Specifications

The AD-16X is a sixteen channel analog to digital converter, housed in a single rack space chassis. The unit features a redesigned power supply, standard 192kHz sampling rates and the same C777 clocking technology found in Apogee's Big Ben master clock for jitter free conversion.

The ability to install optional Pro Tools HD and FireWire expansion cards make the AD-16X a powerful and flexible conversion combination. Not only does the unit offer advanced conversion technology, but makes it available at a fraction of the cost previously associated with premium Apogee gear.

Note! The cables specified in the accessories section are examples of what is required to operate the AD-16X.

• Advanced High-Definition Conversion: The most critical component in the digital recording environment is proper, high-quality conversion. With up to 192kHz standard sample rates, the AD-16X combines Apogee's legendary conversion quality with the very latest in high-definition digital to provide unrivaled flexibility and quality.

• Redesigned Power Supply: Enabling optimum conversion requires a state of the art power supply. The fully redesigned power system incorporates a specially designed Synchronous Switching power supply that works in conjunction with Apogee's very stable low jitter clock and filtering technology to provide superior heat and noise performance and an improved transient response over previous linear power supplies.

• Redesigned Analog Section: Incorporates the very latest developments in analog circuit design. The selection of premium, contemporary op amps allows the AD-16X to deliver outstanding conversion performance, while maintaining the signature Apogee sound; clear, transparent, focused and punchy.

• C777 Clocking: C777 clocking utilizes an entirely digital process developed with the most advanced Direct Digital Synthesis (DDS) technology and DSP-based digital filtering. With a stable, crystal based digital PLL handling the clocking, the unit is able to intelligently manipulate incoming signals and adapt to them accordingly. The rresult is aggressive jitter reduction and an astonishing and noticeable difference in sound quality.

• SoftLimit: One of the greatest difficulties in digital recording is getting an adequate level without clipping and the subsequent unwanted distortion. Soft Limit is a built-in analog peak limiter that enables the capture of an additional 4 to 6dB of level without going into an "over" condition.

• UV22HR: UV22HR is a proprietary process used to reduce the word-length of a high-resolution digital signal to 16-bits for the CD mastering with minimal audio degradation. It is also being employed to produce dramatically improved internet and computer audio content without increased file sizes or data rates.

• Expansion Card Slot: Offers an expansion card slot that greatly increases connectivity possibilities with the choice of several optional cards. The X-Series HD card will connect directly to a Pro Tools HD Core Card, while the X-FireWire card provides direct, extremely low latency connection that supports FireWire 800 standards and has backwards compatibility with 400 standards. This allows users of software such as Logic, Nuendo or any of the many native DAW's to benefit from premium Apogee conversion.
