Soundblaster live 24bit, distort

Hi,
just purchased a new computer with a Soundblaster Li've 24 bit. The problem I have is that a while of playing sound the kard starts to produce static crackles and distortion. If I run a cubase project, it's fine in the beginning, but after some minutes, there will be a small scipping of the sound and the static distortion starts to appear. After closing the project and re-opening it again, it works fine for the next few minutes.
Any idea how to fix that?
Thanks,
Andreas

Try increasing the playback latency (can be set on software you're using for audio playback).
Try other playback drivers (from MME, DirectSound, WDM, (/WDM/KS (Kernel Streaming), ASIO/). If your audio application is not capable other than MME/DS drivers, then you can try Foobar2k (select the special installation) or MixVibes 6 (demo) (these apps are capable for WDM/KS and ASIO).
If still these issues, try to decrease PCI latency for graphics card (you'll find information on how to do this, by searching this forum).

SoundBlaster LIVE 24BIT.....Microphone ISSU

Alright, Alright...... I have Been playing United Offensi've for quite some time now with an Onboard Soundcard and i just got sick and tired of having to listen to my games through 2 pissant speakers.

I decided it was finally time to get myself something bigger, so i went to staples and purchased a Soundblaster Li've 24Bit Sound Card with a 5. Logitech Surround system, WORKS AMAZING......untill.........................


When i get onto the game or hop into my Voice Server, everytime i push my "Talk" button for my microphone they hear everything my comptuer is doing, wether it be from my AIM sounds, or music in the background......and thats with my headset pluged into my headphone port on my speakers,.....acually well it does it either way , pluged into the headhphone port or unpluged, i thoguht it might have had something to do with my speakers being too loud, and just my microphone was picking up background feedbakc, but NOPE!!!!

The "What You Hear" setting in my "Creative Surround Mixer" seems to be allowing my freinds on the other end to hear every little noise my comptuer makes, If...i turn it all the way down....thinking maybe they wont hear it........ THEY NOW CANT HEAR ME TALK!!!!!.....there is no way around it.....or is there? :angry:

If anyone would be so kind as to help me out with this little problem it would be wonderfully appreciated, i cant handle playing Online games without overwhealming sound and my **bleep** microphone!

Thanks: Cory. *aka* Gafston

Soundblaster Live 24bit analog mic prob

Hi all,
Just picked up an analog mic ,plugged it in to the correct port, last one on the right and no sound. Tested the mic on my laptop and it worked fine. Am I missing something here. Should be simple. Not a new install on the Soundblaster Li've 24bit , everything is working fine. Thanks Steve

Before that. Are other sounds being output correctly example playing back MP3 etc... Also check your Control Panel - Sound & Audio device. Ensure that the playback and voice are having the corrected sound card selected.

Soundblaster Live 24bit Prob

Hi i've been having problems with my new Sb li've 24bit card, having problems in some games that i can't seem to remedy was hoping i could get some help or ideas to try.
Heres the problems i have, when playing 2 of my favorite games Il2 Forgotten battles, and World War II Online I experience crackling , some sounds are to faint and some are to loud.. sounds are more loud if i look up appose to looking forward or to the side at objects making the noise.. Some sounds are missing altogether.
I think both these games use Directx for there sounds. Must be a problem with directx.. I've tried everything to fix the problem and nothing makes a diffrence. I've reinstall the drivers 4 times, tried playing with all the settings for the soundcard like speaker settings, equalizer, EaX, bass booster, lowering hardware acceleration for sound in directx, tried diffrent settings in the games setup and nothing seems to help.
I alos have windows Xp Pro fully updated and directx 9.0c, and all other drivers are updated including my motherboard drivers. it seems like to me.. that maybe its not positioning the sounds threw my headphones correctly.. even thou i have headphones selected in speaker settings sounds like its working in surround sound threw my headphones and missing some of it.. i donno.. But anyways thx for any help in advanced.

