Will the Sound Blaster Digital I/O Module enable me to use my DTT3500's with my audigy

I have a vanilla audigy 4. Just found out that it only supports 2. digital speakers. My DTT3500's are 5. and in the spaeker test only the front left and right make a sound, as digital 2.. will the Sound Blaster Digital I/O Module enable me to get digital 5. as my old soundblaster li've platinum 5. let me do? ie. all speakers show up in the speaker test?
yours sincerely,
john kelly

No. The digital output module is simply an adaptor to standard 2-channel connections such as optical, coaxial etc. Even if it includes the bigger 9-pin DIN connector which was the first generation of the DIN connectors, the Digital Output on the Audigy 4 is still only giving it 2 channels of sound, so all rest speakers will be silent.
If you are interested and have the skills you may modify the DTT3500 to support an extra analog connection for the center channel, the instructions were posted on this forum somewhere. Do a search...
There is really no other way to have the center channel receiving the signal from the card. (Theoretically you could modify the card to get the signals from there, but the chances are you will most propably destroy it in the process).

  • Will the Sound Blaster X-Fi Work with Sony Viao Laptop?

    7Will the Sound Blaster X-Fi Work with Sony Viao Laptop?@ I have a Sony Vaio Laptop. When i purchased the laptop i did not know you could only play music through the mic on Sony Vaio. The mic and sound card are intergrated and there is no stereo mix on the Sony Vaio's.( You cannot en-able the stereo mix on Vaio's )I like to play music on a chat program called pal talk, they have music rooms. But my music sounds like crap because i have to play through the mic. I purchased this USB Sound Blaster to hopefully allow me to play through the sound blaster card. There is a lady on pal talk who plays music and talks on the mic using a Sony Vaio. She is the one that told me i needed to get a creavti've sound card to play music in the rooms. The problem is
    I can't find her to ask which sound card she purchased. So i did some research and purchased the X-Fi usb card. Now the problems start. I purchased the X-Fi, turned on the?my laptop as stated?and inserted?the X-Fi?
    Into the USB slot. The program asked for permission to run and i clicked yes. It download almost all the way and became stuck while installing the console, went from zero to 27% and stopped. I tryed it 8 times with the same thing happening. I went to the site and downloaded the software from there and the same thing happened. What am i doing wrong? Also when i inserted the unit in the USB slot and clicked on the speaker icon and pulled up the sound information, i see that the X-Fi mic is installed and working but i don't see the X-fi sound card? I checked every where! Also i tryed playing music in one of the music rooms and they said no sound, no sound! Is it just that this will not work with a Sony Vaio? Or am i doing something wrong? I am running vista 64 bit, 4 gig's of memory and daul core?processor and my Laptop is only months old. The laptop sound card is Reltek High Deff Audio. Any help would be great.

  • Multiple cases in which the Sound Blaster Arena USB Headset breaks. . .

    I bought the Complexity edition of the Sound Blaster Arena Surround USB Gaming Headset. After using it for months the USB connector part of the headset breaks and falls apart. Feedback from here shows that this has happened to many other people (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16826158084).
    I want to know if can get this repaired as this is a defect. When i tried submitting an RMA it says that the serial isnt recognized but when i registered my product it works.

    Hello Bunbotman990,
    Please get in touch with customer support here if you have problems with the online RMA. I'm not sure but for issues like this, they may have to ask you to send in a pic of the defective part.

  • Linux and the Sound Blaster Live

    Ive got my hands on a SB Li've 24bit external sound card and after some fiddling around I seem to only have standard stereo and no 5. Audio.
    My question is has anyone got these things to output 5. on Linux yet.
    I'm going to have to return it back to the distributor as I seem to be miss informed that it would work in Linux.
    Im getting this feeling that most Creative stuff is not "Linux friendly" and may not recommend their wares in future,
    Looks like its time to start a Linux Audio device company, 40 million users is a nice market.

