Where is my "surround mixer/ biagnostic/ grafix equalizer butto

When I am watching a movie, my rear and side speakers are not loud enough. I swear I used to be able to control the front/side/rear speaker volume. When I open up the Creative software I noticed I am missing tabs next to the (default) tab. All I have is the speaker settings tab? How can I get this function back. I lost my origanal cd and have used every download on creatives site, and still no luck. I know Li've 24bit is old but I refuse to believe that they would put out a 7. card with no speaker volume adjustment. Please help. This problem is taking away from my movie expieriance. lol. Thanks.

The link to DL the CD can be found from here.

  • Graphic EQ/Surround Mixer/Soundfont Manager for Audigy 4

    When I originally got my Audigy 4 SE OEM version, I downloaded the driver and software for it from this website. The cd that came with it had only the driver, and I figured the site would have a more up-to-date version of that anyway. The package I downloaded included the driver, the soundfont bank manager, the surround mixer, the graphic equalizer, and other useful bits of software.
    I recently reinstalled Windows, and when I re-downloaded the driver package, I discovered it now comes with only the driver itself and the Creative audio console. I searched the forums looking for others asking the same question, but only found people linking to ISOs of the install cds, and the only one that was for Audigy 4 wouldn't install for me. I'd like to know where I can find the full package, and also, why has all this software disappeared from the downloads section of this site?

    you can try here but I don't know if it has the CD for your card.

  • SB Live Value - Where can I get the Surround Mixe

    I just reinstalled my Windows and am trying to find a way to install the Surround Mixer for the SB. I can't find the original CD, and have been looking online for a couple of days already. The software used to be available in the Creative site, I think I downloaded it from there (here) the last time.. It should be available, right?

  • How do I get my old Surround Mixer recording sources back?

    I recently had my computer repaired where I basically had a complete overhaul. In the process they installed a second soundcard (the one that went with the new motherboard) alongside my original Creative Sound Blaster Audigy card (Sound Blaster Audigy Platinum eX). Before, when I would record audio into my computer, I opened the Surround Mixer software and in the record pulldown menu it showed all of the inputs as they relate to my Audigy interface (SPDIF, Aux In 2, Line In 2, etc.). Now when I open the Surround Mixer software, I only get generic options such as Analog Mix, CD Digital, Microphone, etc. and therefore I can't get any outside audio into my computer.
    I figured the computer?was defaulting to the?new sound card so I disabled the onboard audio in my BIOS and then installed the Creative Sound Blaster Series 2 Driver. I clicked on the driver and it said that it needed to uninstall another driver that was already there. The install went a little funny and it got hung up a couple of times. Then, I couldn't get Surround Mixer to work at all so I went to the Creative website and installed Software Auto Update. I downloaded and installed all the critical components?but that also went a little funny. It took about three tries and it didn't seem like it actually finished installing, but when I checked on Auto Update again, it said that I was up to date and that everything had installed. I noticed at the beginning that it installed a new version of Surround Mixer but when I opened it later, it still had those same generic options, not the the ones that match my external interface.
    What do I need to do to get my original settings back?

    >Re: How do I get my old Surround Mixer recording sources back?p audiodrome,
    Is the external Audigy Dri've properly connected? Does the Plat Ex have the rear jacks? If so, can you record from the rear LineIn or mic jack and play sound files through headphones or speakers? What happens when you run the Creative Diagnostic? What does Device Manager show? Otherwise, yes, uninstall and reinstall the Creative software. If your install CD has a repair option, try that first. However, you may find you need to remove the Audigy from your PC, reboot without it, and then reinstall everything. Some Soundblaster cards don't play well with some integrated soundcards, so you may also want to disable the integrated soundcard in BIOS.

  • Sound Audigy 2.....Microphone option is not showing up in Surround Mixer!!!!

    I just updated the Sound Card Driver and when I finished with it and restarted my computer. It reset all my settings in Surround Mixer. I got them back to where i had them but not I can't get my microphone option back. I can only get What U Hear. The drop down menu is missing the microphone option. How can I restore this?
    What started this all was from getting a new Logitech G5 keyboard. My sound was all crackling and some things was repeating itself while playing World of Warcraft. So i was told to update the driver, which didn't help but now my Surround Mixer is giving me heck.

    Vista? Control Panel -> Sound -> Recording (tab) and make sure only ! device is set as the default, this should resoter your ability to choose the mic in the audio [email protected]

  • SB Surround Mixer Volume Bind Keys/Quick K

    Howdy,
    I was wondering if anyone knows if it's possible (either with an external program or not) to assign quick keys or bind keys to functions within the Surround Mixer for my Audigy 2 Platinum.
    For example, I have a Logitech keyboard with a scroll wheel on the side and I within the Logitech software it is possible to assign it to control the master volume, but for my purposes I would like it (or even some regular keys on the keyboard) to control the gain slider for the the Auxiliary 2 Input. This would be helpful to me, so I can mix the volume of my audio coming in via RCA into Aux 2 on the fly, while Im in a fullscreen application that is also running audio that doesn't take kindly to being alt tabbed - which makes it difficult to open the Surround Mixer Window every time I want to change something.
    Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks.

