Enabling 5.1 Audio with Soundblaster 24

Hello everyone. Im not sure how many times in the past this question has been asked, but i searched the board for it with no luck. Anyways, i have the soundblaster li've 5. 24bit, and the question i have is how do i actually enable the 5. sound? I know i can go into the EAX Console and it creates an emulation of 5. by playing the same thing through all channels, but I was wondering if there was a way to enable 5. for movies and music dvds. Im using the Logitech x-530 if that helps any. Thanks for your time guys!Message Edited by dusoe on 0-0-2005 2:49 AM

I have gotten conflicting answers as far as connecting the digital audio cable to the soundcard. At first I was told that I would need to do this to get digital audio, but the local computer store tells me that with Windows XP there is no need to use the cable. So, to make a long story short, I connected the cable just to make sure . I get true 5. audio and I am using Cyberlink Power DVD player. One thing that you may want to check is that in the audio options of your player you are choosing the 5. audio option. Even if you are using analog connections you should choose the SPDIF option in your DVD player as it will send the digital info to the sound cound and then Audigy will convert it to the analog outputs. I did this and get amazing sound !

  • Can't enable recording for Audio tracks with H2 Zoom

    I'm running Logic Express 7 on a Macbook Pro Intel.
    I used to record vocals with the H2 Zoom as an external mic. But since I ran an update on Logic, I can no longer enable recording for Audio tracks for recording as soon as I connect the H2.
    Interestingly, it let's me only choose an H2 output driver.
    Connecting the same device to Garageband I can choose both, H2 output driver and H2 input driver.
    Anyone else facing this problem? Advice is greatly appreciated.

    You have to set it up using the aggregate device editor (utilities folder). In the utilities folder open AUDIO MIDI setup. From the menu select Audio>Open Aggregate device editor. Add a new aggregate device and name it zoom. Selelct H2 auidio in and H2 Audio out. Check the clock next to H2 Audio out only. Make the Zoom aggregate device you just created your default input in the systems setting area of the audio midi setup form. Close Audio Midi Setup and return to Logic. You may need to restart logic. You should now see "Zoom" in Preferences>Audio> Core audio> Device and you should be able to record using the H2.
    Hope this helps

  • Dubbing Audio with ASUS P6T WS Pro motherboard ADI AD2000B Audio CODEC

    I am trying to dub audio commentary into my clips using the SoundMAX program settings provided with the ASUS ADI AD2000B Audio Codec.  I have confirmed a microphone signal appears in SoundMAX and that PPro Audio Hardware Settings/Enable Devices has a check mark against 'Microphone(SoundMAX Integrated'.  The other unchecked device shown is 'Line In (SoundMAX Intergrated Di'.  When I set up the Audio Mixer with a mono Audio 4 channel, click the Audio 4 microphone icon to turn it on, turn off all other audio channels, click the record button, then speak into the microphone, no signal appears.  Unfortunately, I have not been able to confirm that I am providing ASIO audio to PPro.  I need to know if I am wasting my time trying to dub audio with the present setup or I am missing something.  If no ASIO is possible using the present setup, what audio card do you recommend?

    When you have your Mic input enabled in ASIO hardware setup, then in the audio mixer ou need to arm tracks with mic inputs then, then press the record button the input should be seen at this point. But to record you voice over onto time line you need to play the timeline. So that the targeted Audio Track will be recorded onto timeline. And after you stop playback you will se recorded audio.
    Good luck.

  • When I try to record audio with Soundflower, the recording has no audio. What am I doing wrong?

    I am an amateur DJ trying to record a mix made in Cross DJ. I followed a tutorial instructing me to use Soundflower to route my system audio to QuickTime and have had no problem routing. Yet when I record the audio with QuickTime, the recording plays no audio. What am I doing wrong? I really need this mix recorded and I have no intention of downloading extra software.

    This is because you have Punch on the fly enabled under Options (top menu)>Audio>Punch on the Fly.... signified by the letter P instead of the letter R

    Why do some videos play fine on Facebook while others have only audio with a green screen?

    Green screens are almost always indicative of a video driver issue.  Could you please post the contents of your "Display Devices" section after generating a DXDiag report?

    I suspect you might have an out of date video driver.  This FAQ can help you learn the steps required to update:

  • No audio with Audigy

    Well, I've spent days trying to get sound on vista and I'm still unsucessful. Hopefully, someone can help. I'll summarize my situation. . Installed the final version of Vista Ultimate 32bit on a new harddri've on my system. (nothing like a clean install). I still have my old HD in there as a slave and by changing the boot dri've in my BIOS I can easily revert back to my XP just in case I had problems with vista. 2. My motherboard is an ASUS A7V8X-X with an Athlon 2600+ processor. The motherboard has a built-in Realtek sound card. 3. Initially I had sound, but at some point it stopped. Unfortunately, I didn't notice it until I had no way of knowing what stopped it. So I tried installing the latest Realtek drivers and nothing would work so I decided to go out an buy a new sound blaster card that had vista drivers. Since I'm not heavily into "sound", I just purchase an inexpensi've Audigy SE card. 4. I uninstalled the Realtek driver from the devicemanager rebooted and change my BIOS to disable the on board sound card. 5. When vista booted I ran the install for the vista beta drivers for the Audigy SE. Still no sound. 6. Rebooted. Still no sound. 7. Changed the sound card to various PCI slots, rebooted, etc. Still no sound. 8. Just to make sure, I booted to my Windows XP dri've and installed the drivers and the sound works well. A little skippy I must admit, but it works none the less. 9. Another symptom is that my little speaker icon in the task tray has a red x on it and if you select to open it, it says, "No audio device is installed". 0. If you look at the card in the device manager it seems ok. . If you go to sounds in the control panel, the recording tab hangs the control applet. Does anyone have a clue what it going on?or how I can figure what to do to fix this. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks?

