Audigy 2 ZS Notebook with DTT3500 Digital

Hi
Sorry my very bad english, but i'm from Switzerland...
I have a problem. How can i use my Audigy 2 ZS Notebook with my DTT3500 Digital? SPDIF works with the optical cable. I want to use the decoder in the Soundcard, but the DTT 3500 has just green and black. But not orange, for center an subwoofer...
Is there a way to use this? With a special cable or something like that?
Thanks a lot, Rumblejack

Rumblejack,
Unfortunately the Audigy 2 ZS Notebook doesn't have a DIN on it which was the only way that the DTT3500 supported 5. outside of DVD passthrough over an optical or RCA connection. This means that to use the decoder on the card you will need a different set of speakers, as the DTT3500 speakers were designed with a different set of cards in mind.
If you decide to replace your speakers you might look at the Inspire T-5400, although they are less expensi've, they are actually more powerful speakers that the DTT3500s. They don't have a decoder (not needed since most of our cards now have built in decoders) so the price on them is much lower.

Saving a DRM book to pendrive/external disk to later download and read it on personal notebook (with Adobe Digital Editions)

Hello.
I installed Adobe Digital Editions on my mother's personal computer and activated my Adobe ID in order to be able to purchase, download and read DRM books there.
But is it possible to save the DRM books to a pendrive or external hard disk, so that I can "carry them" and later download and read them on my personal notebook (having previously installed Adobe Digital Editions and activated my Adobe ID in the notebook)?
I don't know if DRM books can be saved to pendrives and external hard disks...

Incidentally, you do know that you can buy kindle or Nook apps for your ipad? I was assuming you wanted a DE-specific app.
EDIT Actually, those apps are free--you just pay for what you buy through them, if that helps you any.
Incidentally, O'Reilly, my publisher, uses PDF for real galley purposes, although they do create epub editions of their books for distribution. You might want to ask the publishers you work with if there's another format available.

Audigy 2 ZS with Digital Optical I/O C

I got the Audigy 2 ZS with my Dell Dimension XPS. I was hoping the Optical Digital I/O card and module I had from my Li've X-Gamer would work with this card as it has the same expansion connector, but I do not get a signal from the I/O module. Is this supposed to work or am I wasting my time?
If this is not supposed to work, is there another method for getting optical out of this board? If my only option is to pick up a Platinum Dri've, I guess I'll do that, but I don't like the idea of permanent cables hanging out of the front of my PC. I have read the posts for getting coax digital, but I am kind of stuck with optical because I have no coax inputs left on my receiver and I have a long cable run from the PC to the receiver.
Thank you in advance for any help you may be able to provide.

Thanks Jason. I looked through the store selection, but did not notice any back-panel option for connecting optical (like the Optical Digital I/O card gave me on the Li've series). Is there such an device available or in the works? Or is my only option to use the dri've bay?
I have been using audigy 2 zs for quite some time also and I don't remember they have any addon optical card for this sound card. Guess you have to go for the external bay.

Decode AC3 Dolby with Audigy ZS or Inspire 5500 digita

Hello, i need your advice, I have Sound Blaster Audigy ZS and Inspire 5500 Digital,
which best to Decode AC3 (6 Channels)
decode with Audigy or Inspire?
Thanks

arturjose,
You should have the sound card bypass the AC3 signal to the speaker for decoding. Remember to also have the DVD software setup to SPDIF bypass the AC3 signal.

Want to connect Audigy 2zs gamer with digital so

Ok I have the audigy 2zs gamer, and the gigaworks 750 7. surround sound.
I also have hdtv cable box with digital out, and optical digital out.
I have ps3 (obviously with blu-ray) and xbox 360, both of which have a optical digital out.
I want to be able to connect to these, but I guess the only inputs ( on pod, and on card) are analog only.
My question is. Is there any way to do this. I see a digital i/o box, but I don't think it's compatible. It says it is with the value model, but not the regular 2zs gamer one?
So do I have to buy a newer sound card, or can I use this one as is, or with the digital i/o box to make it work.
I don't care about having multiple connections, I can make do with having only connected at a time.
Thank You

I guess what can solve one of the problems is.
If I use a digital out (4 pin minipole connecter) from my cable box to the line in of the 2zs board, will it accept it...or is the line in for the 2zs analog only?

5.1 sound in games with Creative Digital-Speakers and Audigy 2

Hi!
I know that you can't have real 5. sound (only upmix) in games with Creative Digital-Speakers. Is it possible to connect, without the decoder box, the soundcard with the subwoofer (Line-Out -3)? I want to make the cable for LIN_OUT 3 by myself, but which of the 4 pins are for the subwoofer, center front or center rear (ground is clear)?

Go to Knowledge Base article SID3069 then expand the "7. Soundblaster Cards".
It is possible to have 5. digital sound in games if your Creative speaker system has a digital DIN connection.

SB Audigy 2 Notebook Recording "Error Encounter

Hi, I've had a Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Notebook card for several weeks, and while it's generally working quite well, I've encountered the same error the last several weeks with after a scheduled recording from a line-in source:
After exactly hour, 55 minutes, and 44 seconds, the recording stops with a message that an error was encountered. In each case, the file format was .wav files, 48000 Hz, 24-bit Stereo; the file sizes, as reported in Windows Explorer, were ,953,4 KB.
Is there perhaps a file size limitation? If so, what thoughts/recommedations would folks have on the settings for loss-less recording of quality (such as it is) FM Stereo off-the air? Generally, I'd like to get 3 /2 - 4 /2 hour recordings.
Thanks in advance.
Doug

Jallenwebb,
If you are using the Mic/Line in 2 on the platinum dri've you will want to set the volume control on it to microphone (turn the volume up to where you want it...all the way down till it clicks sets it to line in mode) as in line in mode it records in stereo mode (both channels are recorded and since most mics are mono then you end up with only one channel) but in Microphone mode it records it as a mono input that is panned to center so it plays back in both channels.

Audigy 2zs notebook - Can hear but NOT record effect of Graphic Equalizer

Dear people,
Audigy 2zs notebook card, using with sonar-le to record (and also with Audacity).
I can record all I play with my soft synths, and mic voice, perfectly. Various tracks simultneously.
Playback is also great.
I use sonar-le in Asio 2-Mode, and MME and all works good.
HOWEVER, I bring up the Creative equalizer, and I enable it, it makes a NOTORIOUS difference.. I can enable it while I am recording, before, or after.
So I record a track as usual, but I enable the equalizer, and I am FINDING-OUT that I can not seem to be able to RECORD the effect of the creative EQUALIZER!
Even though I can hear it in and out, big difference, the track recorded wave continues to record as if it does not see the equalizer at all.
I have tried all available inputs and many many things, but I just can not get the eq. effects to RECORD.
I have two speakers connected to the dongle that attaches to the notebook card... I have also tried using headphones, directly connected to card, and all I can think. I tried also mme mode.
I also tried audacity and same. Can't get the recording to be like what I hear with the headphones.
Why would this be? How can I solve the problem?
Thanks a lot!

Whoops!? That sequencer/recording application "Cubasis VST 4" comes packaged with Audigy 2ZS Platinum Pro but not with the Notebook soundcard. A similar product Cubasis LE comes with X-Fi Elite Pro.
I haven't seen any details of the internal layout/architecture of the sound card, but I don't think that would help you in terms of some new configurations for recording.
In terms of recording capability, since there is only one input port with the NOtebook card, you are of course fairly limited in terms of connectivity, unless you have an external mixer (if you are talking about recording two things at the same time).
However, the audio quality of the Notebook card is certainly good enough to record very good quality audio with S/N, THD etc. My opinion is that people spend way too much time fussing about specs, noise etc. where in reality, most external transducers (mics, guitars etc.) always limit the recorded quality (unless you have really good professional recording gear and you have a lot of experience.
I've heard outstanding quality recorded music made on recording gear with much poorer specs than the Notebook card.
Best thing with your Notebook card is do what you've been doing. Use it and experiment and concentrate on the music generation itself.
Thanks for the reply!
I gather that the application may not be downloadable, specially if it is third-party. I do have the Synth effect, though that I can plug into Sonar.. I like the hardware enabled effects, though, specially since my music playing/recording system is a little complex.
Yes, I do have external hardware mixers, and though there is only the mic/line input, that's not too bad since this card has MANY internal inputs and outputs that I DO USE. All? of my instruments and music is now software based..Only the Mic is external. That's why the hardware synth of the 2zs laptop is so attracti've.. It does not bear on cpu or data... That's why I asked about architecture info orient myself.
Also, I may be wrong, but I read that many of the hardware capabilities of the 2zs notebook card are no longer there on the newer cards... That effects and other things are now mostly software based? Is that so?...Can I use two cards on the laptop, the 2 zs and the express slot one simultneously and have more inputs/outputs?
I am still interested in all practical possibilities, and I do like the Creative soundcards.
The great thig is that you told me that the Eq can not be recorded, so that's very important to me.. I can still record it, though out into a second laptop via the headphone jack. But I will try the VST's I have here first and see how they feel and sound.
It really amazes me, though, that I can hear the effect, but there's no way to record it.
Maybe a new driver could do it's
Thanks and best wishes!

What sound card with DTT3500

what sound card with DTT3500h Hello ,
acatually? my sound card is a sb Li've! 024 player connected to Cambridge Sound Worhs DTT3500 by spdif cable.

Yes, DDL works with EAX. That's probably you're best solution. You could either get a Titanium or Prelude, which both come with DDL.
Alternati'vely OEM Xtreme Music and Xtreme Gamer (SB077x series) cards often have optical ports. You could get one of these and add the DDL Pack from Creative (about $5 American). That can work out cheaper than a Titanium or Prelude.
Creative sell a flexijack adaptor giving optical out ports. That will work with most X-Fi models.
If you play a lot of games I would skip the Audigy series and the X-fi Xtreme Audio.

How can I get my e-mail address associated with Adobe Digital Editions?

How can I get my e-mail address associated with Adobe Digital Editions?

gjortega,
Your sidekick may be relaying through a different server. If its on AT&T, it could be using cwmx.com for outgoing. However, cwmx.com only works for AT&T/Cingular EDGE customers. When on Wi-fi it won't allow you to send through it.
Many internet providers, but not all, provide an authenticating SMTP server to use when travelling. If you configured your outgoing server to use the email providers authenticating SMTP server information on a port different from port 25, you will be able to use it on most networks. Some wireless networks filter a wider range of ports, such as some work places.
This article discusses the issue in more detail:
