X-fi Xtreme Audio card Digital I/O in Windows Vi

Hallo,?Recently I bought an X-fi Xtreme Audio card and installed it in a PC using both Windows XP SP2 and Windows Vista. The card has to work connected to a Creative Inspire 5. Digital 5700 external decoder. I installed the card and used it with no problems under windows XP SP2.
In order to connect the card with the external decoder I had to check an option "Digital Output only" in Entertainment Mode - Speakers and headphones section. Now, on the same computer, I'm trying to use the card with Windows Vista.
The system recognize the card and I was able to install software and driver for the card (driver version is .4.65 as "Creative System Information" application reported). If I connect an headphone to Line Out connector I can hear music playing.But I cannot select Digital I/O output.
In Vista, Entertainment Mode hasn't any checkbox to allow "Digital Output only" to work.
So I don't have any idea on how select Digital I/O output. Anyone can help me?Thank you in advance.

Hi?I had the same problem, and here is the solution. ) Make sure u download the latest drivers for Vista. 2) After the installation u can goto the Control Panel> Sound Settings?You will see that there is 2devices listed. st is the Speakers configuration2nd there is the SPDIF configuration. Alter first the Speakers configuration to ur needs, enable the Digital out! > make sure u never select a frequency above 48khzAlter the SPDIF settings and test the sample rates that is given on the screen sothat u know what works with the card and not. If there are any problems leave the settings i gave exactly as instructed, and then goto urAudio Console and check there is a headphone settings and disable them. Try again thereafter!?Good Luck!Marvin?IT & Audio Specialist

X-fi Xtreme Audio card problems!

Hi!?I bought a X-fi Xtreme Audio card today. installed, and now I get a big fps drop in Battlefield 2, first of all I cant enable Creative X-fi in the Audio tap under options in the game, it says the card does not supoort bla bla bla, if I chose to use Hardware I cant play the game due to extreme lag, with normal software, same settings I used with my onboard card, Realtek AC 97, I still got big fps drop... What is this **bleep**?Hey I want my money back, this **bleep** is useless... or is there some sort of fix? or is my card complete garbage?kind regards from an angry customer?//Stripflash

First, please refrain from using profanity on the forums: it is against the rules.
Next, it sounds like something definately isn't working right, as the X-fi shouldn't drag down your framerate at all. I would start off with a "cleansweep" uninstall/reinstall. On this website, click "Support" then KnowledgeBase, and in the searchbox type "SID72."
Let us know how it goes!
Good luck,
Dale

Problem with SoundBlaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio Card Installat

I just completed installation of my X-Fi Xtreme Audio card for PCI express slot. I followed instructions and cancelled the prompt for audio drivers (by the hardware wizard) and installed via the Creative Labs CD. The installation went well and the card appears to be
functioning normally. My problem is that whenever I boot up the computer, the hardware wizard keeps discovering my card as new hardware and prompting me for a driver. I have been cancelling each time, but the last time I put in the CD, and had it search for the driver in the Audio/Drivers/driver/WinXP/bin, but it didn't seem to be able to locate the driver to satisfy itself.
What should I do (besides turning off the hardware wizard) to end this cycle of "new hardware found" episodes every time I boot.
I hope that someone can help with this.
ps: I would have liked to speak briefly with a Creative Tech Support person, but they seem to have conveniently left any telephone contact numbers off of their website, so I must depend on your help. Thanks.

Hi,
Please check the "Support" folder on your installation CD for Customer Support contact details.

X-Fi Xtreme Audio Card not work

Hello, in my first time building a computer, I've had problems that have been solved via various forums, and I'm finally at my last problem that I need to fix. I got an X-Fi extreme audio card that isn't working properly. I know that the card isn't broken or inserted improperly, as when I test the speakers through the card (I'm using the green analog cable, plugged into the card), it works nicely. However, when I try to listen to anything else, like music, youtube, etc, I can only get sound (occasionally) through the headphone jack, which makes things sound really strange through the speakers. When I try to put headphones in (the headphone jack), they don't make any sound. Does anyone know a solution to this? I've tried going through all the settings, turning the mobo's onboard audio controller on and off, and many other things. I'm using a Abit IN9 32X MAX motherboard, Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio VARPAK 7. Channels 24-bit 96KHz PCI Express Interface Sound Card?and 32-bit Vista.

