Can anybody shed some light on this matter?
Maybe this

64mb Xram on Fatal1ty/elite pro--- used for soundfonts/DSP or just games?

I found the documentation on the use of the 64mb Xram included on the fatal1ty and elite pro Xi-Fi cards. I read that the Xram allows for larger samples and better performance in games, but did not find any specific references to its function in Soundfont playback or music production.

Elite Pro Remote Control and

Hi there!
First of all: I already searched the forums, but was not able to find what i was looking for.
As I got back to my XP after using Vista I recognized that there is no "Creative Enterteinment Center" for XP, which was necessary for the usage of the remote control under Vista.
So... what now?

Honestly I can not believe that there is no way to solve this problem.
I am sure that there is somebody out there that uses the Elite Pro with XP who's RC works fine.
I already tried to install that MediaSource-Program, but I have not found any options to activate the RC.
In the meantime I found out, that there has to be a RCMAN.EXE running, which is responsible for the RC.
But now after I have installed everything I could, I ask myself where the heck that task is. Which program runs that task?

Elite Pro and vista, creative console resets after ever reb

So, I've given up trying to search for the answer and I have no clue how to go about fixing this problem.
If I boot into visata 32 Ultimate, and go and setup my audio console the way I like it then reboot, it will reset itself to defaults when I boot back into windows.
basically its not saving my configuration. Why does this happen and how can I fix this? It doesn't sound the same as the Digital output resetting itself. I have the latest drivers installed on a clean slate...why does this still happen?
its friggen annoying!

yep , i see they are supported, the same is mentioned on the drivers download page,
it states that DTS has been re enabled on devices that supported it on XP when they were originally released.
so i have the elite pro, wich supported dd and dts, and still i get no sound form any dvd in dts or even sound from my PS3 input via optical to the external I/0 of the elite pro.
and i have been told that i would need to buy the dts pack.
why ? when i already paid ?250 for the card that supported it from the moment i bought it ?
dts input support was one of the reasons i bought this card in the first place.
i might as well sell this and use my onboard optical output and buy an amplifier that supports dts, at least then ill know that there are no drivers/support problems
?creative you might make the best sound cards out there but that alone only gets you half way there. us customers we need support and value for our money?
not u trying to rip us off

Any install DVD for X-fi Elite pro with Win 7 ?

hello all of you, i wonder if there will be an install dvd for?X-fi Elite Pro on Win?7? and if so , where can i download it, is there an?other solution for the installation, instead of the Vista install dvd
Thanks for your help?

I've since run a few more tests and have confirmed that my X-Fi is the hardware that is making my system lockup. I disabled it in the device manager and was able to play games all day with no problems, but with no sound of course. I also tried uninstalling all software related to the X-Fi and uninstalling the drivers, removing the card, restarting then reinstalling the hardware software and drivers. But the problem starts again while listening to music, playing games, or even watching video online or of my hard disk.

X-fi elite Pro Driver for Windows 7 64bit

)X-fi elite Pro Driver for Windows 7 64bitH Hi all
I've read in the past and toady some topics about the x-fi drivers and windows 7.
Due to the fact, that I want to install win7 64bit in the next few days, i just want to know which drivers I should use for my Elite Pro.
Currently I'm using XP and got no problems with the drivers yet, everything could be installed with the cd from my elite pro package.
So as far as I understood the topics correct, there are 3 option which drivers i could use:
. Orignal Creative windows 7 driver
2. Daniel_k support pack
3. Pax drivers
Can anyone tell me the advantages or disadvantages of these drivers? Important for me are the "gaming" utilities and THX for my 7. Teufel system.
Which dirvers should i use and work without problems?

- i have? windows 7? 64 bit
? and having trouble with an older version
? SOUNDBLASTER AUDIGY PLATINUM ex
? i cannot get it to open mixers, or other Audigy functions.
? even with downloading Windows 7 driver from Creative.

