X-Fi Titanium Championship Series - Front Panel Broken?

7X-Fi Titanium Championship Series - Front Panel Broken?K Initially, the front panel worked just fine - approximately one week. Sound quality was great, too!
However, after gaming, I removed the headphones from the front panel headphone jack. I noticed after that the panel lights indicating Game Mode and X-Fi functions went blank.
- I pressed the buttons and they would not relight.
- I plugged the headphones back into the panel and I still received volume (good quality); however, I no longer could control the volume level using the rotary knob.
- The buttons still would not relight. Additionally, the front panel no longer recognizes when I have headphones plugged into the jack.
It seems like a hardware issue, but maybe someone else has heard of this happening.
Please help!!!!!
With many thanks

X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Professional - Front panel compatibility

? Is the front panel from an Audgy 2ZS Platinum compatible with the X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Professional?
I already have the 2ZS with front panel and do not want to have to buy the champion to get front panel outputs from the Fatalty.

C no the two are totally different. The older one uses a 40 Pin IDE style cable, the newer uses two smaller cables.
I am like you, and wish I could have used my older nicer looking bays with my X-FI Titanium, but all things must change.

Help Need ! X-Fi Titanium Championship Fatal1ty Champion Series

Hi guys,
i recently bought?this sound card
i encounter 2 problems which i desperately need help with cause creative isnt giving me a satisfied answer
Firstly,?i cant update to the latest driver.
if i update...everytime i try to press any of the buttons(Game mode, x-fi?CMSS 3D, x-fi crystalizer) on the I/O front panel console.
i seem to lose control of I/O front panel console. i cant control the Main volume,Mic volume or any of my 3 modes using my I/O front panel console,?i can only change them through creative console launcher
secondly,
everytime i try change my recording device to "microphone FP". it keeps jumping back to "microphone" which apparently is the port on the sound card itself.
its kinda stupid to use the mic port on the sound card rather than the I/O front panel port being i paid such a high price for it mainly because of its specs but partially cause it has a I/O front panel.
someone please help me with this problem cause creative technical support hasnt been able to solve my problem
so im trying my luck to see if anyone is out there suffering the same problem as me?would?gladly?share his solution with me?to this problem =)

download the above package. remove everything you have installed originally from the CD, etc. Turn off your internet connection if you have broadband because it will install its own updates through windows updates. Install the above package. Retest your card and I/O bay.
I have used the above pack with an X-FI Xtreme Music OEM from Dell, an X-FI Fatality Pro PCI, and the Titanium. It works great. Afterwards you can update to the latest drivers without problems. If you start, as you already have, with the newest driver, things just dont work quite right in my opinion.

SB X-Fi Titanium Front Panel not working

Hello,
I would like to fully use the Front Panel, because I own a 5. Surround sound system blocking all the backpanel slots. The problem is, that I simply get no sound from the front panel sound output, while the microfone works just fine. Is there some kind of special option to enable it's
The FP is properly plugged into my SB X-Fi Titanium. And it's also not broken, because the FP works perfectly with my onboard soundchip (though it seems to cause crackling in my headphones, so I cannot use it for it).
... Okay now the Mic FP is not working aswell, eventhough it did when I tried it the last time. I set everything I could, like choosing Headphone Mode, enabling FrontPanel everywhere and all that. So why is it still not working?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Ofcourse that was something I did not know before I bought the soundcard. I am quite sure it is an AC 97 Front Panel, but how can I verify that?
Seems like I will have to sell this soundcard.
- The plugs from my 5.1 sound system are quality plugs and are rather big and so they barely fit, because the audio jacks (not sure about the correct english term here, i mean the holes from the soundcard, where you plugin the soundsystem) are sitting way too close together (expected more for that price..).
- It doesn't support my Case's Front Panel.
- And the soundcard is sitting directly before my Graphic Card's fan (because it uses PCI-E), causing heat.
I guess there is no way around it. I will probably get a new graphic card at christmas and it's most likely going to be bigger than my ATI 4850HD. And I simply do not have the space for a bigger graphic card AND a soundcard, that uses PCI-E. So I guess the best solution is to sell it and buy a soundcard that uses normal PCI and supports AC 97, right? Or what would you recommend?
Until then, is there an easy and cheap way to upgrade my ac97 front panel to Intel HD Front Panel Audio?
thanks

Does Front Panel Audio Work When Using RCA Outputs from the X-Fi Titanium HD PCIe Sound Card?

I see that the rear panel headphone output is disabled when the soundcard RCA jacks are used.
But is it possible to have the front panel audio output work at the same time that the RCA jacks are in use or is it also disabled?
I am willing to tolerate inferior quality audio feeding my monitor and use the RCA jacks for my headphone amp.

