Audigy and front Mic/Headset connectors at c

Hello,
I?m thinking abut buying an Audigy card, but need to know IF AND HOW I may connect the card to the front connectors wich are integrated in my computercase (Mic and Headphone).
(I dont want any 5 /4 connector panel)
Please helpMessage Edited by Gork on 05-24-2006 04:35 AM

I found this information on Creative KnowledgeBase ..
Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio and Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer feature the Intel High Definition Audio (Intel HD Audio) Front Panel header.
Bad information is that it's not compatible w/ all front panel connection methods.
This header follows the standard 2x5pin Intel HD Audio conform layout. It is not compatible with AC97 or Intel-compatible HD Front Panel Audio.

  • Alc888 INTEL HDA and front mic not worknig

    I'm running Arch 64 bit on a DELL Studio 540 PC with a Intel HDA (ALC888) and I have two mics, one in the back and one front. The one in the back works fine but in the front I only getting noise/static (no actual sound). I've tried to fudge around with the sound settings but no luck. Recording with Audacity just gives the noise/static and Skype test call doesn't record anything. I've been trying for 2 years getting the front mich working but no luck so far at least under linux.

  • Can I use my headset for "sound-out" and phone mic...

    I have an E51 and the headset that came with it. I would like to achieve the following during calls: To use the headset for sound-out (i.e. as headphones) and the phone mic for sound-in. The mic on the headset gives a lot of static and I would rather use the phone mic (girlfriend complains).
    So I tried this: Under Tools>Settings>General>Enhancement, I set the Default to Headphones.
    Still, when I connect my headset it says "Default Enhancement: Headset" and the headset mic is automatically used.
    The default enhancement settings does not seem to matter.
    Does anyone know if there is a way to solve this? Is there a way to manually switch between the headset and phone mics?
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the reply. I am not using a bluetooth headset but a cabled one (that one that came with the phone for me -- I guess nokia skimped a bit here, not shipping with a bt headset).
    I was recently told basically the same thing you are saying in a store, that it is not possible to use the mic for sound-in during a headset call. He also said that any cabled headset or even *headphones* will be recognized as a headset by nokia phones because they all have the same 3 connectors (right, left, mic) on the 2.5mm jack. Can that really be right?
    So that means that even if I get a set of cabled headphones for my e51, I will not be able to use them for sound-out during a call?
    cheers

  • Audigy 2 and front panel au

    Hi all,
    I have a SoundBlaster Audigy 2 (SB0240) I plan to put in my new computer setup, which is going into an Antec P60 case. The new case has front panel audio connectors for both speakers and microphone. The connector is compatible with the Intel specs. Is there a way I can connect my Audigy 2 to this? My mainboard's SoundStorm 2 audio has this connector, but I am unsure if I can do this with an Audigy 2 card.Message Edited by dterborg on --2004 2:36 AM

  • 27" 2012 iMac and Headphones+Mic (2x3.5mm connectors)

    I see that the new iMac specification states that it has one 3.5mm connector that supports Apple iPhone headset with microphone. If I have a headsets with microphone (not Apple).
    - If I use a 3.5mm 4-Pin to 2x 3-Pin 3.5mm Headset Splitter Adapter to connect my headphones+mic to new iMac will it work? (let say this adapter )
    - Is there anything Apple specific and not every 4 pin 3.5mm connector will work for headphones+mic? I noted that on headsets+mic that are supposed to be used with phones some have iPhone lable and some do not as well I know that not all this kind of sets work on iPhone. I have tried HTC headsets+mic and it won't work on iPhone.
    - or it is better to use USB Stereo Audio Adapter (like this)?
    - any suggestions if one needs to use the headset+mic that has 2x3.5mm connectors (one from mic and one for headsets) and do not want to buy a new ones?

    Hi Munas,
    I got my iMac in advance so I could test the Lindy cable with my Sennheiser PC 360. Bad news: it doesn't work! The microphone is not recognized and only the iMac internal microphone is functional. For cons, I tested my iPhone headset with microphone (Atomic Floyd Superdarts) and it worked perfectly.
    IMHO, the conclusion is that the microphone impedance for a classic headset is not compatible with an iMac or the cable that I tested is not suitable !

  • I can record voice memos fine using the built-in iPhone 4 mic.  And my Bluetooth headset (Jawbone Era) works fine when I leave messages on voice mail systems etc. when calling on the iPhone 4.  However, I cannot record voice memos with my Bluetooth mic.

    I can record voice memos fine using the built-in iPhone 4 mic.  And my Bluetooth headset (Jawbone Era) works fine when I leave messages on voice mail systems etc. when calling on the iPhone 4, so it appears my headset mic is fine.  I can also use voice activated dialing, although it fails miserably interpreting numbers.  However, I cannot record voice memos with my Bluetooth mic.   I just get barely audible static.  Any suggestions?   Thanks.

    Hello, did you ever get an answer to your question? I just picked up a Jawbone Era and using on an iPhone 4s running 5.0.1. Seems to work fine on regular calls, but not on the built in Voice memos application. It worked fine on my older Jawbone Icon, but haven't tested on the 4s or iOS 5.
    Thanks!

  • Why does my friends on skype hearing my music when im using a iphone5 headset and using the headset mic on a macbook pro?

    Hi! Im using a macbook Pro 17,5 and I´ll have one audio input and one mic input! But Im using only the audio input with my iphone 5 headset and using the mic from that headset!
    Why does everyone else on my skype hearing me and what Im doing on my mac?
    For example. I talking on skype with some friends and playing Counterstrike. They can hear me really good but they are hearing me shooting a target as well as they can hear me. WHYYYYY??
    Plz help me!

    You should post in the Skype forums. However I would presume that Skype needs a WiFi network not a 3GS network to function.

  • Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS, only front left and front ri

    I've had the sound card for about 8 months now. About a week ago, instead the usual 7. coming out of my speakers, only the front left and front right speakers work. It's not the speakers, because I plugged the speakers into the onboard audio and they all work, but when I have them plugged into the sound card, only the front two. I have the audio set to 7. in the control panel and have CMSS 3D turned on. It has nothing to do with settings, because when I run the test in the THX console, the front two speakers are the only ones that work. Could someone please help me out, Thanks

    You could try this. Remove the sound card from the computer and boot up the computer without the sound card in the computer. Let Windows finish loading and then have it shutdown. Slot back the sound card to the PCI slot and boot the computer.

  • Titanium Fatal1ty Pro and front panel audio

    So I hooked up my case's front panel audio cable to the Titanium card and used the front panel connectors.
    The sound quality is noticeably worse than using the back plugs. When I use the front panel mic, I also hear artifacts in the sound. When I play a game, I hear slight buzzes in accordance to what is coming out of the speakers.
    I'm wondering if this is just the quality of my cases's cables or if it also happens with the official creative front panel accesory.
    Anybody want to comment on quality?

    /Re: Titanium Fatalty Pro and front panel audioQI had an older Audigy 2 dri've connected to my X-Fi Xtreme Music and that never had any interference. The X-Fi dri've bay can't be bought separately anymore.
    When I switched to a newer X-Fi without a front panel, I used the case connectors and the sound quality was awful.
    I think it's the way the connectors are wired and the build quality. Despite the really awful drivers Creative ship for their cards, the hardware's actually pretty good.
    There're some guides on how to rewire front panel connectors to reduce noise:

  • Mac mini and Logitech gaming headset

    I have a 2008 Mac Mini running 10.6.4 and I want to use a Logitech headset for online gaming but I can not make the microphone work. The output works fine, but the input wont register at all. The mic uses two standard jacks, one for input and one for output and they are connected directly to the back of the mini but it get no recognition that a mic is attached at all.
    Anyone know how to get the mini to recognize the mic?

    The line should be the mic option assuming you have a line in and a line out connection on the back of the Mini and the sound out and mic in connectors are plugged in to the right connections.
    I have a USB camera with built in mic ( Playstation Eye ) connected to one of the USB ports which I use for the mic and it shows up below line in in the settings so I don't use the line in unfortunately.
    The line in is meant to be the mic input. I have a late 2009 Mini and it has a line in and a line out as in the picture in the link below. Is yours the same ?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3478
    Having looked at the specs on that page again it seems as if the line in may not support mics after all. The other option would be to get a USB adapter with a female line in and line out and connect the headset to one of the USB ports as this should work. I've done just that on my MacBook Air which is running 10.6.3.
    The Playstation Eye on my Mini is connected the same way. If you can't find an adapter for your existing headset then you might need to consider buying a new one that does have USB as an option.