    It has no symbol on xev, and acpi_listen says:

    I have no idea what to do for that.
    From [ibm-acpi-devel] ThinkVantage key on ThinkPad X61
    Is the mask value for this key 0x00000080 or 0x00001018?
    Neither.  In the documentation, you'll see a table with an entry for
    each key.  The table shows the "ACPI event" code (0x1018 in your]
    example) and the "scan code" (0x17 corresponds to that event).
    The documentation mentioned above is the README of the ibm-acpi,
    where you hav ACPI events and scan codes explained. But, that's low-level thingy.
    To configure the ThinkVantage button, simply follow instructions from the How to get special keys to work. For example,  Open an application
    where you can find out keycode with xev and map desired action with xmodmap.
    (On my T400, under X11 the ThinkVantage button generates event with keycode 156. You need to check yours using xev.)

  • Audigy 2 ZS - Surround Mixer - REC setting greyed

    Hi! I can't select my sound input device in the surround mixer anymore. Here is a picture:
    <img alt="mixer" width="500" src="http://img95.imageshack.us/img95/09/mixeriq.jpg" height="302" title="mixer">
    As you can see the slider is greyed out. My microphone works just fine, but I cannot adjust the volume anymore.
    I'm using Windows XP, I recently installed Skype and TeamSpeak (checked both programs, the input settings are NOT on "automatic", so the Creative Surround Mixer should be where I adjust the input volume)
    I can use the windows settings to select another recording device and adjusting the volume also works, but I want to use the creative mixer, this worked in the past and I want it back
    Any ideas? Maybe I'm missing something important.

    Hmm no but I reinstalled the latest driver (7 Jul 08)

  • Bass and treble control at surround mixer is disabled!!! plz h

    i install my sound card and its sounds properly.but bass and treble control at surround mixer is disable.my card is sound blaster audigy value.whats the problem? is there hardware problem in my card? plz help

    cold_terminator,
    IIRC, that's normal for the Audigy Value. You should have the Creative Equalizer application. That takes the place of the treble and bass controls. It's more complex of course.

  • No longer able to select speaker type in Surround Mixer (Audigy Platinum Win XP P

    Hi, all. I have an Audigy Platinum. Normally I have no issues using my 5. speakers with this card; however, today I noticed my sound was "tinny" and the reason is that the surround mixer is locked on Headphones. I cannot click the arrow to change it to 5. surround or anything else for that matter. I've gone into Control Panel and unchecked the mute other speakers when headphones are plugged in option, but that hasn't seemed to help. Any other ideas?Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for the reply. That did the trick.

  • Live!Surround speaker setting not showing in surround mixer for SB Live Platinum

    the Li've!Surround option for speaker settings in not showing in my Surround Mixer
    i have:
    Windows 2000 sp4
    SB Li've! Platinum 5.
    ASUS CUSL2
    Sound Blaster Li've! - Li'veDrvUni-Pack (English) SBLW-XPWEB-W4-US 28-Feb-03
    Installed the speaker preset for li've!surround but the only headphone, 2 speaker, 4 speaker, and 5. speaker shows up on speaker configuration of the Surround Mixer
    i've played the AC3 files on the cdrom and Dolby pro logic surround, I get sound from all fi've speakers on my Denon D-850 w/ Dolby surround pro-logic
    I can't use the surround mixer to test all the speakers, only front left and right speakers work on the test, i have to open to wav files directly to test the center speaker, the rear speaker test doesn't work from the wav file
    My Denon system only has analog stereo inputs, so this is my only option for letting Sound Blaster know I have 5 speakers.
    I've uninstalled all SB Li've software and drivers from the unipack, and reinstalled the orignal drivers and apps from the CD-ROM SBP5-CDSD-W-US MID : 32680 5-Sep-2000 and the Li've!Surround speaker setting reappears in the Surround Mixer.
    Is the Li've!Surround setting no longer available in the new Surround Mixer in Li'veDrvUni-Pack (English) SBLW-XPWEB-W4-US 28-Feb-03 ?

    so I found this post...
    http://groups-beta.google.com/group/...7?dmode=source
    it seems Li've Surround is no longer supported in the new drivers
    ....so what would be the best setting to play ac3 files or DVD's through my receiver with only 2 analog inputs (left and right) available w/ Dolby surround prologic. Should I set it to 2 speaker or 4 speaker setting in the Surround Mixer in order to send the best signal to the prologic decoder on my receiver with 5 speakers (2 front, center, 2 rear)

  • Surround Mix with Logitech Z-5500 Digital

    Hello,
    I have a project for a 3D animation short movie, and I'll also make the score and sound effect for it, to make a DVD.
    I don't have Logic Pro yet; I have Logic Express.
    Is it possible to use a Logitech Z-5500 Digital set to do the surround mix with Logic Pro ? Using the optical digital out ?
    I have a very limited budget, so I'm looking for the cheapest solution possible, with the best possible sound.
    I'm waiting for a Mac Pro 2.66 with an ATI graphic cards (for Motion and 3D).
    Thanks.

    can't you pick the surround soundtrack in the control bar that is displayed close to the bottom of the movie window when you start one in iTunes? If theres no surround track, it cannot be done, furthermore, the speakers must be run from a surround home theatre receiver. Messing around with it on one of my desktops, I can choose the surround channel, but since it only has 2 built in speakers, I obviously won't get 5.1 (L/R front, center, L/R rear, and subwoofer). I agree iTunes should have preference that surround is automatically decoded when a surround track is available much like it's a preference in DVD player. I still haven't figured that one out.