I was able to construct a work around for this problem. A Y splitter from the RCA outputs is an option but can degrade the sound because of the uneven load presented to the soundcard.
Ten eleven inch Apevia CVTAUDIOE25 HD Audio extension cables were connected together in series to a SilverStone FP32 3.5 audio front panel bay. The extension cables were connected to the front panel audio connectors on the Titanium HD sound card and then the cables were run out of the computer case and up to the area near my keyboard. I connected the front panel audio bay to the extension cable and the bay sits next to the keyboard. When no 3.5 mm stereo cable is connected to the front bay near the keyboard the sound is normal out of the rear outputs. But when a 3.5 mm audio cable is plugged into the front panel bay audio there is sound out of the SilverStone front panel bay. The sound is still muted out of the rear RCA jacks when the plug is put in the front bay but it is only used when the main audio outputs are not required.
The function for me is that the front bay serves the same purpose that the previous front panel 3.5 mm audio extension cable did.
There are photos of this under a different user name on Audio Asylum PC Audio.

I created boolean references in my main vi block diagram and copied them to my sub vi front panel. when wire my reference in my main vi to one the input node of the sub vi the wire is broken. the error says its a class conflict why?

Expanding and clarifying what BJD said;
After you create the temporary sub-VI that BJD mentioned, open its front panel and copy the reference control that LV created when it created the sub-VI.
This reference control will be correct class etc that you need. Use the control to replace the original control that you were attempting to wire up.
The technique of "create sub-VI...copy" always works for me.
There is one more thing that you should watch out for.
The mechanical action of the boolean can not be set for latch action when attempting to read the value using a value property node.

Nokia N72 Front Panel Shield Glass Broken

My Nokia N72 Front Panel Shield Glass Broken.
Could you please advice how it can be repaired & how much it should cost me for an original shield at Nokia Care center in Pune, India.

Only that Nokia Service centres/Priority Dealers in India are all third party private dealers and charge a bomb for a simple service or spare part.
I had a screen for a Nokia 2865 replaced some time back in a local mobile phone service centre and the price of doing the same in an authorised centre was 5 or 6 times higher than that.
Nokia wants to fleece customers by not giving them basic information about how customers can service their mobiles themselves. By the way, please mail me in case anybody has a service manual for a 2865 mobile.

Titanium Fatal1ty Pro and front panel audio

So I hooked up my case's front panel audio cable to the Titanium card and used the front panel connectors.
The sound quality is noticeably worse than using the back plugs. When I use the front panel mic, I also hear artifacts in the sound. When I play a game, I hear slight buzzes in accordance to what is coming out of the speakers.
I'm wondering if this is just the quality of my cases's cables or if it also happens with the official creative front panel accesory.
Anybody want to comment on quality?

/Re: Titanium Fatalty Pro and front panel audioQI had an older Audigy 2 dri've connected to my X-Fi Xtreme Music and that never had any interference. The X-Fi dri've bay can't be bought separately anymore.
When I switched to a newer X-Fi without a front panel, I used the case connectors and the sound quality was awful.
I think it's the way the connectors are wired and the build quality. Despite the really awful drivers Creative ship for their cards, the hardware's actually pretty good.
There're some guides on how to rewire front panel connectors to reduce noise:

X-Fi Titanium PCI-E and the front panel from my case

The plug from my frontpanel fit onto the soundcard, but when I plug in a headset I can't hear anything. I can hear sound on the left side of my headset when I plug it in only half the way.
My Case: Tronje H-650B
What makes me thinking is the fact that I can hear sound, but only on the left side of my headset and only when the plug is only the half way in.
Hope you can help me to solve the problem.
Greetings.

Re: X-Fi Titanium PCI-E and the front panel from my casev I tried hooking up the HD Audio front connecto of my Lian-Li A05 to the X-Fi Titanium. However, the headset is not detected (neither in nor out). Looking at the pinout I noticed that my connector has the correct pins for the signal, but lacks the following wires (completely missing):
<div class="pCellBody">4 PRESENCE#? Acti've low signal that signals BIOS that an Intel HD Audio dongle is connected to the analog header. PRESENCE# = 0 when an Intel HD Audio dongle is connected<div class="pCellBody">7 SENSE_SEND? Jack detection sense line from the Intel HD Audio CODEC jack detection resistor network
I take it these are required to make the card detect the devices. Is there a way to circumvent this?
Also, the manual gives a confusing description:
"Intel HD Front Panel Audio standard only.
Not compatible with AC97 or Intel-compatible HD Front Panel Audio"
So it is compliant with Intel, but also not compatible with Intel? Or is there a difference between "Intel" and "Intel-compatible"? This makes no sense...