  • Audigy 2 ZS Gamer & Headset quest

    I just bought an Altec Lansing AHS602i Gaming Headset. I have a pannel that sits in my CD dri've bay that I can connect a headset / microphone into along with other things. When I plug the headset in it turns off my speakers, but I am not getting any sound and the mic makes some echoing sounds. Is there something that I am missing. When I get home I'm going to plug it into the back to test the headset.
    Any ideas I can try when I get home?
    Thanks.

    I have it setup right in the mixer. It works great when I plug it directly into the sound card in the back. I would like to use the plugs in the front pannel in my Bay. I plug in the headset and my speakers turn off, but I can't hear anything in my headset with any of the volume's turned up. I've also tested the mic up front with no luck either.
    Tonight I will double check the connections to the front panel, but has anyone else run into this?
    Thanks

  • Laptop HP 14d-006La has only one audio jack (mic/headset)

    Laptop HP 14d-006La has only one audio jack (mic/headset) 
    How can I solve this?
    I need to use my headset built-in mic instead of the laptop intengrated mic but it has only 1 audio jack, Can I solve this by software? or at least can I choose wether use the jack as mic or use it as external speaker?
    Thanks in advance for any help

    Hi EdgarNaranjo,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read your thread on your HP 14-d006la Notebook  and having issues with connecting a microphone. Audio-out (headphone)/Audio-in (microphone) jack connects optional powered stereo speakers, headphones, earbuds, a headset, or a television audio cable. Also connects an optional headset microphone. This jack does not support optional microphone-only devices. Be sure that the device cable has a 4-conductor, a connector that supports both audio-out (headphone) and audio-in (microphone). Here is a document on connecting a microphone.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

  • ~~KT4V~~ Front Panel Pin Connectors (USB + Audio)

    Hello All
    I have a few questions on setting up the front panel pin connectors from my case to my new KT4V board.
    First question: USB
    My case is usb 2.0 (Raidmax Scorpio)it has two seperate pin connectors a 4 pin and a 4 pin + GND pin on the second wire. I assume I put the GND in the JUSB1 #10 slot which is marked (USBOC) in my manual. Is this correct?
    Second Question: Front Audio (Microphone, Headphones)
    The front panel Audio Connector: JAUD1
    The four pin connectors that my case has labeled is:
    1. MIC DATA
    2. MIC GND
    3. EAR R
    4. EAR L
    I am pretty sure MIC DATA goes in pin #1, and MIC GND goes in pin #2. As far as both EAR pins, I am not sure and would appreciate some help in this.
    Thanks in advance.
    ncarme  :D

    I know, I have the book in front of me. But the names on the board and my case are different. Thanks for the info on the usb, how about the audio inputs.
    Thanks.

  • Front USB & audio connector

    I just bought a new Aopen case with a front panel for audio and USB. Unfortunately, I don't now in wich order I have to put the plugs on the pins. I have an MS-6340M mainboard and an Aopen H500 case. These are the layouts for my USB and audio pins:
    USB connector  (USB2)          
    Pin 1 - VCC                              
    Pin 2 - GND

    Pin 2 - MIC_In                        
    Pin 3 - X                                  
    Pin 4 - +12V                              
    Pin 5 - GND                              
    Pin 6 - GND

    Black - AUD GND
    Grey - RET_R
    Green - RET_L
    Does somebody now in wich order I should connect the plugs? Thanks in advance,
    -WRZ Mazter

    In the first place, I would like to thank you for your help with the USB connector: it's working fine right now.
    For the audio connector I searched a bit around by myself and foundthis page. It lookes pretty simple now:
    Pin 1 - MIC_In : Red - MIC
    Pin 2 - MIC_In : Black - AUD GND
    Pin 3 - X : Coffee - MIC_BIAS
    Pin 4 - +12V
    Pin 5 - GND : Yellow - FPOUT_R
    Pin 6 - GND : Grey - RET_R
    Pin 7 - GND
    Pin 8 - GND
    Pin 9 - Speaker_R : Blue - FPOUT_L
    Pin 10 - Speaker_L : Green - RET_L
    But I accedentily connected the ground cable to pin 4 (VCC) instead of pin 2 (GND). As I turned on my pc again, the whole black ground cable went up in smoke as a result. Fortunately my mainboard isn't damaged, and I am going to buy a new cable for the front audio connector. I'll let you know if it works.
    Thanks again for your help.

    P.S. if you think I am making a mistake in my scheme, could you please tell me?
