PCI Express X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty - headphon

I finally opted out of the onboard RealTek for my HTPC after installing Surround Sound this weekend.
The card recommended is the PCI Express X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Pro Series. Now that I've got it installed I am trying to determine if it is broken or the configuration is just whacked.
No matter what I do and how things are setup the Automatic Headphone Detection does not work and neither does the auto muting on connect of the headphones. I've tried three different headsets and all have the same result.
I should mention that the Line Out does dri've the headphones but the SPDIF Optical out is still on so both my receiver and headphones are on at the same time. For now I've been manually putting my receiver on Mute which is doable but I'd like to know if my card needs to be returned.
I also connected the Front Panel Azalia connector for my PC's front panel /8th jacks - these worked for my RealTek but do not work at all for the PCI Express X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Pro Series board. Any thoughts?

Although I could go with the champion series I originally purchased with the impression from the marketing materials the Titanium Fatalty would serve my needs - adding more hardware at a gerater cost isn't favorable particularly since this is outfitting a HTPC chasis where I already have a front panel audio breakout that is stylish.
I guess if I kept the board I could try and figure out the pinouts the I/O dri've uses for its headphones and rewire my HTPC chassis' frontpanel headphone jack.

HDMI connection through PCI Express X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro Series and Nvidia GTX 2951

Hello,
I want to connect HDMI connection through PCI Express X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Pro Series and Nvidia GTX 295\but i cant tell which of the pins on the Audio Card is the Spdif.

CRe: Mic not working (PCI Express X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Pro Series)? Hello,
Thanks for the reply.
The headset is connected via the 3.5mm jacks in the card.
I believe I have it working now. I ended up having to unstall the drivers and software, reboot, install drivers and software and then mess with the settings. The only issues that I am having now is that I hear a a really high sort of feedback/hiss tone from the headphones now. To correct this I have to turn the input for the microphone down really low within the Windows 7 controls for the microphone and turn it up with Ventrilo to get the mic to work and remove the feedback/hiss.
I believe that the issue stems from the flexjack setting. The whole flexjack thing really seems to mess with the microphone settings. I believe I choose line-in instead of microphone.
Once I get home tonight from work, I will hopefully post the exact settings I came up with to get the mic to work.

No EAX in games on PCI Express X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro

9No EAX in games on PCI Express X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Proo Hey all!
I am another seriously frustrated Creative customer who spend a lot of money on the most crappy hardware I have ever owned. :angry:
I own the PCI Express X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Pro and have problems getting EAX in OpenAL games. I think I finally got it to work in Trackmania but in Race Driver GRID I have no effects what so ever. A correct working X-Fi setup with GRID should sound like this.
I have tried almost anything by now - downloaded the latest OpenAL 2. from this forum, copied OpenAL files back and forth, tried daniel_k's latest driver package which gave me BSOD! Please - can someone help?
Rightmark via DirectSound and Alchemy works like a charm by the way - full EAX 4.0 supports etc.

Reverse audio channels (PCI express X-Fi titanium)

2Reverse audio channels (PCI express X-Fi titanium)& Hi,
Today I bought an X-Fi titanium *hoping* it would have the option in the drivers to reverse my left channel to right channel and vice versa.
I have gone through a lot of trouble trying to achieve this and would definitely appreciate the help in finding a solution.
Why do I need this? When playing games I hear everything reversed *IN MY HEAD*. If I hear something left... it's actually on the right. Thats why I have to either reverse my speakers or wear my headphones backwards. BUT... I have a 00$ headset that doesnt allow me to reverse my headset because it only wears one way.
My game doesnt allow me to reverse the stereo. Does the creative X-Fi software/driver allow this in *any* way?
I appreciate the help!

VLC media player can reverse than stereo chanels for music and movies but i don't know of a way to apply it to games. [email protected]

How to get WHAT U HEAR option for PCI Express X-Fi Titanium sound card and Windows 7

how to get WHAT U HEAR option for PCI Express X-Fi Titanium sound card and Windows 7 ? Is it on the basic driver? or do you have to install some other software?
jane

You have to install the rest of the software(s) for the sound card. The software is (if it is with the installation CD, though) called "Creative Smart Recorder" or something like that.

PCIe SB X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro Series - Crackling (when quad-SLI enabl

Hey Everyone
I just bought this card to upgrade from onboard but I'm having issues with crackling. It happens mostly when mousing over anything that reacts to the mouse pointer or graphically in any way. For example scrolling down a website causes major crackling and popping and it only happens when quad-SLI is enabled.
I have 2x 9800 GX2 running in SLI on an EVGA 790i Ultra SLI motherboard Vista 64 with 4GB DDR3 RAM both graphic cards and the sound card are running on IRQ 6
It's extremely annoying and it doesn't happen when the computer is just sitting there but as soon as stuff starts happening like videogames/videos/websites etc crackling can be heard.
I've updated to 2.7.5 and the problem is still there, motherboard BIOS, NForce drivers and video drivers are all up to date as well.
Is there any solution to this?

Yeah, I have this same problem also... I have 2 9800GX2 quad sli and when it's enabled i get crackling popping and then sometimes the sound cuts out!! Only with quad sli enabled..... I also have the 790i ultra and 4gb of ddr3@700mhz..... I believe that this is related to the graphics cards and the sound card sharing IRQ 6 which also happens to me. It gives all cards on the pci-express lanes the same IRQ 6!!! The reason it doesn't happen with onboard sound is because it gives the onboard irq 22. If someone could find a way within the bios to be able to change this or if this can be changed in a future driver update it would be great!! In the 790i bios it assigns the graphics cards and soun IRQ while onboard is IRQ 0! You can't assign an irq in the bios either! Only options are PCI or reserved!!!

X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty SPDIF out only...

having some issues here and been looking around but no luck. anyways my sound has stopped working. to elaborate in playback devices its now set to SPDIF out. and Speakers disappeared. Ive uninstalled the drivers and software. reinstalled with the driver from creative. didnt change anything. even formatted and reinstalled windows with no avail. im pretty much out of ideas... any help is much appreciated. running win7 x64 and PCI Express X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Champion Series

hi there!
http:// forums.creative.com/t5/Sound-Blaster/X-Fi-Titanium-HD-stop-working-and-recognized-only-as-quot-High/td-p/56979
as you can read I had the same problem as yours,my sound just gona after moving my mouse to get my pc back on from sleep mode,I tried everything,reinstall,dri've sweeper,reinstall graphic card,nothing seemed to work.
anyway I did a restore to factory settings from windows 7 restore(basiclly its a format with new and clean windows).
dont disable your onboard(it has nothing to do with your problem).
try another clean installation of windows BUT dont let windows automaticlly install updates from windows update,choose the "never install drivers from windows update" option,you can find it in my computer proporties in advance systam settings->hardware.
I googled about this problem and this is what giving you this problem.
after you install fresh windows,download the most updated drivers from creative website,dont use the disk.
update me if its working for you,if not I'll continue to help you as much as I can..

Thanks for the update although this I had personally worked this out myself. Surely this card is to be released globally soon as it has started to pop up in stores available for pre-order. Any ideas on the release date and what will be the differences?
I have tried to compare it to the Fatalty version to find no difference other than cosmetic. I even went into the FAQ page only to get this:

X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro PCI-Express + Striker II Formula

Hi, My First Post here at the Creative Forum - Hello Everyone. As usual the first post is a problem post. I have a [now rather dated - although it is under a year old !!] striker II Formula system with 2x 8800 GTX graphics cards. I upgraded the sound card which came with my motherboard with the X-Fi Titanium PCI express card. However because of
. The NB heatsink
2. The SLI configuration
I cannot see how this motherboard can actually accommodate the sound card. Any information how I can resolve this rather basic issue would be most appreciated [pictures would be nice]
Regards
Paul

The Titanium works fine in my x slot (using two video cards in my remainining 2 x6 slots.)?
So maybe it is a motherboard issue?
Do you still see the BSODs with just one video card and the sound card in the x slot?
Can you boot fine with the two video cards and no sound card?
When you say it destroys your display drivers, what do you mean, exactly?

SoundFX suddenly not working with PCI-Express SB Titanium and Windows 7 HP 64

Hi guys,
I bought myself a PCI-Express Sounblaster Titanium bulk last friday.
I downloaded some drivers (sorry, I have no idea what Version?) and an Update to the latest official Version (2.7.0007). When I first tried tu use VoiceFX it worked and I was astonished. Its seemed a real cool gimmick.
Strangely, when I tried it again the next day the VoiceFX buttons where still there under the Audio Config thingie, but my voice did not change anymore when I chose for ex. Robot or Ork. It did not matter what I chose, my voice always stayed normal.
Since then I've deen doing nothing else than to deinstall, reinstall drivers, deleting driver traces, trying again. My worst case was that the VoiceFX did not show at all anymore, my best case was as described above.
I even treid the new beta Drivers.
Does anyone have a solution?
If not, can anyone tell me what dependancies VoiceFX has? Is it enough to install only the drivers or does it need something else as well?
With which Driver Version does it definitely work under Win 7 64?
Oh yeah, I have I microphone which I can switch to Mono or Stereo, does it only work with one of the two? Mine was mostly in Stereo mode. (It comes from a company (dunno which one) thats got nothing to do with computers, games or creative, it's one of those Microphones you connect to your tie).
Thanks@all

Weird... I changed nothing and yeterday it worked...
I just understand this, but what the hell?

