Vienna sound font problem with audigy

HiI have "audigy LS" installed, but it is not compatable with the "vienna sound font".Which Sound Blaster sound card would I need, and would it be an improvement over my existing card. Thanks

I suppose that, all other models but Audigy LS and Value are SoundFont capable ... just check the Creative web resouces (product pages) or user's guides (support - produc documentation) for those cards you're interested in ... there'll you see a list of bundled software ... if you see soundfont bank manager software listed there then the card is (normally) SF capable but, if you also need a MIDI I/O for external MIDI keyboard Cntroller then, those systems w/ external I/O Dri've/Console are the only choices (from Creative brand) for you.
EDIT:
If you have installed the Kontakt Player which comes w/ Sibelius software, you'll get better results w/ that compared to SoundFonts which ones comes w/ Soundblaster cards. To get some noticeable improvements into Sibelius sound quality, you need to buy some quality soundfont banks. Also, for Kontakt, you can buy some extra soundlibraries as like the GPO Garritan Orchestra Sibelius Edition and Pop & Rock Collection, which both adds plenty of quality instruments to choose from.

    I am running Snow Leopard. Transferring the same texts to TextEdit has no problems, so this is a Pages problem, I think.  Corruption of Times New Roman and Arial fonts, I suspect, but where? and what do I do about it? I just need to be pointed to a source of advice, I think.

  • Fonts problem with iTunes

    Hey guys
    I have a font problem with iTunes... I get some vertical lines instead of letters... How do i fix this problem?
    Thanks

    Just a temporary glitch - removing fonts which aren't compatible solves the problem.

    you still have the option (before your warranty expires) of purchasing an AppleCare Protection Plan, which will provide an additional two years of coverage. Once your warranty expires, you will no longer have the option of purchasing AppleCare.

  • Font problems with RH 7.1 and JDK 1.3.1

    Hi there,
    I've read all post about this and looked at sun docs on how to add fonts. I've even replaced the fonts.properties with a new one I got from sun's page, but I can't make jdk 1.3.1 load the correct fonts for JDeveloper.
    Could anyone post here the steps to do it?
    I've also tried JDK 1.4.1 and for the moment everything works but some wizards, which I must run reverting to 1.3.1 JDK.
    Thanks,
    Ignacio

    To be honest, I managed to solve de problem getting the missing font from a Windows system (Ufffffff!!!!!). Now I don't get any font problems with JDK 1.3.1 but I find it very much slower than 1.4.1, and the problem is that JDeveloper wizards get weird in 1.4.1 and work OK in 1.3.1 ... let's hope Oracle releases a 1.4.1 ready JDeveloper soon.
    Thanks for your message.

  • Mic Problems- With Audigy ZS, the one with the external Sound ca

    hi i brought this sound card about a year ago and just been using it for recording using line3, but now i want to use a mic, and so i plub in a mic into line/mic and all i get is static, so i plug into line2 and i fully yell just to hear a wisper, when using a wave recorder, or teamspeak. i have heard people have alot of problems with mics and this sound card and others no prob. i was wondering if any has had the same prob and how they over come this tech problem, i have little computer mics, through to big professional singing ones. help plz.

    <A class=auth_text style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold" href="http://forums.creative.com/creativelabs/view_profile?user.id=5369" target=top>KristianK[/url],
    Is it an Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro you have (with the external dri've)?
    Did you check the mixer settings when you connected your mic? As long as the recording source is set up correctly you should be able to record from that input. Did you test that with a standard computer microphone aswell? You mentioned you have several mics.

  • Itunes 7.0.1 skipping problem with audigy soundcard

    Hi, I have an audigy se soundcard and running itunes 7.0.1. Whenever the cpu usage spikes (opening applications and loading animations on webpages) and I'm playing music in itunes, the music skips and cracks. I don't think it's issue with soundcard/driver cuz winamp works perfectly fine with no skips. I've tried changing audio pref (tried 8, 16, 24 bit and 32, 44.1 and 48 khz) in quicktime, all of which did't work. I don't want to change the process priority for itunes cuz i have to do it every time. Any ideas? This doesn't happen with onboard audio so it's really weird. I want to be able to use my soundcard. Thanks.

    Did you try turning your hardware acceleration setting down? I was having the same problem with the previous version of iTunes and was advised to change my acceleration setting from "full" to "basic". If you want to try this, go to the control panel>sounds and audio devices>audio tab>sound playback advanced button>pull the acceleration lever down two notches from Full to basic. Restart itunes and see if that helps.