    Hello,
    Please bear with me as I'm a complete novice on this.....
    I have the laptop, and whist re-decorating the room, I have?run?6 cables (sub woofer to be at the?rear of the room) to a wall mounted connector plate. So I think I need the following;
    . Software to convert the sound within my laptop to 5. format (if not already done) and to get it to a USB. Installed sound card should be capable of this.
    2. USB?cable from PC to ?The Sound Blaster? Li've!? 24-bit External?
    3. The Sound Blaster? Li've!? 24-bit External?
    4. Maybe someting else to amplify and distribute the audio
    5. 6 short leads to my wall mounted connector plate
    6. Speakers
    Not sure if the aboe helps?and perhaps there's another way of doing it instead of using the?Sound Blaster? Li've!? 24-bit External?
    Many thanks

  • About the Sound Blaster Live!

    Ok.... Can you not buy this card anymore? Cause every place i go to order they say the manufacturing is no longer supplying them or some crap. I ordered one and waited for almost 2 weeks finaly i e-mailed them and they were no longer available (from buy.com) and so other places they say it was in inventory so can you not buy the Sound Blaster Li've! 5. anymore? :'( cuz its the card i need =(

    I've searched around for some options for you. Here is one that may do the trick, but it's not a simple PCI sound card. You may want to contact one of the sound card makers you are planning on purchasing from and ask them. You can contact Creative Labs from this page and they may be able to give you a better answer.

  • I need help on the Sound Blaster Audig

    I just got the sound Blaster Audigy 4 and installed it on a Dell computer. The receiver that comes with the card worked fine with the media center the first time it is installed but after that the red LED light comes on instead of blinking when the remote control is used. I tried to re-intalled the driver of the card which took a lot of time but did not fix the problem. Would somebody please tell me what the problem is with the receiver and what should I do the address the problem?

    I would suggest uninstalling the SB drivers in Add/Remove program then run the SB installation again.

  • Sound Blaster and Z-5450 Which cable should i use.

    Hi , i just bought an sound blaster and sound system z-5450 and i was woundering ... How should i connect(digital,analog)?them in order to get the best of both sound card and sound system ...
    And How... cuz the sound blaster doesn't have an digital connection as far as i can see
    thanks

    jert23,
    Unfortunately, I could find nothing left on the Logitech site about the Z-5450, much less a copy of the manual.
    I would use the 6-channel analog inputs. Did the speakers come with suitable cabling for that? Generally, (non-Creative) speakers and general audio equipment don't do any bass management for direct inputs, so you probably need to make sure that the soundcard's "bass redirection" feature is enabled, and the crossover frequency is set to match the speakers. It is also usually assumed that the subwoofer output is at full line-level, but the soundcard default is the Dolby LFE -0dB level. The soundcard has a +5dB setting which should take care of this, but it's usually possible to provide the extra 0-5dB of extra amplification needed for correct subwoofer balance via speaker system settings, and I think that is better if it can be done.
    I'm also a proponent of running all the soundcard volumes at 00%, because this maximizes the digital SNR, and setting listening volume with the speaker system, which a remote makes handy. However, this can be percei'ved as less convenient and less intuiti've, so it's really a matter of personal choice.

  • I lost the ability to order and hide site columns if i use custom content type with a custom Create Form

    I have a team site collection and I want to add a new App of type Issue Tracking list. so I did the following:-
    From the site collection I created a new App of type issue tracking.
    Then from the site collection I created a new Content type named “CustomIssue” which has its parent as “Issue” content type.
    I went to the Issue tracking list and I changed the default content type from Issue , to the new “CustomeIssue” content type.
    I open the site collection using SP designer and I created a new Create form for my Issue tracking list based on the "CustomIssue" content type and I select to have the Create form as the default form when creating an item.
    Everything till this point worked well. But when I open the “customIssue” content type , and I re-order the columns and I hide some columns, this was not reflected inside the custom Create form …
    although when using the default content type and the default create form you can control the order of the fields and to specify if certain fields hold be hidden inside the Create form.. so can anyone advice on this please?

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you lost the ability to order and hide site columns if i use custom content type with a custom Create Form.
    I try to reproduce the issue, the result is the same as yours.
    As a workaround, if I modify the custom content type form the site setting, and then change the NewForm as the default form, it will change the column orders.
    However, if I use the new created form as the default form, it will remain the original orders.
    I recommend that you modify the custom content type form the site setting, and then reset the NewForm as the default form.
    The result is as below:
