Audigy 4 sound recording in MS Vista - temporary solut

If you upgrade the drivers to the latest Vista drivers and you lose the opportunity to record 'what u hear' sounds, then?record through?Wavestudio. Not ideal but a very simple solution.

  • 2 different Audigy 2 Soundcards & 2 different problems (vista problems onl

    I posted this in Daniel K's forum post on the vista section of the board, but feel i'll get a better repsonse here.
    "Fact 5:? I get sound from the card for less than one minute before Vista finally freezes. The operating system itself freezes and will crash with a BSOD. This has been tested with Vista x32 and x64." (Part of another members post on the other section)
    I get this exact same rubbish with mine, It works perfectly fine in XP32/64 & ubuntu but not Vista32/64. Also with my Audigy 2 Value Every now & again it will sound as if it is slurring/corrupting. Again it is perfectly fine in XP32/64 & Ubuntu, but not Vista 32/64. I have tried so many things.
    Such as:
    Reinstalling Vista countless times
    Changing Drivers constantly i must have tried about 30 different drivers.
    Changing PCI slot of the cards
    Put them in my 2nd machine which has vista32/xp32 as dual boot, same happens again on that one but only in VISTA!
    Fully Rebuilding the whole machine!
    Now I know i don't have the best of motherboards but if it works perfectly fine in XP32/64 & Ubuntu why doesn't it in VISTA?
    My computer consists of :
    Intel E6300 @ .86ghz (default speeds)
    Asrock 775Dual-VSTA (Bios is upto date with the one on their page)
    2gig OCZ Plat DDR2-800
    500gb SAMSUNG HD50LJ SCSI Disk Device (SATA)
    400gb Seagate ST3400832A ATA Device (IDE)
    20gb Maxtor 6Y20P0 ATA Device (IDE)
    Nvidia Geforce 7600GS
    470w Enermax Noisetaker
    Vista Ultimate 32bit & 64bit
    Currently running this soundcard in my main pc because it is the only one which will work but it still slurrs/sounds like it corrupts every hour or so.

    The other sound card which blue screens literally a minute after Vista loads is this:

    I'm at wits end with creative not supporting audigy 2 sound cards well in vista.

    Hmmm so does anyone from creative have an explanation for this? or is this post gonna be swept under the rug like all the others i see?

  • Audigy 2 ZS no Sound Recording possible (WinXP x

    Hi all,?I have some serious problems with my Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS Card.For years everything worked perfect, I used the soundcard?in many differenthardware setups and I never had any?problems until today.

I also can't record musik with Nero Wave Editor.For exaple I play music in winamp and want to record it in Nero Wave Editor,there is no sound signal, nothing.Also no Signal in the Windows Sound Recorder. Driver: I use the latest Win XP Prof x64 Driver from Creative Homepage?I use a Sennheiser headset and tested it on other PCs/soundcards, no problems. The headset is ok. Normal sound from creative soundcard works perfect, I only have this problemwith the recording and the microphone.
    Should I try firmware upgrade?please help me?greatings8kiLL

    I tested the "Asus Maximus Formula" onboard soundcard.Microphone works und Stereo Mix Recording also. But I need my working Audigy

  • SB Audigy SE and recording input possib

    I just bought an Audigy last week cause my onboard sound isn't supported for Vista. I can hear fine through my 2. speakers and I can record fine. The issue is say I wanted to record an MP3 with windows sound recorder, its not possible?
    Think of this meaning instead of recording what i speak in the mic, record what I play on itunes.
    Now if i could get both at the same time even better. Be able to play a song and sing along with it for instance. But id settle for just being able to switch to some "line-in" then record what the speakers are outputting.
    My old on-board soundcard would do this basic functionality. I thought buying a SoundBlaster would certainly be able to do it. Please let me know if this is possible before my 30 day return period is over so i can go back to my onboard sound.
    Also as a side note I also hear a digital frequency/static blair through my speakers every few minutes. what could be interferring with the frequency a wifi device or something? This also wasn't a problem on my intel onboard sound.

    KokChoy-CL,
    Maybe you could also help with this (please):? the Mic input doesn't work on a new SB Audigy SE. I've been reading a lot of posts regarding this problem, but no solutions anywhere.
    The Audigy SE uses a "FlexJack" for:? Line In/Mic In/Digital I/O (DIGITAL_IO); all via the same?blue jack. I haven't tried Line In or Digital I/O, but the Mic input is not working.
    I know the?Mic is good (the?Mic?works with both onboard audio?and?a SoundBlaster Li've! card on the same machine).
    I read elsewhere (for the X-Fi card) that there is a setting for controlling which input?to use on the FlexJack--this setting is nowhere to be found in the Audigy software.

  • Audigy 4 mic having problems in Vista

    Ok, so I have Vista Ultimate 64 bit addtion and an Audigy 4 sound card. The sound sounds great but my mic is very wishy washy when using the card. I downloaded their latest drivers and have even resulted to other types of drivers but no matter what it has the same problem or the problem is only improved slightly. Basically, when I first start the PC the mic usually doesn't work, but then randomly out of no where it will start working after awhile, but the thing is is that it will either work or it will be EXTREMELY crackily, however, even if it does work it eventually just ends up not working anyway. So basically it is really crackily and annoying or doesn't work half the time. Any help would be much appreciated.

    Are you running some version of Office 2003 or 2007? On some machines no matter what operating system, certain versions of Office turn on the microphone because of an "invisible always running tray applet". A friend of mine bought a Dell laptop in 2003 that was brand new. After a few days, random gibberish would pop up on his screen in every place you could type text. We then determined that Dell's default setup always had voice recognition software always calibrating itself. Some Dell laptops even had Dragon Naturally Speaking on them with the bundle and that program was fighting with the MS Office voice/systray applet.

  • My adobe audition 1.5 function as sound recorder

    my adobe audition 1.5 was installed on my acer aspire computer..but during the multitrack recording, it records the sound playing in WMP. without a microphone..i thought that if i record in multitrack,it only records the sound comes from the microphone..it is like a sound recorder to me..i dont know how to fix it..please help..i need it in making a song demo..tnx..  im using realtek ac97 audio..tnx..

    You don't say what operating system you are using, but Audition 1.5 will record whatever input the Windows system is set to feed. So you need to go to Windows Control Panel, select Sounds and then something like Audio, then Volume and select (or deselect) whatever source you want. It varies between XP,Vista and W7, so it's hard to be precise.
    Then in Audition, juggle with Options, Device Properties and Device order.
    I suspect you have "Stereo Mix" selected in the Windows system, and you need to change this to Microphone. It's woth getting to know your way around these Microsoft audio mixers and selectors.

  • Audigy 2 sound card problems

    I am hoping that someone out there can help me in a crucial situation.
    I am using an Audigy 2 sound card with creative 5. speakers.
    I also use Adobe Audition to edit, record sessions for my voice-over jobs.
    Recently, I attempted to hook up a web cam so that I could see my grand daughter on the west coast.
    After hooking up the web cam, I noticed my home studio environment changed drastically. I began having trouble with recording using my microphone through my Macki mixer. I began hearing a continuous hiss that I had never experienced before.
    In fact after uninstalling the web cam, and restarting my computer, I got that horrible blue screen on my computer indicating the world was about to end! Smile
    Long story short, I was able to finally get my computer back up, but I continue to experience problems recording "clean' audio".
    Three things, after reinstalling Creative from disc several times and restarting my computer I receive a window stating Creative Media Source Detector.....Unable to load needed components....Please reinstall the application"
    Also, when trying to test my sound hardware I get a message stating...Direct play voice setup..."an error occurred during direct play voice setup....error code 0x80004005
    Last but not least I cannot access the "Creative diagnostic feature on my computer. I only get a small window for this feature that will not open up fully and allow me to run a diagnostic test!
    I know this is a lot to absorb, but I cannot get anyone from Creative to address my problems because I am out of warranty and therefore not getting any love from this company.
    Need your advice and or guidance on this.
    Please respond when time allows.

    Re: Audigy 2 sound card problems? use add/remove programs and remove all creative software and drivers, then do the same for your web cam and unplug it
    restart your pc
    download and install [url="http://downloads.guru3d.com/Guru3D---Driver-Sweeper-%28Setup%29-download-655.html" rel="nofollow">driver sweeper[/url] and use it to clean up any left over creative bits and bobs and restart your pc when it asks you to
    now download and install the [url="http://support.creative.com/Products/product_list.aspx?catID=&CatName=Sound+Blaster" rel="nofollow">latest audigy drivers[/url]
    once your back in to windows try recording something and see if everything's back to normal
    now reinstalling your web cam but don't reinstall using the cd that came with it
    find the manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers
    install cd's best avoided simply because the software and drivers they contain are typically the initial release versions, and so potentially very old
    and i think we can all agree that old, buggy drivers can be a real pain

  • Audigy 2 & Windows Recording Mi

    I hope this is something simple that I'm just missing.
    I just upgraded my old soundblaster card to the Audigy 2. I always use Adobe Audition for sound recording, etc. With the old card, my windows recording mixer had about 9 different options, including the most important one, the record master. This is gone, and I only have 4 options with my new Audigy card. I installed the old soundblaster card in my other desktop, and the controls are not showing up there either. Just 4 basic ones. This is really annoying becasue I need the record master as an option! Help?

    I would recommend danielk's last pack for the Audigy series. His final release was 3.6 and can be found here http://forums.creative.com/t5/Sound-Blaster/SB-Audigy-Series-Support-Pack-3-6--09-2009/m-p/540934

  • No sound recorded on the internal microphone after SoundMAX driver update (Windows XP)

    My internal microphone is not picking up sound after I upgraded my SoundMAX driver (available from the Lenovo website here) to version 5.10.1.571.*  It looks like this was a problem before and was supposedly fixed in 5.10.1.5520 which is included in the version I have.
    I have tested the audio through the Control Panel utility, i.e., Sounds and Audio Devices Properties - Voice - Test hardware.  No dice: my voice could not be detected.  I also tested via the Windows XP sound recorder utility, i.e., Accessories - Entertainment - Sound Recorder.  Same result: silence.
    In the Control Panel's Sounds and Audio Devices Properties, I have verified that the Default device for Audio and Voice (playback and recording) all are set to "SoundMAX HD Audio."  The SoundMAX software that ships with this laptop (also called "control panel") is very scaled back.  There doesn't appear to be anything interesting there to adjust.
    Thanks in advance.
    * I updated the driver because I was troubleshooting my original problem.  My plug and play Logitech laptop speaker suddenly stopped working.  Alas, that problems remains and I have created a new one.

    Hello,
    Here versions of the Audio Features for Windows XP driver that I was able to find:
    5.10.1.5410 - download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/mobiles/7ka112ww.exe
    5.10.1.5520 - download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/mobiles/7ka114ww.exe

    5.10.1.5710 - download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/mobiles/7ka116ww.exe
    Hopefully, one of these will work for you.

    Hi,
    According to my analysis, for Digital Signatures: Adobe has changed the behavior around digital signatures and SharePoint-hosted PDF files. Now, when digitally signing a SharePoint-hosted PDF file, it will be saved directly to SharePoint if that PDF file
    is already checked out. If not, the user will be prompted to check it out. When digitally signing a SharePoint-hosted PDF file in Acrobat X, Version 10.0, the user would be prompted to save that file locally and would then need to upload it separately to SharePoint
    as a new version.
    I suggest that you use Acrobat X, then check the result. For more information about Acrobat X, please refer to

  • Sound Recorder activated automatically in WhatsApp

    I was very suprised when recently a friend of mein noted that he has received a 22 minute voice recording message over WhatsApp. I found out that the integrated Sound Recorder had recorded a message acitivating and sending it out without my knowledge. Is there any kind of shortcut or combination of buttons on my Mobile or Whatsapp itself that could activate the Sound Recorder without me doing this on purpose? Normally it takes at least four clicks zu start the recording of the Sound Recorder in WhatsApp: Attachment / Audio / Soundrecorder / Start Recording

    Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
    Sounds strange. Haven't used whatsapp myself so I'm not fully sure how the app works, but if you have the sound recording key active on the keyboard you're using you might have accidentally pressed it and recorded a message.

  • Sound recorder playback volume low ?

    I have a dv6000 notebook , for the first time ever I tried recording sound using windows movie maker  to add ''narration'' but the playback volume is very low .
    I tried the windows '' sound recorder '' and got the same result .
    I've been through all the standard adjustments and settings and have gone into  ' control panel ' and adjusted 'levels' and everything else with no success .
    When I record a video using the sound on my camera the volume is fine - it's just the mic sound that is low whether I use an external mic or the built in ones .  

    I have the same issue and I see no responses to your inquiry..  This Windows help menu leaves much to be desired.  Im sure I will one day figure out how to work this version that I had no clue I was buying bc it should come with a warning label..  its completely different and agonizing  and great help menu lovely.. Im sorry to be so negative  wish I could help.. Ill sit here all night till I figure it out and then post an option on how to adjust the recording volume.. Unreal..
