Conections to Audigy 2ZS for built-in case Mic and Headphon

Is ther a pinout for any place on the Audigy 2 ZS for me to connect my built-in case connectors so I can enable the Mic and Phones connectors? The cable that goes from the connectors to the mobo right now (the mobo has onboard audio) are individually labeled for channel, grd, etc. They are individual connectors and go on the really small pins typical to many of the conectors on the sound card. I disabled the onboard audio of course, but the connectors were likewise disconnected at the same time. Any help would be greatly appreciated

A way to do this with known, documented signals is to mount two stereo minijacks to a slot cover to bring the front connectors to the rear. Then use short splitters and cables to connect the line out and mic to the front.
Here's also an old post made to CL's decommissioned old-style usenet server. There is at least one signal discrepancy to be concerned about in this description:

    If you're asking Creative card ... all cards with 0-pin properiatry connector onboard can do this partly (i.e. not 00% functioning) if you make DIY connection like showen on article --> http://audigy2zshowto.blogspot.com/
    Perhaps some mb-integrated (onboard) SB systems from certain vendors has this connection utilized the way, as it's done with your onboard sound.

    I have Dragon Dictate but did not notice until now that the earphone jack is only for listening so I cannot dictate using headphones and the mic on the computer is not good enough for that. A friend gave me a USB card that says 3D Sound on top; it is  a plastic case, charcoal gray in color and side jacks to connect headphone and mic. Connected to computer but it does not do a thing. Any ideas on how to make it work?

    You are not supposed to connect a pair of speakers(as in left and right in a stereo pair)to two separate out jacks on the sound card.the place on the card where headphones/speakers with the mini jack goes is the right place.

  • RFCs / BAPIs for complex use case - offer and account receivable

    Hello,
    a scenario for testing purposes requires me to make remote function calls.
    I found almost everything I need in the IDES system I am accessing.
    What I am still missing, are RFCs or BAPIs to do the following
    - after selecting materials to be sold and after providing a pricing I would like to create an offer, proposal, or quote
    - after creating a bill, I would like to create and later close an account receivable item
    Can anybody help me on finding appropriate remote functions or BAPIs?
    Thanks in advanced
    Stefan
    PS: If you need more context, here is what I got so far
    - create and lookup customers using BAPI Customer
    - material availability and price check using BAPI Material
    - create a sales order using BAPI SalesOrder
    - create a shipment using BAPI Shipment
    - create a bill using BAPI ItCustBillingDoc
    hope that makes sence

    Hi Stefan,
    To find the BAPIs you need, use transaction BAPI in R3.  Creating the quotation, for example, can be found in Sales>Customer Quotation>Create From Data which gives the function "BAPI_QUOTATION_CREATEFROMDATA".  Using the same found General Accounting>Accounting Interface>AccntgBilling-->Post(etc) leading to "BAPI_ACC_BILLING_POST".

  • Loud crackeling noise and barely any sound-Audigy 2zs, Dell Dimension 2

    I just installed audigy 2zs into my Dell Dimension 2400 and all Im getting is a loud crackle, like static, out of my center speaker (logitech 5. Thx). There is a faint bit of sound in the background also, and no sound at all from the other speakers. Any suggestions? I think I have all the drivers installed and all the tests have passed. Thx.

    I have also had some issues with the sound card popping and cracking. It only happens when I am either playing a cd, DVD or a video game. I have a Compaq Presario 2500 laptop, dvd/dvd-rw dri've Maxtor usb2 external hard dri've, Targus 7 port usb2 router, wireless mouse and keyboard, and finally my Audigy 2 NX sound blaster. Seriously I have tried everything and to no avail. I have even wiped the computer just for kicks. I only had the sound card working properly but it didn?t last. What I did was to uninstall the drivers for the DVD dri've and shut down the computer. After the computer started back up it reinstalled the DVD drivers and I had good quality sound.... or so I thought. About 2 days later the same problem arose and I uninstalled the drivers again but this time it did not fix the problem. I have the windows updated, DVD driver?s updated sound card updates EVERYTHING but I still get the static in the speakers only when I am trying to listen to a cd play a video game or watch a DVD. When you have a 4 thousand dollar sound system connected to your sound card would expect good sound from it. Plus the email technicians have emailed me a million things to do but have those worked? NO! I am starting to think that Creative doesn?t care about its costumers anymore. I have seriously thought about getting a different sound card but I have not. I like my 7. surround sound when I listen to mp3 and watch movies that I have ripped on the computer. Someone please give me some advice this sound card is really trying my patience.

