Connecting Sound Card to Antec Sonata front panel line out (Headphone) j

I've tried finding an answer to this, but is there ANY Sound Blaster product that has the capability of connecting to the front panel headphone jack an Antec Sontata case? My current card is a basis Sound Blaster Li've! card, model SB0220, and would upgrade if possible. Thanks for any help.

This perhaps not so easy matter you may suppose. Try Driver Heaven forum for example, to find answer, if there is even a possibility to do this (technically there is but has somebody described it)?

  • K8N Neo Platinum + Sonata Front Panel Audio Problem

    Hello,
    The front panel audio speaker output is reversed when using headphones on my K8N Neo Platinum and Antec Sonata case. If I swap the left and right front panel audio output signal connectors, the headphone speakers are fine, but then my normal front speakers are reversed. All other connectors seem to be plugged in correctly. I've tried using nvswap, but doesn't seem to work on nForce3. Currently using Realtek driver version 5.10.0.5620 (had the same problem with the drivers included on mb cd) on WinXP Pro SP1 and 5.1 speaker setup (would like to use FPA for mic/headphones while gaming).
    Let me know if you need any additional info.
    Thanks.

    I am having the same problem as well.  Was able to correct front output jack by switching the connections.  But rear audio is still backwards.  I havent tried any sort of 5.1 or 7.1 channel audio setups

  • Different sound quality from back and front panels

    I posted https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=112384.0
    but no one answered
    Well, I have another related problem and a question:
    1. Why does sound differ if I plug my headphones into the back panel jack from that I get from my front panel jack?
    2. Is this by design?
    3. Can I change it (make sound from front like that from the rear)? How?
    4. Is this influenced by Windows Sound settings (speakers > advanced > headphones or speakers)? Could you please give more info on these settings (I could not find that anywhere!)
    The major problem is that my phones sound too twittery, almost no bass, whereas the speakers plugged into the rear jack are OK. Please help!
    My Windows is not English, so some names may be incorrect, sorry
    I have WinXP Pro, MSI P965 Neo-F, Realtek ALC883
    I tried Technics RP-F500 and AKG K-44 headphones, they both sound alike
    I mostly listen to mp3s

    hmm.. I do not aware of this, is this very significant?
    I think you should check with MSI. goto MSI support site and post your problem.

  • XFI front panel digital out probl

    Ive had an xfi card for a while now, the xtreme pro gamer, i've loved it, and i wanted to upgrade and get the front panel for 80$, so i did, hoping i could connect my 5. headset threw fiber optic rather than the analog, and my 000 watt surround sount threw digital coax. The only reason?I didnt buy the flex jack module was because?I need a port for a mic.
    Well i got it yesterday and everything seems to be working, exept for the fact that it doesnt recodnize my back speakers?on either one,?my headset and surround sound in my room.
    Just?the front speakers, center and sub are recodnize, so wen i go into my thx console in game or entertainment mode, and i?click the back speakers to make a sound, the sound comes from the front speakers ...wtf ,
    Secondly on my heaset base?the?dolby Pro Logic light is on..shouldn't the Dolby Digital Light be on.
    Sombody plz help, this is driving me nuts.
    just cause i know you will all ask, my in room surround sound is a 000watt phillips 5. surround sound home theater system
    and my headset is this .. http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...94&sku=T26-090
    my headset worked beutifally before , wen connected by analog, i was hoping it would be better with fiber optic..

  • How do I cause a vi to sent the contents of it's Front Panel Indicators out to STD OUT?

    I inherited an intermixed bag of software tools that are called from Command Line Interfaces I would like to add some code that I have written in LabVIEW to this bag. The only problem I have at the moment is getting anything that looks like a standard output argument from LabVIEW.  Is this possible? For example lest say I have a vi that performs a number of tests based on input criteria at the completion of the tests the indicators on the front panel look like oh say,  a Boolean that says Pass, a string that says Unit Name, and an array of strings that holds the names of the tests run, and a numeric that indicates the number of tests performed. How can I pass these values to STD OUT?

    an old thread I know but wanted to share this howto use a LabVIEW executable with SystemExec
    - pass your command line arguments by using the LabVIEW Application Property Node App.Args
    - write to std out using System.Console.WriteLine
    - write to std err using System.Console.OpenStandardError (string2byteArray, see screenshot)
    This solution is pure .net and works for 32 and 64bit systems.

