What We Think

This unit is in great shape, and would be a very affordable way to add 8 more inputs and outputs to your existing audio interface with ADAT and AES connections, or use it as a standalone 8 in, 8 out firewire interface.

Manufacturer's Description from Apogee

The Rosetta 800 takes two of Apogee's most celebrated products and the latest in high-definition digital 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, Apogees "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.

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.

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.

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 96k standard and optional192k sample rates, the Rosetta 800 combines Apogee's legendary conversion quality with flexibility that complements any digital audio workstation.

Firewire for Future Connectivity Rosetta 800 has room for expansion. With the Firewire card installed, you'll be able to connect the Rosetta 800 natively to any Firewire input device, without the need for additional hardware.

About Manufacturer

Apogee was founded in 1985 and initially made its name designing filters. Later, Apogee's complete conversion systems pushed the envelope of digital audio quality and solved many of the early problems with digital audio technology. Apogee converters have become regarded as the reference standard for digital audio conversion. Products such as the award-winning Rosetta 800, AD16x and DA16x  have become the modern benchmark by which digital audio conversion is judged. A new generation of Apogee products including the revolutionary Symphony I/O, with its modular design and flexible connectivity,  promise to extend the Apogee legacy and further advance the art of digital audio.

Victoria Regal II Amplifier Demo on Electric Guitar

The Regal II from Victoria Amplifiers is an amp that stands in a class of its own. The Regal II has a 15 inch Eminence Legend speaker that produces a wide rage of tones, from thunderous lows, to pleasantly chimey highs. The Regal II also gives you the ability to switch out and mix and match tubes to get a gritty or custom sound that is difficult for another to match, and the fact that you can switch your tubes without rebiasing is an amazing feature. The top of the line design of the Regal II gives you tweed sponginess, coupled with overtones and touch sensitivity that will be sure to satisfy any style of guitar playing. You can use one 6V6 for 5 watts of output or go to the full 35 watts with two EL-34's. Along with the feature of switching tubes, this amplifier comes with a reverb and tremelo pedal, that gives you an amazingly vintage sound. This is a fantastic amp for small gigs and recording. You can get nice warm jazz tones as well as great classic rock and blues tones.