  • Problem with Audigy 2ZS and Logitech z5500 speakers

    Hi, all. I've had my Audigy 2ZS for a while, and I've been using Creative 4. speakers. I just got the logitech z5500 5. speakers, and I've been trying to get them to work properly with my soundcard, but it's giving me headaches.
    The setup: I'm using the 3 direct inputs to go from the sound card to the speakers, so all the various digital issues I've read about *shouldn't* be issues for me.
    The problem: When I do my a sound test using the Speaker Settings controller, my rear speakers are reversed, and one of them doesn't play at all! I've confirmed that all my speakers work, and I've used the diagnostic tools that come with the speakers to make sure that the speakers themselves are set up and working correctly.
    Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm really frustrated...this seems like it's either a card or software issue, but I'm just not certain how to fix it.
    Thanks!

    I had the same problem with two different X-Fi extreme music cards. I fixed it by running the speaker test for individual speakers and changin the speaker settings ad nauseum. 'tis an issue with the jack sensing on the drivers.
    If you unplug all the connectors and plug them back in, you'll find that some other channel gets screwed up.

  • Audigy 2ZS is

    I use my Audigy 2zs with a Zalman ZMRSA 5. Headphone amplifier and ZM-RS6F 6. Headphones. Up until this morning the setup has worked flawlessly. However, upon powering up my PC I found that I was hearing sound in only one ear..... now either I am going deaf, or more likely there is a problem. Have checked leads, windows settings etc, nothing has changed. At the moment I am trying to eliminate my soundcard from the list of possible faults..... however.....
    I currently have my PC Rigged up to my hi-fi (2 speakers)and note that when I connect to line-out, I only get sound from one of my speakers, whereas outs two and three give me stereo output. I have tested all cables and wiring, and have gone as far as to reseat the card in my PC. I dont understanbd why it worked fine last night, but now I lose stereo output from out- (supposedly connecting to front/rear, as per Zalman and/or Creative install instructions for 5. speakers.)
    System is Windows XP Service pack 2.
    Anybody got any ideas or is my card/the connector on it goosed?
    Cheers

  • Milestone billing for non project case

    Hi,
    I have a building/room that is going to be rented. I need to adopt Down Payment (%) with open date, which means the customer is have flexibility to choose when he/she wants to finish the payment. e.g: for a wedding, today the customer pay DP, let say 30% of total, and he/she will use the building next year and pay the remaining.
    I  try to explore the proper / suitable solution for this case in SD. I try to use milestone billing plan. I copy as SO doc type OR, copy as item category TOA, copy as billing doc type FAZ and FAS , and use milestone billing plan in item level while creating the SO doc.
    My question is, before I continue to use it, I want to know if It is okay to use milestone biiling plan for non project case? and what is the possible effects?
    thank you,
    Regards,
    Harris

    Hi all SAP ers...
    I want to continue my first question.
    1. Right now I am considering, is it the right concept to use millestone billing plan in my case?
    2. If I use Milestone Billing Plan for Down Payment Process, which point of view do we use? Is it I am the project owner and then I bill the vendor OR I am the Vendor who sends the invoice to the customer/project owner?
    3. Is it "okay", if I use milestone billing plan ? (If the point of view is I am the Vendor who sends the invoice to the customer)

  • SB Audigy 2ZS Plarinum Pro: setting source for recording

    Hello!
    I am having problems setting the source for recording. I want to set the recording source from 'Wave' (default) to 'Line-In /Mic'. After doing so with the mixer or the MediaSource Player it resets to 'Wave' after some time. Why? Can I force the software to make 'Line-In /Mic' the default setting? It really dri'ves me nuts to see that the source has changed without me being notified. I want to have the source changed only by myself and not by some cozmic radiation, God's will, voodoo magic and whatnot.
    Greetings
    ClustalW

    <Re: SB Audigy 2ZS Plarinum Pro: setting source for recording? Okay ClustalW, I understand the "Default" problem you are having. So can you go to control panel, and sound and there look at your recording devices and tell me what do you see? If your desired device is there, you can choose it as the default and then throughout the rest of windows, this will be THE global default recording device or the first choice, when you are in other programs to record from. Also, make sure your device is plugged in when making this change. On my system with that board, a few years ago, I could make the choice, but it would always pick something else when the source was unplugged. For example, if I were using the front bay inputs as recording, when I would unplug them and reboot, my system picked the next thing as default.
    Next go into to your Creative Control panel and do the same thing there. Theoretically your choices should be linked, but this is not always the result. I can choose mine in Vista and windows 7, but lastly I always go to the Creative mixer applet and do it there and that works best. For me, my default is my front panel Mic or Microphone FP but as soon as I unplug it, it wants to make my back mic jack the default.