Yes i updated the drivers for my graphics card as well, i have tried 2 diffrent video card drivers . I've updated every driver for my system and tried some older drivers for my motherboard to. I've tried everything in that knowledgebase article as well over the last couple days and nothing seems to make a diffrence. I don' have another system to try the card in at the moment but today i put my old SB li've Value card back in and tested these games and the sound was perfect.. maybe this card just dosen't work well with certian sound technologys? or maybe its just defecti've i donno.. Is there anything else i can try?
Thx for the reply

Onboard SoundBlaster Live 24bit probl

I just recently got a MSI nforce 4 motherbaord (platinum SLI) with onboard Li've 24bit. It works fine for low quality sound, but if i try and utilise it fully in games, like Halo, then it lags and only plays parts of the sound. I was wondering if it could be that the hardware it not fully accelerated but i'm unsure where to find that option.
I'm running XP with the latest drivers. Please help.
Cheers, Mcphie

i guess creatives products are just cack then! all i have read on these forums is how people from a variety of different soundcards, experience this pop and crackle noise. but yet, no proper drivers fix for most! and the fix they suggest rarely seem to work. certainly not for me!
quite frankly, im rather anoyed that creative are being allowed to get away with this. i for one will NOT be buying anything in your range again.

Soundblaster Live 24bit exter

I bought this card a few months ago and i'm mostly very pleased with it....except for one thing that's driving me potty! I'm a keen mechwarrior 4 mercenaries player and since i bought this card it's been a complete pain in the earholes to play.
Every time there is a sound a distorted "Farty" echo comes quick on it's heels! I've tried everything, new driver install(usb, sound card, mobo drivers the works), clean OS install.
I'm coming to the end of my tether and am seriously considering using a sledge-hammer on the darned thing.
Has anyone got a clue as to why this is happening? Any help would be appreciated.

First of all, your last message was unacceptable. I'm sorry our drivers do not suit your needs, but that is no excuse to attack the moderators and start namecalling. Do not do it again.
Next, this forum is not an appropriate place to discuss competitor products. Please find a more appropriate forum to do so on.

Soundblaster Live 24bit External + Vista h

Ugh, what a nightware this is. Where do I start?
I installed using the installation cd that came with it and upgraded to the "vista" drivers on the creative website.
I have sound, but no CMSS and no working Line In.
Is there a workable solution to this?

I downloaded the file. Unzipped it and converted the iso file with WinAr. It was/looked like the same CD I have. It would not install anything because it did not recognize a soundblaster product,?but when I plugged in the card thru the USB a defalt windows driver was installed. I have been trying this for weeks with no luck. Somehow windows installed a default "usb audio" driver. The sound was all crackily when I played an mp3. I went into the hardware update and updated the driver. Windows found a driver to update with in the C:\windows\systen32 folder. It is now working fine.
Now my only problem is when I restart windows I have to unplug the usb with the soundcard attached then plug it back in when I am back at the desktop. I think there is a conflict at startup and the computer will freeze if the card remains plugged in but I have been living with this ever since I bought the card a year and a half ago. THe only issue is I am worried I will plug it in one of these times and it will not be recognized again. What a pain...

Help please no luck recording vinyl thru line-in port on External USB Soundblaster Live 24bit

Help please! I have connected LP turntable (I am assured which has preamp inbuilt) to line-in port on S/Blaster external using lead inbuilt from?turntable with white/red RCA plugs with a line -in plug converter. Then connected external soundcard?to the notebook USB-USB as per manual. I have tried Creative's Smart Recorder but it shows no sound coming through on Analysis (same with Audiograbber software too). Sound card diagnostics show sound card OK and I can plug in headphones and get output. I am thinking hardware connection issue as I connected direct from turntable to microphone input &?got loud mike low quality recording but I ustand this is not recommended as can blow sound card (and poor receording anyway)?Is there another device I can easily plug into line in to test - or any other ideas gratefully received.

Have you tried by installing www.asio4all.com drivers and then by using some?ASIO capable recording software as like Kristal, VSTHost, Reaper, etc (there are many others available)?jutapa

T6060 and soundblaster live 24bit extrenal front speakers only work!!!!!??? HELP

hey, plz can you help me, only the front two speakers work and no sound comes from the subwoofer, centre speaker of the rear speakers. if i turn on CMSS then i get sound from all but it is not proper surround sound, it is basically playing the same thing that i hear through my front speakers but throuh the other speakers.
i have tried everything, and in really need your help. plz tell me thet this can be fixed!

hades2point0,
What kind of sources are you playing? MP3's and stereo sources will of course only play in two speakers without CMSS. And CMSS is basically like Dolby ProLogic in that it emulates surround sound from stereo tracks.
If you are playing DVD's, as this device does not support Dolby Digital decoding, then make sure that your DVD playback software supports Dolby Digital decoding thus sending the 5.1 audio to the soundcard for playback.

Soundblaster live 24bit - sound probl

OK, so i have had my card for about a year now, but only just started using the machine that has the SBL24 to play games.
i have identified 2 problems so far:
. when playin tombraider legends, the sound is crackly, and poppy and very annoying!
2. when using Teamspeak whilst gaming, the sound is crackly, stuttery, poppy and quite franckly Inaudible.
i upgraded to the latest drivers, but to no avail. my mobo is nforce3.
thanks.

i guess creatives products are just cack then! all i have read on these forums is how people from a variety of different soundcards, experience this pop and crackle noise. but yet, no proper drivers fix for most! and the fix they suggest rarely seem to work. certainly not for me!

Soundblaster live 24bit probl

i cant seem to getthis thing to sound right. while in game(using my mic and headset) if i have it on voice activated (using the teamspeak program)other people have playback on there end of what they say to me. also my game sounds really crappy. im playing wow (world of warcraft)and with my old souncard it sounded good. i put this new one in and now some sounds sound like they are all muffled.is there anyone who can help me make some adjustments to maybe fix these two problems.

Soundblaster live 24bit problem

in all the programs for dj's like BPM, VIRTUAL DJ & Tracktor Dj
when i configure the two cards on the decks and play a song
on the right or on the left, the song play to fast
please help me is the second threads i post for this problem
and i am blocked with this 2 cards

Ive been wanting to set up a new system based of this same motherboard, but all the power supplies Ive found so far have either been brands Im not familiar enough with or I havent been able to find a definitive answer on if the power supply supports that -5V pin(usually both, unfortunately). Can anyone point me in the right direction for a PSU under US$100? Any suggestions of power supplies anyone has had success with will also be greatly appreciated.
Ive spent about the past three days searching and have finally reached my wits end.
Second edit:
I double checked the diamond forum link (it gave a link not found page the first time), I did get to see what was posted there, but since most online retailers and manufacturer websites dont give the best view of the main connector, thats not alot of help. The only websites Im comfortable ordering from also do not evne carry the suggested power supplies, or any other unit by those manufacturer.
FINAL Edit (I promise...kinda):
I double checked on NewEgg (and then double checked FrozenCPU.com), and I found one from OCZ that doesnt totally blow my goal of USD100 or less out of the water. Lists a -5v supply, and is 24 pin for the motherboard:
http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=17-104-155&depa=1
Same thing for 129.99 on FCPU, which is where Ill be ordering the power supply from.
I dont have any real need for the onboard adjustment dials of the more expensive series, and I really like the modular PSU design, not to mention the blue color scheme will work well in my blue-illuminated case.
Now, are there any other hurdles I need to be aware of?

Differences between live 24bit and audigy se?

hi!
anyone knows whats the exact differences between the creative soundblaster live 24bit (found in the k8n diamond and p4n diamond) and creative soundblaster audigy se (found in k8n diamond plus)? the chipsets seems to be identical among each other. the specs are also identical.
pls advise.

Why my device control on my K8N Diamond plus did not have the decoder tab?
Maybe that's why I can't get 5.1 sound from my digital speaker...
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=99326.0
Looks like you don't have the right software drivers installed. Instead of the nVIDIA Audio drivers, you should be installing the Creative Labs drivers from the enclosed driver CD-ROM, the separate one from the MSI disk. Next go to Creatives site and run all the updates from their Auto-update service.
You should be able to select the tab shown above as I also see it. Each selection also works for me so I can say that the Dolby decoding does work.