  • How do i fix sound font fail for audigy 2

    all of the suddon my sound stopped working and my diagnostics say sound font fail. how do i fix this problem?

    I had the exact same problem updating the drivers for my Audigy 2 Platinum EX, but I think I managed to solve the problem. This was quite awhile ago, but I think I remember how I got it to work.
    First of all, which update did you download? The "Digital Rights Management" driver update was the one giving me that problem, and this was after installing the main drivers and programs from my Audigy 2 CD. But, I think the reason why it gives this message is because you need to install one of the other driver updates first, then install this DRM update. Look under the driver details and it says the following:
    "<EM>Requirements</EM>:
    Microsoft? Windows? XP Service Pack 2 or Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 </LI>
    Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 or Audigy 2 ZS series internal audio device </LI>
    <EM>EAX 4.0 ADVANCED HD Driver Patch Update for Sound Blaster Audigy 2 and Audigy 2 ZS (released on 29 March, 2004) installed, or Sound Blaster Audigy 2 and Audigy 2 ZS Driver Update (released on 29 July, 2004) installed</EM>."</LI>
    Strangely enough, it appears this update requires you install an older driver update first (EAX4DRV_AUDIGY2__84_50.exe) then afterwards try running the Digital Rights Management update.
    I think this is right, but I'm not 00% sure.

  • Times Font Problems With PDFs

    Hello,
    I am having an intermittent problem with PDFs with Times fonts.
    Sometimes the PDFs print OK and other times words will be jumbled together or strange characters will take the place of certain punctuation marks. There are several other things that seem to happen, but I cannot remember every issue. Every time there is a problem, the PDF "Looks good on the monitor!".
    This happens on 10.3.9 and Os9 machines also.
    I have done Permission Repairs on a regular basis, cleaned my Font Caches, used FontFinagler etc.
    I have run Norton on the Os9 machines, taken all fonts out of ATM and put them back in, trashed Adobe prefs, etc.
    Sometimes this happens on PDFs from PCs, other times it happens on PDFs from Macs.
    All of the versions of Acrobat we are using are Professional versions with the latest updates, so that shouldn't be the issue.
    If anyone has any input on this, it will make my life considerably easier.
    TIA,
    David

    David,
    It sounds like the problem PDF docs did not have the fonts embedded into the docs when they were created originally, and the Times font on your computer is different. A couple of possible options, (a) ask the original creator to re-make the PDF doc with embedding the fonts, or (b) try re-writing the doc by doing a Save As... in Acrobat.
    Hope this helps.

  • Problems with Audigy 2 ZS ASIO driv

    I have some problems with ASIO drivers in my Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro. I use the program Cubase SE. When I select the SB Audigy 2 ZS ASIO 24/96-driver, it works for some time but then the sound starts cracking and popping and eventually doesn?t work at all until you reselect the driver. And with the SB Audigy 2 ZS ASIO-driver I can only record in mono, even though I checked the inputs. I think the Creative ASIO-driver had the same problem. Actually the ASIO Multimedia Driver has functioned the best. What could be the problem?

    Indeed, if you think it's something that might be useful to others aswell, then it would be nice to have it up here

  • Microphone problems with Audigy 2 ZS/win 7 x64

    Hello.
    I have very common problem with my soundcard audigy 2 ZS on windows 7 x64 with 8gb RAM. A week ago installed win 7 (was xp before) and noticed that my mic is not working. When I turn on microphone in output device i hear crystal clear sound from headphones, as input device it is not working properly. After reboot it don't work, no reaction on any changes. Usually after 5-20 mins I can hear signal from it (even when I'm not doing anything). Still sound quality is terrible, lots of noises and bugs. So I can't use it. After reboot mic not working again.
    My microphone is fine, soundcard also worked on XP without problems (almost all A2ZS users have same problem). The latest drivers was installed on clean, fully updated Win 7 Ultimate. Tried danielK pack. Still no results, this is about 2 years old problem with drivers and I want to know any realistic way to solve it. All post on forum are outdated, or don't have any useful info.