  • Front aufio line out L/R reversed, backplate ok on Antec Sonata

      Did they wire this wrong on the case connector?  My L/R is reversed only on the front jack, and I connected using the 10 pin single connector.   Probably the Antec connector was wired wrong, cause I dont think you can insert the plug reversed.
     Anyone ever see this issue?

    Well, Well, Well...
    After reading this I thought I'd try shifting the audio balance to left and right while playing a track in Winamp.  OK for my desktop speakers which shifted left and right correctly.  Hooked up my headphones to the front audio connecter and did the same and the left and right are indeed reversed!!!  Just opened the case and swapped over the AUD_FPOUT L/ AUD_RET L with the opposite (R)ight pins and now the left and right balance is correct!
    I'd actually been thinking lately that the audio didn't sound quite right.  Enemy appears on the right but I'm sure I heard him on the left.  That explains it.  This is not the the first time I've had a board with transposed pins though.  On my last Gigabyte board the polarity was incorrect on my HDD light and Power led, had to swap them over to get them to work...
    Cheers Horseman for pointing this out

  • Sound Blaster Z - how set autodetect connected headphones (into front panel connector)

    Hello,
    how can I set autodetect connected headphones into front panel on my new Sound Blaster Z?
    I have used to use my onboard soundcard (only to my headphones) together with AMD R290X soundcard (via HDMI to Onkyo receiver).
    Onboard soundcard was set as default audio device in Windows. So If I connected my headphones into front pannel connector, play only my headphones. If I disconnect headphones, onboard soundcard was disabled and soundcard on R290X was now only active audio device, so music playing only from my speaker (receiver Onky via HDMI on AMD R290X).
    Now if I connect my headphones, I have to manualy switch audio device unit in Windows control panel between "SoundBlasterZ" and "R290X HDMI".
    It is very annoying. Is there any way to figure it out?
    Sorry for my bad english, I hope you understand my problem.
    Thank you!

    Hi prachart,
    You will need to set Sound Blaster Z as the default playback audio device in the window control panel -> sound -> playback. Make sure you connect the physical connector from the front panel to the Sound Blaster Z card. This will let you plug into the headphone and able to playback. However, the AMD R290X HDMI port will not be able to have any sound as the default playback device set to Sound Blaster Z and it will not automatically release control and toggle to the available plug-in device.
    You will need to go to control panel to toggle again if you want to have the sound from the HDMI port.
    I am sorry if the above are not much help but this is the design implementation of the sound card so that there is no compromise in the sound quality.

  • Does Front Panel Audio Work When Using RCA Outputs from the X-Fi Titanium HD PCIe Sound Card?

    I see that the rear panel headphone output is disabled when the soundcard RCA jacks are used.
    But is it possible to have the front panel audio output work at the same time that the RCA jacks are in use or is it also disabled?
    I am willing to tolerate inferior quality audio feeding my monitor and use the RCA jacks for my headphone amp.

    I was able to construct a work around for this problem. A Y splitter from the RCA outputs is an option but can degrade the sound because of the uneven load presented to the soundcard.
    Ten eleven inch Apevia CVTAUDIOE25 HD Audio extension cables were connected together in series to a SilverStone FP32 3.5 audio front panel bay. The extension cables were connected to the front panel audio connectors on the Titanium HD sound card and then the cables were run out of the computer case and up to the area near my keyboard. I connected the front panel audio bay to the extension cable and the bay sits next to the keyboard. When no 3.5 mm stereo cable is connected to the front bay near the keyboard the sound is normal out of the rear outputs. But when a 3.5 mm audio cable is plugged into the front panel bay audio there is sound out of the SilverStone front panel bay. The sound is still muted out of the rear RCA jacks when the plug is put in the front bay but it is only used when the main audio outputs are not required.
    The function for me is that the front bay serves the same purpose that the previous front panel 3.5 mm audio extension cable did.
    There are photos of this under a different user name on Audio Asylum PC Audio.

  • Connecting front panel audio(case) to x-fi xtreme mu

    Hi,
    Im trying to connect the front panel mic and headphone jacks on my antec sonata 2 case to my x-fi xtreme music s card,here is what i have/havent found out:?.after 2 hours of trying ,then 35 seconds of looking here,i tried to stick the mics jack into the wired remote mic jack of my t7900 speakers thinking it would work,can someone pls clarify that input on wired remote is ONLY for mp3 players etc,and not for microphones?2.there appears to be a way of connecting the single pins coming from my front audio panel on case(there is also a 0 pin block ,but that doesent fit,i think it for intel something or other) to the long 0 strip pin thing on the x-fi card,i have see various diagrams on the net etc,but some different,most labelled -0 but i dont know which one is and one is 0 etc....again,if any? one can explain how i could do this pls?3.is it just easier to buy the x-fi 5.25inch front panel jobbie,if the above is not possible?,and if so i have problems sourcing that too anywhere in uk?srry for asking so many questions,but im a bit peeved to have all this gear,go out to buy a headset and mic for playing games,and find out its harder than the krypton factor to set up... many thanks in advance?sc_

    Lazy to search? It's been here (and there) 'bout thousand times already so it shouldn't be hard to find...
    ?....actually no,i thought my post clearly stated that i had seen conflicting posts and diagrams with regards to which was the right way to conenct the headers to the pins,and i was just looking for clarification. I apologise if i wasent clear in enough in this. Anyway,thankyou for taking yor time to respond and i will look into the link you gave me and see if its a good solution. Incidenatlly,another thought occured to me this morning.As i have the t7900 wired remote sat on my desk its entirely possible to run a?3.5mm male/female jack extension from the mic input of my x-fi card and place it next to my wired remote,having the mic jack of headset in this extension,and the headphones jack in the wired remote input.....is this a viable solution,and would this not compromise quality?again ty for your time. sc_

  • Audigy 2 card with Audigy Front Panel not worki

    I've just bought a used audigy 2 card with an audigy front panel. I have installed everything and have sound from the card to my speakers.
    The front panel has a blinking light on the optical out and when I plug headphones into the panel, I can hear static and control the volume of the static from the knob on the panel.
    I can't hear anything else through the headphone jack and can't get any input signal using the line 2 input on the front panel.
    Connections and drivers appear to be OK, am I missing something......
    Thanks,Dave.

    David,
    If you go into the surround mixer or Windows mixer do you see a listing for the front panel inputs (line in2/mic in2, Aux 2, etc)? If so, are any of them muted? If you go to start/programs/Creative/SB Audigy/Audio HQ/Device Settings, do you show a headphone tab? If so what options are enabled in there?
    Double check your ribbon cable connection and maybe even swap sides of the cable.

  • Humming noise when I connect my sound card to my band mixer H

    Hello,
    This is driving me nuts. What I'm trying to do is connect my pc through my Audigy 2 pci card to my band mixer so I can play tracks through my main system. I know the cords aren't the problem because they are high quality and they work fine in other applications. What could be some of the causes and/or solutions for this buzzing/humming sound that emanates.
    The connection starts at my external sound card with an /8" stereo phono plug that splits to two RCA's. These then connect to the back of my mixer into one of the "Line In" ports. Then the mixer signal is sent to a crossover and then to two amps for highs and lows and out to the speakers. I can hear the music but there is a steady HUM. It doesn't do it with my laptop with a cheap internal sound output but as soon as I plug into the Audigy 2 the hum is there. I already tried all volume controls in sound blaster and that did nothing to the level of hum. I was hoping someone could give me a checklist of things to examine so I don't waste hours trying everything. Thanks so much. Frank