X-Fi Elite Pro, can't hear PS2/X

Hello. I tried to search the forums, but I either searched poorly or I couldn't find a similar issue.
Here's the problem -- I can't hear either my PS2 or my Xbox using the Elite Pro on my PC.
Hardware:
[The good part]
PC does not have on-board audio for the motherboard (no need to flip a BIOS switch).
I have the SoundBlaster X-Fi Elite Pro PCI card plugged into an open PCI slot on the motherboard.
I installed the drivers from the CD as per the instructions. After the drivers are installed, and the reboot occurs, I can hear my normal PC sound perfectly through my headphones (I only have headphones. Speakers will come later).
Initial hardware check - PASS.
[The bad part]
I plug the two RCAs (Left/Right) from my PS2 into the back of the Elite Pro exterior console.
I plug my Xbox into the back of the exterior console as well, only this time into the optical input using Monster cabling.
That's what I have set up. No matter what I've tried as far as configurations go on the software side, I cannot hear these two devices. Either through the fancy-graphics Creative Console Launcher, or from XP (SP2)'s Control Panel > Sound options... I just can't hear anything (Playback or Recording options, Mute boxes, volume sliders, etc). I've also tried flipping the Aux2/Phono switch on the back of the exterior console and then trying everything I already tried all oer again.
I'm at a loss as to why I can't hear anything. I went to the store and picked up a RCA-to-Stereo converter and plugged the PS2 into the Microphone/Line-In port on the exterior console, and I could hear the PS2 through that. There are several reasons why that is an insufficient fix to my problem: ) I'd like to hook up the Xbox and PS2 at the same time. 2) I play World of Warcraft, and need the microphone slot freed up so that I can speak to my guild, and not have to crawl behind my machine every time I want to switch what I'm doing. 3) I paid for the Elite Pro specifically so that I could set all this up.
If anyone has any suggestions, by all means let me know!Message Edited by Gimpifier on 09--2006 09:48 PMMessage Edited by Gimpifier on 09--2006 09:49 PM

Ok, as you see in the picture, there are several mixer stri
ps.
All of them are related to the upper tabs. So:
The Inputs tab bares all the available inputs on your rack and PCI card (just Line In for the latter).
The Multi-Channel Wave tab bares all the outputs available on your rack and the PCI.
Those two tabs are the most important right now.
As I noted earlier, the problem occures either from a mute selection in the Auxiliary 2 strip or a 0% setting to the volume slider of the same strip. Otherwise, you are routing the Aux2 to an output not connected to your speakers. From what I see, no "Mute On" is apparent and you are routing every input to Front L/R Output. Have you tried plugging your headphones to Front L/R and select "2/2." as speakers?
You should also select the monitoring to "Recording" and not to "Playback" (found at the blue field, bottom right). This will enable you to see the input level for your recording source (Aux2 in your case, correctly selected by you).
Your speaker selection is set to "Headphones". Are they connected to the front output?
It might be better to do some troubleshooting. So:
What is the real problem?
No signal from Aux2 input?
No signal from the headphones output?
You say that:

The RCAs are li've and working. If I use the Stereo adapter, I can plug them into Mic-In/Line-In and I can hear them if I swap to Line-In. The problem is getting them to work as they are intended, so that I don't have to monkey behind the PC when I want RCA audio.
Can you be mor specific on this? Li've and working? You mean li've from the PS2? Get them to work as intended?

3d without glasses versus current pioneer elite pro-151fd

Just a general question to the group:    Currently I own a pioneer elite pro-151fd of which I bought 2 yrs ago from BB and had it professionally calibrated after 200hrs of play--to this day--I haven't seen a flat panel that competes w/ the elite except for the Bang and Olsefuen at 5 times the cost,, the elite black levels and color depths are massive,,,   do you agree ??   what will be the technology that will overtake the quality level of the pioneer elite "s , when ?? and will there a 3d version of that technology that will be without glasses ??    as a side question--is there anything that could be done as a additional piece of hardware that will become available to convert 2d to 3d without glasses ??

Yes I agree. Nothing today is as good as the Pioneer Kuro technology was.
what will be the technology that will overtake the quality level of the pioneer elite "s , when ??
I think it will still be plasma. When Pioneer stopped production they sold their Kuro tecnology and patents to Panasonic. Panasonic has been slowly incorporating aspects of the Kuro into their lineups and improving on that technology. Many think plasmas are dying but they are not. They will still be around for awhile.
and will there a 3d version of that technology that will be without glasses ??    Eventually but not for another few years. Several companie have already made demo models but there are massive issues with them that prevent them from mass production. Issues such as very poor viewing angles and the cost to produce is so high that the cost of the TV would be prohibitive for mass consumer consumption.

What are the flat frequency settings for bass & treble knobs on X-Fi Elite Pro?

Ok, I have the X-Fi Elite Pro and I need to set its bass & treble levels (volume control panel) to a flat frequency response setting. I noticed that the default value given by creative is 50% for bass level and 50% for treble level. So, what is the flat frequency response setting for bass and treble knobs? 0% or 50%?
Kind regards
Message Edited by Hyperion on 11-14-2008 08:26 PM

Ok, I get the picture. The reason why I asked this question came up when I bought a new set of monitors (the Edirol MA-15DBK). I found out that after changing speakers (I had a set of Philips SPC-3208) the new ones were set to 0% boost/cut for bass/treble, but the sound came out quite bassy in an almost irritating level. So, I thought that maybe my card's bass levels were somewhat boosted. I guess now some lower frequencies are revealed, so I have to take care of my room acoustics. However the reviews for the Edirols gave low bass levels, so this gets more complicated. I am still in a 30-days trial, so maybe I will have a look at the Gigaworks T40 series II and I'll see what happens then...