    Krookut,
    Try these suggested steps when cleansweeping and reinstalling. They may help make the reinstall more successful:

  • Vista x64, CMSS, and Distortion Problems with Audigy Z

    I have an Audigy ZS 2 Plantinum, and I recently upgraded from XP x86 to Vista x64. With XP, I had no problems with the most recent drivers. I used CMSS-3D to output to all my speakers, mainly to make my music sound better when I played it (so it surrounded me, not just in front, even though its just Stereo).
    Well, after trying to install the drivers for Vista x64 and having a ton of difficulties getting it to even set to 5. speakers, whenever I have CMSS turned on, sounds within programs are scratchy/distorted (such as Aol Instant Messenger). Music is fine (I use MediaMonkey), and those sound .wav's from programs play fine when opened on their own in MM or WMP. When I turn CMSS off, there is no distortion.
    Does anyone have a solution for this I would like to have music played through all my speakers, but I am always using other programs when listening to music and I don't want their sounds to be distorted.

    If anyone else is having similar problems: For me it seems to be an incompatibility between Creative Audigy 2 ZS drivers and Philips amBX set drivers. I've started a thread on the amBX forums : http://ambx.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=3797
    I still need help to fix these problems.

  • Serious problems with Audigy 2

    Several Threads here in the Discussion Forums and across the Internet reports that there are crackling/hissing/popping noises with their Audigy 2 and also the X-Fi Sound Cards.
    I have the problem since that day they where available in the austrian or german stores, but at that time i thought it was a problem of the motherboard or the internal raid controller on my abit kx7 raid board. At that time i tried the first problem solvings like putting the card in the furthest slot from the agb, dismantle the whole computer and only tried to run with the audigy. I even reinstall a new Windwos Xp and always used the newest drivers and bios upgrades. But there was no solution for my problem. Soon after that i found the first postings across the internet reporting the same problem. Time after time more users came across and speculated about the possible solutions. Its really awesome, the people put much effort in helping each other. I TRIED EVERYTHING, really. I dont know how much time i invested to get rid off this annoying problem, and so other great guys do and as im writing this thread. But nothing works
    Hey folks, come on, this cant be true. Not when there are so many people reports the same problem. They are all using different configurations but they all have the same problem: a hissing/crackling/popping sound. We all cannot say whats the real problem, we even can not say if its a problem with the soundcard.
    Sure, no one can make a product without failures, but there are so many people reporting the same problem over a serious period of time, that there has to be a reaction from Creative.
    I have to say i am very upset, i, or better many, feel to be left alone with a problem which we can't solve.
    Please dont let us folks alone and help us to solve the problems we have. We have a right for it, as you have the right to get good money.....

  • Problem with Audigy 2 Platinum Front Panel Input

    0Problem with Audigy 2 Platinum Front Panel Input? Hey everyone,
    Here's the background of the issue. I got a PS3 over the holidays for literally free
    I had my computer out in a testbed style. Plugged the PS3 into my monitor HDMI --> DVI cable, and Red/White into the front RCA jacks of the Front Panel (Aux 2). As soon as I plugged in the cable, I got sound out of my speakers and was able to enjoy my PS3 in 720p
    I put all of the components back into the case after cutting exhause and intake fan holes. I brought everything back to school, fired up the PC and PS3. Lo and behold, there is no more sound from the PS3. I know that PS3s are temperamental in moving, but I hooked the audio up to my TV and the sound came out just fine. The AD Ext cable looks like it's secure and in place. When I hooked up a mic and headphones to the front, they worked fine as well. However it seems to be just the AUX 2 RCA inputs that dont work anymore. Any ideas about how to fix this issue? Is there a function I have to turn on now in the software to allow sound to pass through? Any information would be wonderful!? I'm going to try an optical cable in the near future, just need to borrow one from a friend =/

    Problem Solved.
    I had moved my cards around for better airflow. I moved the SB Audigy card from the bottom PCI slot to the top. Thinking this might be the problem, I moved the video card back to the top slot PCI-E and the sound card to the bottom PCI slot. Sound is now working again. Thanks for the thread views?:smileytongue:
    Think that when I have to buy Win 7 for real if the problem would still persist if I moved the card again? Or is this a hardware limitation?

  • Problems with audigy SE

    I recently had a problem with my sound card, it became glitch while playing battlefield 242. I reinstalled windows, downloaded the driver and I'm still getting this "product not detected" error.

    I was asking if you purchased the Audigy card separately or did it came with your computer. If the card came with your computer, you may have an OEM product.
    You might also want to check if the sound card is installed properly, go to "Device Manager" and check if the Audigy SE is listed. If you continue to experience difficulty, please get in touch with support for further assistance.