    You don't mention if you want to connect the card into TV through analog or digital path. I suppose you mean digital.
    Flexijacks Digital Out supports stereo SPDIF (coaxial) out and pass through of multichannel DVD sound. You'll need at least a mono minijack to RCA (female or male) adapter/cable :
    <img alt="" src="http://www.audiogear.com/Resources/AdptMnitoRcaF.jpg" width="76" height="58">
    or an adapter or cable which converts the stereo minijack into two (female or male) RCA connectors:
    <img alt="" src="http://www.audiogear.com/Resources/adpt-2RcfMsmS.jpg" width="42" height="20">?
    OR an adapter cable (RCA end by the RCA cable you have there (male/female)):
    <img alt="" src="http://www.audiogear.com/Resources/Adpt2RcfMsm.jpg" width="95" height="6">?
    For digital connection, connect the cable through FlexiJack ... when you use stereo cable/adapter then the black/white cable carries the digital signal in the other end.
    For analog connection, the best analog output from X-Fi card? can be taken through Line Out (see the X-Fi manual for connection diagrams).
    For Optical Digital OUT from FlexiJack an additional compnent is needed

  • K8NGM2-FID - connecting of front panel audio (AC'97)

    Hello,
    I have a K8NGM2-FID based pc running XP Prof. I have a Chieftec LCX-01B-B-SL case with front panel audio. This panel is compatible with AC'97 standard. PIN Assigment of the internal Frontpanel connectors for Audio is below described:
    I red in manual of my mobo:
    "The JAUD1 front panel audio connector allows you to connect to the front panel audio and is compliant with Intel® Front Panel I/O Connectivity Design Guide."
    I red Front Panel I/O Connectivity Design Guide (downloaded from intel site) and:
    "2.3.3 Audio Design Considerations
    Front panel audio design in conjunction with motherboard audio header design is dependant upon the type of audio CODEC being used on the motherboard. In the past, AC97 Integrated Audio CODECs were prevalent. With the introduction of Intel High Definition Audio, many new motherboard designs are switching over to High Definition (HD) audio CODECs. Designersshould note that AC’97 and Intel High Definition Audio front panel motherboards and I/O cardsimplementations are different and may not be directly compatible or interchangeable
    CAUTION
    It is strongly recommended that motherboard designers only use Intel® HD Audio analog front panel dongles with the Intel® HD Audio analog front panel header to insure that the jack detection and dynamic re-tasking capability is preserved. Passive AC’97 analog front panel dongles (ones which leave the 5V Analog pin-7 line unconnected on the dongle) may be used with the Intel® HD Audio analog front panel header. But note that the front panel jack detection and re-tasking functionality will be lost as the AC’97 jacks cannot support connection to the SENSE line. In addition, software must be aware that an AC’97 dongle is being used with an Intel® HD Audio analog header since the software might need to dedicate codec ports that are connected to the header to meet the product’s intended functionality.
    2.3.4.4 AC’97 Header Pin Jumpers
    The rear panel audio output jacks are disabled when headphones are plugged in. If the front panel interface board is not connected to the front panel audio header, jumpers should be installed across header pin pairs 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, and 9-10. If these jumpers are not installed, the rear panel line out connector will be inoperative and microphone input pins 1 and 3 will be left floating, which could lead to elevated back panel microphone noise and cross talk.
    NOTE
    Motherboards that have the foot print for a front panel header, but depopulate the front panel audio header must have 0 ohm resistors as options to connect the FP_OUT and FP_RETURN signals. These resistors must be installed when the header is depopulated to insure audio is routed
    to the back panel."
    Can I connect this front panel audio to front Panel Audio Connector (JAUD1) of K8NGM2-FID (Realtek High Definition Audio)? Will it be work correctly?

    No I don't think it will, I had the same problem with my Coolermaster Centurion case, the pin out configs are different. I just left it disconnected, and didn't worry about it