Audio setup / MEDIACENTER theatertek - x-fi elite pro - denon AVC-A1XV receiver - speak

I read all the various posts and faq... however I do not get it.
I would like to see movies with theatertek on my mediacenter (sp/dif out) which has an x-fi elite pro card. I use optical cable to the Denon AVC-AXV receiver. Now I only get the front speakers no surround.
Probably I just have to bypass the sound card... but how? I would like not to use analog connections..
Sorry for the questions... but the explanations just do not help.

Open Audio Console, go to the decoder tab and select 'DD/DTS Bitstream Out'. On the DVD software you have to select SPDIF-Out as the audio renderer. If you have installed and enabled?the On-Screen Display it will appear a DD/DTS logo with the legend 'Bitstream' instead of the regular logo.

X-Fi Elite Pro: Implementation of Effects in M

Hi
Can someone please help me here? It's quite urgent.
I only just switched over to X-Fi from SB Li've yesterday. I'm missing a few things which IMO shouldn't be this difficult to find. If the manuals were printed, they'd basically be good for nothing more paper weights so I do hope someone here will be able to assist me.
Before I start I should probably mention that I'm in Audio Creation Mode.
. EAX presets: When I open the EAX controls in the Audio console, there are no presets plus the preset window is blanked out. The help file says that one should select a preset from the list but given the afore mentioned info, this proves to be somewhat impossible. How do I make the preset window acti've and get presets into it's
2. Auxiliary Effects:
a. In the SB Li've's EAX controls, one was able choose with which MIDI controller to send triggers for EG. a Multi-Tap Echo. If I understand it correctly, the MIDI implementation chart in the manual (which I stumbled upon by accident) seems to indicate that Auxiliary effect 3 is triggered by Controller 92 and Aux 4 by controller 94. However, I get zero response from either Auxiliary when triggering either of the 2 controllers. How do I trigger Aux effect 3 & 4 from my sequencer? Also I don't get any response from Aux 3 & 4 on the Wave channel of the mixer.
b. Is there a better delay unit than the "Digital Delay"? The fact that Tap can only go to 207milliseconds and Tap2 to only 404milliseconds, makes it totally useless for a /4 note echo of anything slower than 48.5BPM. The SB Li've's Multi-tap used to be able to go into the thousands. I'm unable to hear what it sounds like since I can't get Aux 3 & 4 to work.
I hope someone will be able to help me.
Thanx in advance

Hi
Pardon me if I seem a little sinical in this post. It's just that I don't like buying a new and expensi've piece of equipment and having to do a runaround trying to fix problems which shouldn't have been there in the first place.
It's a pitty that problems one has with a new piece of equipment or software almost always is fixable with something that would appear to be user incompetance when in fact it's the result of poor documentation. Anyway, thank you to the support team who helped me out. It would have been nice, though, if my more specific issues were answered concisely and not left completely unanswered.
I thought I'd post the solution if someone could benefit from it:
If you had previously run a Sound Blaster Li've! Platinum before installing X-Fi Elite Pro and you find that Auxiliary effects 3 & 4 doesn't work, it's likely that some of the previous SB Li've drivers had not been completely removed from your system. To do this you have to do a clean sweep of your previous installation (which I would have though should be handled by the uninstall program). Anyway, here's a link to a support page which describes how to accomplish this:
http://us.creative.com/support/kb/article.asp?l=3&sid=72
and then click on the appropriate link.
One problem I had is that the CTZAPXX.EXE mentioned in the procedure doesn't appear on the driver disk that came with my SB Li've! Platinum. Fortunately I have a SB Li've 24bit as well and the app was on that driver disk.
After going through the procedure as mentioned above, the 2 Auxiliary effects still did not work. I then installed the new drivers (Update 4) as available on Creative's Driver Page on 2 Dec 2006. At last it worked. A word of caution: Make sure you exit the Creative Volume Panel before installing Update 4. Otherwise, nothing will work as it should.
OK so that fixed my auxiliary effects not working.
I had to answer my MIDI controller question myself by testing with 0-27 values as the reply from support ignored this question amongst others completely. In all fairness, though, the MIDI implementation chart did tell me where to start the trial and error and reduced the test time considerably. And here's the result: Controller 92 does in fact control the strength of Aux 3 and Controller 94 controls Aux 4. There, that sentence took me like what? ...0 seconds to write.
That leaves my other 2 questions:
. Where has the presets gone under the EAX tab of the Audio Console when in Audio Creation Mode? There are 7 or 8 of them in Game mode but only a blanked out window in Audio Creation Mode.
2. Is there a better delay unit available anywhere which allows for longer delay times. The current one is actually closer to a reverb unit than a delay unit as there are many reverb units with longer delay times than this.
OK, so enough raving. Thanx for the help from support.

