews  Worth every penn.... errr dollar!   by yaknski from Spokghanistan, WA, January 22, 2007 Music Background:  musician, budding engineer, “Upgraded from a MOTU 828mkII and wow what a difference in sonic quality! Wide, clear, crisp. Even playing a cd through the Rosetta is amazing. I've dealt once with Apogee support (my x-firewire card was defective) and they were great. I'm pretty sharp, but the installation process, manual layout left a little to be desired for me. It did have a learning curve for me at first, not as simple as...” Read More • Click Here to Read More Customer Reviews • Write Your Own Review Sweetwater Expert Advice     "The Rosetta 200 is the main monitoring path from my Pro Tools HD System. The accuracy and transparency of the Rosetta 200 is amazing. It really let me hear my mix and make better judgments. The Soft Limit section is great for tracking as well. Apogee converters are legendary and this is one of their best!" Dan VanAmerongen   "When using the Rosetta200 for the first time, I had a vocalist surprise me with a particularly energetic passage where the level just jumped off the meter. I thought the take was ruined and that suspicion seemed to be confirmed when I finally saw what appeared to be a severely truncated waveform. Oh, the horror! However, upon playback I was amazed to not be listening to distortion but to actually be hearing the quality of Apogee's Soft Clip Limiting. Had the take been "the take" and retracking not been an option, I would have been able to use the performance. This is simply an incredible testament to Apogee saving the day without mentioning their unbeatable conversion quality." Paul Allen   "I recently added the Rosetta200 to my portable Pro Tools Mbox rig and now I have portability plus sound quality comparable to an HD rig. This has to be the best 2-channel AD/DA I have ever worked with!!" Dennis Konicki   "The Rosetta200 is a necessary addition to all 2 channel computer-based recording studios. The quality of converter chip, analog circuitry and Clock source, make the Rosetta200 exemplary in AD/DA conversion. I was stunned when I added it to my Pro Tools rig!"
