Give your standalone Apogee converter a direct FireWire connection!

The Apogee X FireWire is an expansion card that gives you the power and convenience of a direct FireWire connection in your AD-16X, DA-16X, Rosetta 200 or Rosetta 800. Based on S400 standards the X-FireWire board uses an expansion slot in the ROSETTA 800 to give users of Logic, Nuendo, and other popular software the option of amazing sounding Apogee conversion. With low-latency Core Audio (Mac) and ASIO drivers for leading operating systems, your hardware options for your DAW are greatly expanded.

The three ports on the Apogee X-FireWire Card allow you to daisy-chain additional devices to create an entire system. By extending the bus, the X-FireWire card allows for daisy-chaining of multiple Apogee systems or compatible peripherals, and permits the use of multiple FireWire devices by computers with only one port. The expansion board also passes power through the FireWire ports to allow the powering of additional devices.

With and X-FireWire card installed in an AD-16X, DA-16X, Rosetta 200 or Rosetta 800 you have the power of a professional FireWire connection to your favorite DAW: Logic 7, Nuendo, Cubase, Cakewalk, Live or virtually any native audio production software.

FireMix is a mixer application that allows control and creation of customizable sub-mixes for low latency performance in the native environment. FireMix features accurate input and output metering, 16 bit fader control, and eight 48 bit mix busses with enough DSP headroom to insure that there are no compromises to the audio quality. FireMix also has customizable pan control and key modifier user preferences to allow FireMix to operate in the same manner as your favorite audio application. With FireMix, you will get low latency monitoring, have the ability to save and recall all of your mixes, group and ungroup master faders all with little to no impact on your CPU performance.