1820M or Xi-Fi Elite Pro with Home Studio XL - Please advise

Setting up a system
Already have Home studio XL
Could you give me some thoughts on the 1820M or Xi-Fi Elite Pro?
The good the bad and the ugly.
Seems like there is a lot of bad and ugly out there

If you look a little bit around in the forum, you will find the answer very fast.
At the moment all the creative X-Fi cards are only able to deli'ver stereo sound through coax and optical cable. The only way you will get DTS is, if you use the digital sound from DVDs via PowerDVD, but that 5. sound comes not from the soundcard, it is directly from the dvd dri've and will just your soundcard as a walkthrough.
The only soundcard I've seen atm, that is able to handle 5. digital sound with X-Fi features is the "Auzentech X-Fi Prelude". I couldn't test the soundcard yet, but will buy it probably very soon.

how is it connected?
if you use a hdmi to dvi converter then you only get picture and not audio because dvi don't carry audio same with vga

5.1 sound X-Fi elite pro and DTT3

Hi all?Ok, so I have an X-Fi Elite Pro, and the DTT3500 speaker setup from Creative. Both very expensi've where I li've. I could get 5. sound from my SB Li've! 5. digital, but no such luck on the X-FI. I've read all the posts, but when speaking to Creative tech support they tell a different story. I know I can get 5. (supposedly) from DVD etc. via co-ax or optical. How do I get 5. from other apps (such as VideoStudio) or games (BF242, etc.) that do not output DD or DTS?I've tried flexi jack to DIN (from card rear panel to the speaker amp), DIN to DIN (from break-out box to speaker amp) and 3 x 3.5mm stereo to DIN (from card rear panel to speaker amp) Nothing works. I get headphone sound obviously, and can get plain stereo sound (although I didn't get this setting right for optical; works with co-ax though)?(excerpt from tech support mail)
To assist you, i would suggest to connect the DDT3500 to the soundcard using the 3.5mm jack and the DIN Cable provided directly to the soundcard through the Digial In and DIN Socket.. enable the "Bit-Steam off" in the Audio Console, 2. select " Digital DIN" on the DTT3500 FacePlateIn case if you need any clarification, please do not hesitate to contactus.(/end excerpt)?I have made up a cable with 3 x 3.5 mm stereo jacks > DIN and got no sound at all from this. Tried all my solutions with digital I/O both on and off.?This is all very limiting, as apart from games that I'd like to enjoy as they're meant to be played, I also do video editing and need to proof my surround mixes. Not very happy Creative. Even the tech guy where I bought the card assured me it would work with 5....

I have never installed the updated applications available in the download page... just applications and driver for Vista 64bit inside the cd and i updated the driver with the latest one. Anyway, I: Reformatted and installed Vista.
Installed Chipset Drivers.
Installed Video Drivers.
Downloaded and installed JUST the latest SB drivers and i have that **bleep**-ing error window...Guys, it's 2 years i try to install Vista...Have i to destroy this sound card If i have to change it, i'll never buy another creative product in all my life (and till today i have bought 3 sound cards, 2 webcam, 4., 5. and 2. speakers for every computer we have in the office...). Thanks p.s.What is the DMLL.exe service, please
If i enter in the "Task Bar" is visible... if i close it and i restart the computer i find it... How can i delete it forever

XFI Elite Pro to Inspire 5500 speakers, no rear so

I have an xFI Elite Pro and some Inspire 5500 Digital Surround Sound speakers. If I initiate a test from the remote that controls the Speaker's "brain" I get all surround points working just fine, so I know they are connected properly from there. From the "brain" I have the /8th" cable that came with the speakers for a digital connection to a soundcard connected to the flexjack on the back of the soundcard part of the xFI and it is set to Digital I/O. Whenever I initiate a test from the Creative Software, when it says "rear right" and "rear left", it comes out the front speakers. I have the CMSS turned off . I have the decoding turned off on the sound card cause the speakers take care of the decoding. What am I doing wrong? Please help, thanks.

Well,
I went back to gigabyte.com.tw and this time, there were new BIOS available ... I still don't understand why they weren't there yesterday ..
Anyway, I updated to F6 (latest version) and ... sound is still very low, crappy, crackkkkking and so on ..
I'm gonna throw this through the window :'(