  • Still no fixes for Audigy 2zs problem

    I still have major issues with my Audigy 2zs in many games, yet I still see absolutely no updates on the drivers. Have you completely abandoned you customers now?
    If I install your bloatware to get the functionality, I get crash after crash, yet if I just use the driver, I get only 4 hardware voices, and many sounds are simply dropped. This is in World of Warcraft, Doom 3, Unreal 2, Unreal Tournament 2003, Diablo 2, and even games as simple as Bejeweled 2!
    As long as you continue to leave your old bugs in place, I will not support buying any of your new products. I will continue to tell people that your products are crap because you refuse to actually support them. If Nvidia or ATI had pulled this ind of crap with their products, they would have gone under by now. We've already seen this happen with 3dFX and S3. Don't you people learn from history?

    I just recently found out about the VIA and Creative problems in the past. I know the SiS chipset is good too! I had this 2zs card in an Asus SiS chipset motherboard and it worked flawlessly. Now, in this VIA chipset motherboard, I'm having all kinds of trouble. I can't justify buying a new motherboard when I only bought this motherboard 2-4 months ago! I wish I knew of these issues before buying a motherboard with a VIA chipset!!
    Does anyone know of a solution or know if Creative is even working on a solution? That Beta driver's been out for more than a month now! I hope when the final revision of that driver comes out, it will address this issue! If not, I don't know what I'm going to do!!
    And with all the problems I've seen people having with the X-fi cards, I'm not even going to consider going in that direction (especially since a lot of people having trouble with the X-fi card have motherboards with the VIA chipsets).
    Any help is greatly appreciated! I've spent countless hours searching the web for an answer (which is something I shouldn't have to do in the first place, but that's another story) and have come up with nothing! The ONLY reason why I'm sticking with this Creative card is because I really like EAX in my PC games, and especially EAX Advanced HD 4.0! When functioning properly (which is not as often as I'd like), it sounds amazing!!

  • Vista Drivers for the Audigy 2ZS Video Editor

    OK, so I know I'm only one of 20 people in the world who were ever stupid enough to buy one; but I am disappointed to see that there is so far no Vista beta driver support for the device.
    Are there plans to ever support it under Vista?
    As half of the internals are an Audigy 2ZS sound card for which Creative are developing Vista drivers, the job is surely half done? Modifying the existing USB video capture driver surely can't be too difficult?
    Must say, that if this device is ignored under Vista, it will be the last Creative product I ever buy .....
    Nigel

    I wish someone from Creative would give a definiti've answer to this question.
    I've had the Video Editor for about a year so it's hardly old technology, and Vista was in development last Summer. The Audigy ZS sound drivers are being developed for Vista, how diffcult can it be to get the Video drivers modified to run under Vista?

  • Audigy 2ZS: no sound for Guitar Hero 3 for

    Just like in the title I have no audio for the game. I have exchanged my first copy of GH3 for pc for a new one and both without any audio. I've checked all my connections, tried both speakers and headphones, reinstalled the game many times with two different DVD dri'ves, made sure I had the most up to date drivers for my ZS, went into the in game audio options to make sure the volume was all the way up. I can play music and other games without any problem. I just don't understand what the problem is. My sound card has been fine and working for over a year.
    I've also contacted the GH3 for pc support and they have been of no help whatsoever, so I thought I'd come here and I might get the attention of some real experts and this problem may have a chance of getting resolved.
    So if anyone can give suggestions or help in any way it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    OK well I got a new sound card, a Auzentech X-Fi Prelude 7.. This new sound card is amazing, magnificent sound quality and the audio in games sounds so much better. And best of all I now have sound In GH3 for PC. Its a great card. They actually come out with new drivers to fix problems, I think they came out with 5 or 6 new drivers since the card was released in October 07.
    I still don't know what the cause of my problem was, my guess is that it had something to do with my old sound card or its drivers. All I know if it wasn't for that stupid problem I probably wouldn't have got my X-Fi Prelude.
