Rosetta200는 제품명이 그렇듯 2 ch의 192 kHz 대응의 AD/DA 변환 장치이다. 그러나, 이미 판매되고 있는 Rosetta800을 단순하게 2 ch로 제작된것 만은 아니다. 이 제품에는 Apogee의 새로운 기술인 "CODA" 가 탑재되고 있다. CODA는 통칭 "Audio Finisshing Module" 지만, 그 기능은 확실히 마스터링전용의 기능이라고 말할 수 있다. Apogee에는 UV22라고 하는 다운 컨버터시에 다이나믹 레인지 저하시키지 않는 제품을 판매하고 있다, 그리고 CODA는 반대로 업 컨버터 시에 유용한 기능이라고 말할 수 있다. 20 bit의 레인지의 소재를 24 bit의 레인지에 컨버터 하였을 경우에, 24 bit의 레인지내에서 뒤틀림, SN비는 증폭해 버린다. CODA는 이러한, 노멀라이즈나 옵티마이즈 시에 뒤틀림, 노이즈의 증가를 감소 시킨다.
Apogee 제품은 UV22와 같이 이 CODA가 탑재되어 타사의 변환 장치보다 더 높은 퀄리티를 자랑한다.

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, optional Symphony, Pro Tools HD, 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 the Rosetta 800, it throws in some irresistible extras... Such as the new CODA Audio Finishing Module, full channel metering, 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.
Legendary Apogee Conversion in High-Definition
The most crucial component in the digital recording environment is high-quality A/D 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.
The all new CODA: Audio Finishing Module, including the Aptomizer, Sample Rate Conversion (SRC), and UV22HR
As higher definition audio becomes ever-present in the recording process and music continues to be delivered as a product at 44.1kHz/16-bit you need tools to minimize the loss of detail and quality that can be inherent in the course of music production.

To meet these challenges Apogee has developed CODA. Unique to the Rosetta 200, CODA offers a trio of tools that will preserve the integrity of hi-def recordings with a minimal loss of quality. Heading up the CODA threesome is Apogee's “ Aptomizer ”. With the Apotimizer you can maximize levels with out increasing noise and distortion. Great for mastering, the Apotimizer's “Learn” mode allows the Rosetta 200 to automatically determine the optimum level, and use it consistently to normalize incoming audio.
Another aspect of CODA is premium sample rate conversion (SRC). In the past, Apogee hardware has not offered sample rate conversion because the results were disappointing but recent advances have made SRC a viable option and now a vital part of CODA. With Apogee's implementation of sample rate conversion you can up or down sample without noticeably affecting the quality of your audio. Apogee's " UV22HR " dithering technology completes the CODA triangle by offering powerful reduction of high-resolution digital audio to 16 bits for the Internet and CD mastering. It is estimated that UV22HR is used on 8 out of 10 commercially released CDs in the U.S. The Rosetta 200 with CODA on board provides an end-to-end solution for capturing and optimizing high definition digital.
Symphony Connection
Either with the Symphony PCIe card and the extremely powerful Mac Pro or the Symphony Mobile card with the portable yet powerful Mac Book Pro, the Rosetta 200 and 800 make a great front end for your Symphony system when only a few channels of I/O are needed.The great thing is that you can expand later by adding another Rosetta, or by adding from the AD-16X and DA-16X series converters.
Pro Tools HD or Native FireWire connection
Like the all new generation Apogee hardware, 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 with the “ X-HD ” card, or connect to any native DAW using the “ X-FireWire " card.
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.
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.
