USB Sound Blaster MP3+ questi

I just got this card, and am not super computer literate when it comes to this, but I have a program that I can copy from cassette tape, remove pops,cracks etc from tape recordings or vinal recordings and I am sure that this card & program should be able to do the same thing, but I can't figure out how to do it. There are too many different things to look at and it does not seem real user friendly. I have used the sound blaster to copy the cassettes and to switch between WAV & MP3 files, but had to go to my Polderbits software to be able to make the files sound better. Any suggestions?

Is there anyone with experience with this sound card, recording and Vista?

USB Sound Blaster MP3+ and Vi

My USB Sound Blaster MP3+ performs fantastically using the nati've drivers on Win2K and WinXP.
On Vista, however, there is a chirpy/buzzy distortion piggybacking on any signal passed through the A-to-D (line in, specifically). I've tried two different Vista PC, different powered USB hubs, and with and without the Creative USB Series Windows Vista Driver .0.0002 to no benefit.
I'm an engineer and a programmer, but not a Windows programmer. Can somebody tell me why this nearly generic USB Audio interface doesn't work with Vista I have other USB Audio devices that work fine with the nati've drivers on Vista.

Is there anyone with experience with this sound card, recording and Vista?

I?m having the EXACT SAME problem. I thought it was something isolated, but apparently it isn't.
Sound just "pops" and "shutdowns" at an irregular interval of time, which is extremely annoying. I've noticed that it depends highly on the usage I'm giving the PC at the moment. When it's jsut sitting there plkaying music, it rarely happens. But if I'm browsing the web, with sites heavy on images or working on several tabs at the same time, it turns into a 0 second thing, making music almost unbareable... installing ANYTHING at the same time kills anything, 2-3 second pops and fades.
Before you even suggest it, I have a rather high end PC, phenom II 4 cored PC with 4GBs of RAM and a Caviar Black Hard dri've, so it's NOT that the PC can't handle the load. Its jsut browsing with music in the background... with half decent drivers, a 5 year old Celeron PC should be able to handle that...
I've read those troubleshooting guides over and over, and it's amazing how they suggest to shutdown/disable numerous things tha twill kill performmance in other areas, so we can have a functional audio solution. The only suggestion that makes a lot of sense is IRQ sharing with components, such as video cards/SATA dri'ves. I haven't checked/tried that, because unfortunately I'm not quite sure how/where to change the IRQ values... any help there?

Please Read this ! USB Sound Blaster 24-Bit External : The Story of the endless problem

In order to keep the good behavior here (I`m really pissed off !) I just?want to tell you something (this is ESPECIALLY for all the guys from the stuff)?Before 2 days I`ve decided to buy a new sound system for my room. I bought myself Creative Inspire t600 5. surround system. Cool. I was very happy. I?needed only to buy a sound card?working with 5. because I have a notebook DELL INSPIRON 50 who has only 2 canals. So in order to be everything beautiful I gave $70 for Usb sound blaster 24-Bit external. And from that time the problems began. In short :? I was using Vista but I found out that it wont work with this soundcard. The first problem : Didn`t identify the device. I tried with several drivers... Nope. No sound card with Vista.(This problem seems to appearance with many owners like me)?I pluged the usb soundcard in my old pc running XP and it worked . PERFECTLY. So I removed Vista from my notebook and intalled XP. This took me whole day to rebuild all my software. Finally it left to set up the sound drivers. The cherry of the icecream. Aaaaand ..... **bleep**. When I play?any track it CRACKLES. Again problem appearanced with many here. I tried to find out here what is the problem but unfortunately as u can see my english is quite bad?so I cant understand?what I need.I really like Creative but if they cant manage this problem I will?no longer buy their stuffs??JUST PLEASE SOMEBODY ANSWER ME IS THERE ANY SOLUTION FOR THIS OR NOT. I JUST WANT STRAIGHT ANSWERPS : Please do not delete my post. I know there are plenty like this. I dont want this crackles

well ?

Sound Blaster MP3+ causes Control Panel er

Hi,
I just installed the drivers from the installation CD and everything seems to be working properly. However, whenever I open Control Panel, I get this error message:
"To enable the advanced sound effect for gaming, please make sure the setting of Hardware Acceleration is "full". The directory is as below: Control Panel -> Multimedia(Win98) / Sound & Multimedia(Win200, Me)/Sound & Audio Device (WinXP) -> Audio -> Playback/Advance...-> Performance -> Hardware Acceleration"
It has only an "OK" button which, when I click it, brings up the error again. This happens 3 or 4 times in a row, and then finally the Control Panel appears.
I did not have this problem before installing Service Pack 2 for Windows XP. I thought maybe installing SP 2 was the cause of the problem. However, I just reformatted my hard-dri've and installed SP 2 BEFORE installing Sound Blaster MP3+. The problem appears again. Is there a known compatibility issue? What might be the cause of this error?
Also, I was just wondering: What exactly is Sound Blaster MP3+? Is it an actual sound card? Or is it just a sound processing device. I am running it on a laptop which has an integrated sound card. Should I have disabled the integrated sound card before installing MP3+? Could there be a conflict there?
Thanks.
- Mark

Sorry, I forgot to mention that yes, I checked the Hardware Acceleration settings and they are already set to "full".

Audio and video skip after installing USB Sound Blaster Audigy 2

Hi community,?Since installing my USB Sound Blaster Audigy 2 NX, audio and video skip when being played with either windows media player, winamp, iTunes, neroshow, winDVD 7, creatives own media players etc. in fact anything I can try, won't work. Games are fine, in fact the sound is brilliant. I'd be really grateful for any feedback on this, not being able to listen to music is driving me crazy. Thanks.

Hello thebro90,I had the same problem.After tryed everything, uninstall, reinstall audio drivers, etc, I finally manage to solved it by updating the CPU drivers... I have a AMD Atlhon X2 4800+Never had the problem again.Best regards.

XP Drivers For USB Sound Blaster 0490

% After searching this site for hours, I can't find XP drivers for my USB Sound Blaster 0490. Any ideas? Or do Creative not support legacy hardware. Or could they just do with a search section to find drivers on their site.
Kind regards,
Hemlock

Hi Hemlock,
Are you talking about this driver if you are running 64bit.
Edit: I am not sure if you are running Win XP 32 or 64 bit so I included both.

Chosing the right USB Sound Blaster C

Hi all,?I have a simple question for anyone who cares to respond. I have purchased Adobe Captivate 2 (formerly Robodemo). I want to add an audio narrati've to my Cap projects. Turns out that Captivate is not compatible with the Realtek sound card that came with my Vaio laptop. As you know, it's a pain to upgrade the sound card on a laptop since everything is embedded in the motherboard. So, I'm going with an external USB sound card.
I won't be doing any high-end game stuff, so I don't need the fastest card in town. Can anyone suggest the best USB Sound Blaster card for my purposes?Thanks,?Guy

Jo kinda covered this but just one thing to keep in mind...
Check what version of USB the card needs and also what version your motherboard supports. If you need say USB2.0 to get full use of a card, and you mobo only supports .0 or . you could just get a PCI card to add some new ones Here's an example:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E68506007
As far as external vs internal... I've heard people say you get better quality from external because you don't have as much electrical interference or something, but I have never had a problem with the sound from internal. I currently own both a SB-Li've!24bit and an Audigy2ZS Plat. (Li've! is in a box now in case I need it for an emergency)

Constant crackle with USB Sound Blaster 5.1. I'll reward you with cookies if you help

Hey guys,
I got the external USB Sound Blaster X-Fi 5. Surround sound card for Christmas, and I've heard a constant, uninterrupted crackle/popping sound since I've installed it. It's incredibly aggravating. I ran through the FAQ, but most of it wasn't applicable because this isn't an internal sound card.
I'm running Windows 7 with 4 gigs of RAM. I can provide other specs if necessary. I'm about to return this card if I can't figure out the problem, so any help provided would be most appreciated. Thanks!