TItanium XFi Front Panel audio hookups

I see that for front panel hookups you MUST have the creative IO panel, but I can't seem to find where to buy it...thought I don't want to. I am wanting to use the front panel hookups on this case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E68938? or any similar case like it. But there isn't any plugins for the audio hooksup on this "advanced" soundcard. I was wondering if the cable here would work: http://picasaweb.google.es/rmorinr/SoundBlasterXFi#5099379872528468578 ?
Or if someone could point me in the direction that creative has the IO front port hidden for purchase that would be great.

I'm getting the same issue, I've read a lot of threads elsewere and it seems that antec is not an standard HD front panel, so basically we have to plug them manually their pins unfortunatelly I haven't any luck doing that

Fatal1ty Champion Front Panel I/O Issue

'Fatalty Champion Front Panel I/O Issue I just purchased a Creative PCI Express Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Champion Series Sound Card. I have installed the card and front panel into my system with the latest drivers.
I am unable to get the front panel to work (the soundcard works fine). It has no lights, volume does not work and the mode selection does not work, in fact the only thing that works are my headphones. When I plug in my headphones my speakers mute and I get sound in my headphones. I have disconnected all connections and reconnected them ensure they are fully seated. I have reseated my card as well.

Any 5.1 Soundcard with Front Panel working under Win 7 64?

Since i'm finally fed up with my X-Fi Platinum not working in Win7 64 i would like to buy something else.
Sadly Creative seems to be the only firm producing soundcards that can have a simultanious stereo output via the front panel while having he 5.1 setup connected at the back.
So as much as i would like to stick it to Creative. But do they have anything with a frontpanel like the Titanium but working under Win7 64?

Hi,
What driver version are you using now? The one that's on the install CD that's included with the soundcard or the latest driver that's available via Creative Labs download service? Provide more info, otherwise no-one can help you. Anyway, the X-fi Platinum (including the Platinum drive bay) should work in Windows 7 x86 and x64.
Try downloading and installing Daniel_K unofficial driver packs for the X-fi and see which one works the best for you.
Daniel_K unofficial driver pack SB X-Fi Series Support Pack 2.5 (10/25/2011)
Daniel_K unofficial driver pack SB X-Fi Series AuzenUAA Pack 1.8 (10/25/2011)
Daniel_K unofficial driver pack SB X-Fi Series AuzenWDM Pack 1.8 (10/25/2011)
Uninstall the old X-fi drivers first and then use "Driver Sweeper" in Windows Safe mode to wipe X-fi drivers that are still left in the Windows OS. Make sure you create a restore point in Windows 7 first, so you can roll-back if something goes wrong.
Good luck!

Sound Blaster Titanium Champion Series

&?Hello,
I recently bought a Sound Blaster Fatality Titanium Champion series cound (the one with the front panel included).
Sound and everything seems fine. One very annoying issue (not for me but mainly for the other people who are listening to me on Ventrilo) is that they hear a constant "buzzing" noise when I speak. I can't seem to get rid of it.
It was actually worse before as I was able to hear the constant buzzing too. Until I unplugged the mic and audio jack from the back sound card and plugged it into the front panel instead.
I also updated to the latest drivers as far as I can tell.
Any idea on how to fix this?
I am using a Sennheiser PC360 Headset. I don't believe it is the headset's issue, it works fine on my other systems without the constant buzzing.
Many thanks in advance.

Eljher,
Sorry about that, Customer Support do not monitor these boards. Please write to them here.

Problem with console launcher and Titanium Champion Series

Hi all. I've recently got a X-Fi Titanium Fatality Champion Series, it's running on XP. As you know with the original drivers the I/O front panel didn?t work on XP, so I updated to the latest version 2.7.8. The problem is that now the I/O front panel seems to work, but the console launcher has been updated too to the 2.6.1.45 version and it's not working properly, when previously it was. I?ve detected two problems:
1) You can enable the equalizer on any mode but the list of presets (rock, pop, jazz...) don?t appear
2) The console launcher crashes in the very moment you click on the Mixer thumb index, at least in Game mode, appearing an error message
I would thank any help. Bye.

Well, given I've still not received an answer, I think this may help somebody with the same problem.
I decided to install the Console Launcher 2.6.1.49 (beta) and it's working perfect so far, the two problems I told about have been fixed.
Another problem I had with the latest official drivers was that the volume panel wasn't shown at the taskbar. I simply fixed it by installing the original volume panel you can find in the installation CD.
Bye.