X-Fi Titanium PCI Express and DVD-A Player

*X-Fi Titanium PCI Express and DVD-A Playerg Hi Guys
Can anyone tell me if the Creative Mediasource DVD-A player works with the X-Fi Titanium PCI-E card under Windows 7, or indeed, at all. I've just bought a Titanium card and when I try to install the DVD-A player (latest version....) I get a message, 'Set up can't find any supported product...' That wouild be a bummer as I have a fair number of DVD-A discs and I would like to play them on my PC. I know that Power DVD 8 Ultra will play them but does it downmix the audio streams or something like that. I have a Pioneer DVD-A player but it is more convenient to play them this way if it is possible. I laso have Windows Vista so if it's only a problem with the OS that would be a start.
Anyway, any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you in anticipation
Best Regards
HarryM

Hi Guys
Many, many thanks for all your help with this.....NOT!!!!
I really hate it when you come to forum to ask for help and everybody fecking ignores you....was the question too hard for you. I thought it was really simple, does the DVD-A player work with this card under this OS or not. I at least thought some of the Creative mods might help, I've just spent my hard earned cash on this card after all. As it is an X-Fi card I thought the DVD-A player would work okay but it doesn't so maybe I'm doing something wrong but I don't know because I didn't get an answer.
Thanks a whole bunch guys

X-Fi Titanium PCI-Express: Are there Cracking & Popping issues with Battlefield 2 & 214

Ok, now Creative came out with X-Fi Titanium PCI-Express, which supposedly should fix the cracking and popping issues with Battlefield 2 and Battlefield 232 since Creative technical support said the probelm with X-Fi and Battlefield series lied in PCI bus. Now the new audio card is using PCI-E bus. So does anyone with X-Fi Titanium still hearing the cracking and popping sounds when artillery fires?

RB30, Do you also have the problem with your onboard audio?
I can only give you my experience and that is that the new titanium works in my set up and I do not have any popping issues in BF242. There are lots of hassles installing the drivers as detailed in other posts. Plus they treat the drivers like they are the crown jewels and do not have them for download on the web site.
The sound seems to be better than my onboard audio. Objects closer seem close and objects far away seem far away. I had an XtremeMusic card but I took it out since a problem always seemed to develop.
I did not see any noticable increase in performance but that may be due to the fact that the performance in my system seems to be video card limited and not cpu limited.
The EAX simulated 3D sound is excellent in BF242.
Here are my system specs. I could not tell if you have Vista 64 or 32. My system is 64 and it works.

X-FI Titanium pci-express MIDI connec

Hi to everyone. I want to buy a great pci-express sound card and this Creative X-FI Titanium Fatalty Pci-Express is interesting. But i need Midi connector for my musical works; i have the old db5-to-midi cable and the internal db5 bracket. Is this board compatible with this connectors or have other connections? I don't want to buy a usb-midi or i/o module; other pci-e boards have midi or have compatibility to db5 bracket, so i only want to know if x-fi titanium is the same or is a bad board for this. Thanks.

X-Fi Titanium PCI Express front pannel connection not working

I can not get any signal to or from the front pannel connector of my X-Fi Titanium PCI Express. (The rear jacks are working fine.)
The front header cable from my Antec P-80B worked perfectly with my onboard motherboard sound. Now that I have it connected to my X-Fi I get nothing from the jacks on the front of my case. (The onboard sound is disabled in my BIOS.)? I've double and tripple checked the connection and it is properly keyed and fitted. Is there a step or a setting that I'm missing somewhere to get this working? Can anyone confirm that the front pannel connection is acti've on the X-Fi Titanium PCI Express?

Re: X-Fi Titanium PCI Express front pannel connection not working? I was truly hoping that would help and I wanted to give you some additional hope. I have a coolermaster case, and it has the AC97 jack on the inside with all my other other front panel connectors for hard dri've activity light, reset, and power on. Three inches down from the AC97 jack, the INTEL HD *which works beautifully with the X-FI, only differs by three wires in different locations and the two pinouts configurations match those of the INTEL site identically.
Please tell me what happens as I would like to post a step by step guide for the others here in the forum. You will know when you have successfully adapted the connector because in VISTA and Windows 7, your sound applet in control panel will have a display of the connectors "lit up" when they are successfully connected. Mine shows FP microphone in the applet when its plugged in, and grayed out when its not. Its great for telling if I am connected on the rear of the soundcard of the front.
Best of luck and .......