I am curious to learn, what kind of processor do you use?
I use the same product but I have, afaik, not noticed any crackling or popping, certainly nothing constant.
If you use Winamp, the following tips might not help, but at least I get to mention it. In the preferences, under plug-ins and under Output, one can in the device tab change the eh uh device.
Mine was set to primary sound driver, and I set it to "02 Speaker (Sound Blaster X-Fi Surround 5. Pro", though I do not think it make any difference. Edit: I see now that there is a message here saying "FAQ 0 "primary sound driver" refers to preferred sound device selected in windows control panel".
Someone mentioned that one could try checking the "create primary buffer" in that same tab.
In the next tab called "Buffering", there is the option to "enable cpu usage control". Not sure what good that is for.
Edit2: If you use Winamp, you might want to try out this DSP plugin "enhancer", only works with win7 with this guys work on it (old plugin allegedly unsupported):

USB Sound Blaster C

I bought a new Creative Labs USB Sound Card 24 bit i believe. When i test for voice recording on mic I can playback and hear recording. When try to play music over the microphone and to see if it works I get no music on the recording. I did the hardware test on the new sound card and i'm getting any mic or music. The thing is the mic records just fine just not the music. When i use the mic during the test the volume bar does not move at all like t should. I have wave out checked in my volume options. This worked with my old card. Isn't there supposed to be a what U hear option for sound blaster cards or does the usb sound card not have this on it's I have all of the defaults set to use soundblaster for recording and playback.

Sound Blaster Mp3+ cannot hear recorded so

When I play sound into the RCA line in on the back of the MP3+ the computer registers and records it correctly but I cannot hear it as it is playing which means I cannot simply listen to records on the computer using the line in. I have also noticed that there is no 'what u hear' option in the recording source selecter as has been the case with other creative cards. How can I make the the recording source audible?

Bahamut_uk,
Unfortunately the MP3+ is not capable of playing back it's inputs. This is due to USB bandwidth limitation as it would require the sound to be sent to the computer and then sent back to the MP3+ for output. This would introduce timing and latency problems. It would also require a huge amount of the usb bandwidth which would limit the computer sound quality capable. For a similar reason there is not an option for "What-U-Hear".

Hi,
I purchased a re-certified soundblaster mp3+ 0270 from creative.com. I have windows XP and when i installed the drivers it gives error with "Creative SB External USB Composite Device". The dri've r is not able to dri've the device?
Is sb mp3+ runs in windows XP with the drivers that come with the default CD? if not where do i find the XP drivers?. and if this is not the driver issue, what do i need to operate this device in my windows XP?
Thanks in Advance
Paras.

Updated drivers from legacy driver pack. Card still doing the same thing. No drivers installed, can work fine but cannot utilize EAX add-ons, cpu says cannot find supported device.
Drivers installed, music plays choppy and fast. I have un-installed and re-installed all software and drivers and even cleared registry between installs and uninstalls... Still no ideas out there?

USB Sound Blaster Live! 24-bit external: how do you get 5.1 surround from movi

I just purchased a Li've 24 external. Neither Cyberlink PowerDVD nor Windows Media Player seem to have an option to enable sending the digital audio stream straight out of the SP/DIF (optical digital output) of the SB Li've 24.
It's always just a 96khz stereo stream.
How do I get surround sound out to my receiver?
Thanks.
Also, I'm getting intermittent "pops" in all sound (DVD, Winamp, etc). I'd appreciate any ideas on how to fix that.

I had one of these for Christmas, but cannot get it to function! It is for converting vynil records to CD,'.Anyone any ideas?