    This is getting stranger...
    I just found that some DVD movies do play OK with good audio.
    The DVDs which play without audio play OK on a set-top DVD player, however.
    Those same DVDs have also played with good audio with my internal Soundblaster card, so I'm assuming this is still an Audigy issue.

    How can I keep my audio track, delete a short segment of video, and reinsert a new video clip, without changing the audio with the way it lines up with the original video?

    If you have either iMovie 09 or iMovie 11 you can do this easily using the Cutaway feature.
    Go to iMovie/Preferences and make sure that the Advanced Tools are enabled.
    Now you jut drag and drop the 2nd clip onto hte first clip at the frame where you want the Cutaway to start. A popup menu will appear. Choose Cutaway.
    Here is a good Tutorial.
    If you have iMovie 08, let me know. There is a way to do it, but it is more complex.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    It is frustrating to find content not playable on Safari. Yahoo Music is one example. The Mac does come with adequate plug-ins - if only certain sites would cooperate too! Eventually, these limitations will go away. But for the moment there is a PC bias evident in certain web sites. When I run into the Safari wall, I use Firefox as an alternative. Seems it has an easier time with media content than Safari. Have you tried it?
    Not sure why you had problems with the WMP download? Flip4Mac, which lets you view Windows Media content through Quicktime, would be a good alternative for Windows Media Player.

  • KT4 Ultra--Replacing C-Media with SoundBlaster Card

    What's the best way to replace on board audio with a sound card? Do I have to go into the bios or fool with jumpers and turn off the on board audio  before I install the card and drivers? Or do I just uninstall the c-Media drivers?
    Thanks.

    Hi!
    Soundblaster is definately great card. I have owned several of them, latest one being Live Player 5.1. The sound quality of those cards were okay, but nothing spectacular. The situation was the same with Hercules Fortissimo II card I had.
    Now I'm using the 6 channel C-Media chip of my KT4 Ultra BSR -motherboard. After comparing the sound quality of Live Player, Fortissimo II & C-media chip I was quite surprised because the integrated chip delivers equal quality throught the speakers I use (SB 5100 5.1).
    So I sold thouse other cards & I'm very happy with the sound I have. One bonus with C-Media has been reliable & solid drivers (IMHO SB could learn something here
    PS. This KT4 Ultras BSR is rock solid & i really love it! :D

  • Final Cut Express won't capture audio with the video anymore, why?

    I have used Final Cut Express 4 for over a year now with no problems, but recently I am unable to capture any audio with the video from my camera. I can do it through iMovie no problem. I can't figure out if I changed a setting by accident because everything looks normal to me. Could another program be interfering with this? Quicktime Pro? I have no idea how to fix this.

    First of all, we need a bunch of information in order to help. Please provide the specs of the footage and the sequence you are using. Also, are you using DV, HDV, or AVCHD? Do you hear audio when the clip is played in the viewer, or is there no audio at all once the clip is captured/ingested?

    I can record from the microphone with with the command "recordmydesktop". I succeeded in recording the internal audio with audacity by choosing the device "looprec" for recordings. I'm not sure why RecordMyDesktop gives an error while Audacity does not. Below is my ~/.asoundrc, which I copied from the aforementioned thread. I am not knowledgeable, but I guess there is a mistake in it? Would you please assist me solving this error? Thank you for your time.

    XMP files remain with NEF files in my folder.  Camera Raw suddenly reset leaving my edits gone.  Will XMP files enable me to resume with those lost edits?

    I never tried this, but I'm pretty sure that with DNG files, Lightroom will ignore xmp files, even when you instruct Lightroom to "Read Metadata from File". Lightroom expects all the metadata to be in the DNG file, not in the xmp file.
    Pick flags, as far as I know, are never written to xmp file; nor are they written to DNG files.
    If you're going to make this transfer procedure work, you need to do it by either (a) embedding the metadata in the DNG file and send those back and forth; or (b) use RAW and xmp and then sending the xmp files back and forth (plus I guess you have to transfer the original RAW once to your editor)

  • No audio with video, website navigation impaired, I can no longer recommend Firefox

    I maintain the video site shaleshockmedia.org. I can no longer recommend Firefox to viewers because of the severe problem I have been experiencing: No audio with video; navigation often does not work. Maybe this is purely a local problem. Please let me know if the site is fully functional or not when you go there. There is no problem with Chrome or Safari. My computer is a Macbook Pro 3,1 Intel Core 2 Duo. MacOs 10.6.8

    Note that there are a lot of popular extensions that can cause issues with videos not working apart from issues with the Flash plugin.
    In what way is the navigation not working properly?
    Can you give some examples?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