Today you're lucky, i also have an MSI XFI Audio but it's PCIe, if your card is PCIe, here is the CD:This CD is from a user named NUJA, http://nuja.free.fr/SBXAudioPCIe.rar , contain : CREATIVE_ALCHEMY_X-FI .00.07
Audio Console 2.40.2
Console Launcher 2.30.32
Creative Volume Panel 2.0.80
driver din 03/04/2008,6.0.0.20
This CD is better then CD from MSI, it has newer application and drivers.

Edit to tape audio promlem - sounds like "chorus" effect

I have tried to Edit to Tape an HDV Sequence, down converted to SD, to a Digibeta deck.
When I monitor (headphone out of digibeta deck) while recording it sounds normal. When I rewind and check tape it sounds like the audio is "doubled up", almost like a very short chorus effect is on the audio. as well as this I can hear what sounds like tape crackle now and again.
However - when I do a straight crash record from the timeline - the audio plays back fine, no crackle.
So thinking it was an edit to tape settings problem i clicked on the audio button in the edit to tape window and notice audio was set to ALL ON. I changed this to A1 and A2 on, thinking that my extra audio tracks (which I had disabled, these where the original audio, not the OMF exported stereo mix) were somehow going down the SDI anyway...
No luck - did the edit to tape again and still sounded the same.
My heart rate has returned to normal now as the network kindly will accept the crash record with non standard timecode - but I of course still want to find out the problem so this doesn't happen again next week....
The Sequence was HDV 1080i, via a Decklink HD Extreme Capture Card, set to down convert to anamorphic 16:9. Sony Digibeta DVW-A500P deck.
Anyone know what the problem could be?
thanks
Hugh

for the benefit of anyone who searches for forum for a similar problem - it appears to have been a sync issue. changing "out ref" to "input video" appears to have fixed it.

Audio export sounds like its in a tin cup

I have exported my project multiple times with different settings but each results in sounding like its in a tin cup, or sounds like its from a cheap cell phone. I imported the audio into audition and exported it to my desktop and it sounded fine but if I use premire it ruins the audio. It just started doing this in the past few days and I haven't changed anything that I am aware of. Please any help would be great as this is for my employment!

The audio like you mentioned "sounds like it's from a cheap cell phone" only happens when you cut out the top end and low end frequencies, which clearly looks like a work of an EQ (or any other similar) plugin. Are you sure you heard the exported audio on your desktop and it sounded normal? If yes, then make sure the audio track in premiere doesn't have any effects on it. Also make sure your audio jack's inserted properly. Also listen to something else and see how that sounds just to make sure your speakers/headphones didn't snap.

Sounds like someone is pushing buttons while talking

IPhone 5 - it seems to be getting worse. I always thought it was my mom pushing buttons on her phone while we were talking. But last night we were talking via Bluetooth. No one was holding a phone. It seems to happen when a woman is speaking. I'm wondering if it has something to do with a tone in the voice that triggers a "tone" sound. Like someone is pushing numbers on the phone. It's highly annoying and the other person can hear it. What causes this and how can it be stopped?

Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
Well, the phone should turn the screen off when you hold it against your ear. Does the sensors work as they should in other apps? You could try running Diagnostics under Settings > About phone.

Need STP Audio to sound like LP

Anyone know of a plugin or effect that will allow me to take a audio clip and dirty it up to sound like an old LP record player with the pops and hisses? I've searched and couldn't find anything but I may not be using the right search criteria.
Thanks in advance.

"Sounds" like someone is taking a snapshot of g5 without my permission

Hi There,
I'm concerned I'm being hacked because from time to time I hear the sound of a camera lens shutter.
Is there a way of detecting if there has been activity?
Any advice or help will be much appreciated.
Kindest regards
Rob Slaney

Sorry, Console is in Applications>Utilities, run that and watch the System & Console Logs around the time of the click.
But if you don't have an iSight or Camera hooked up, then the Sound is likely a Hard drive going bad, or a Fan, or...
If you wish to check further on the Hacking possibility, (doesn't sound like it to me, but), might look into this...

K9N2 Diamond and Xtreme Audio Card

The sound card that came with this board came with a driver/program CD. I've followed directions and ran the installation, but when I click on the Audio Console Launcher to configure it, I get a warning that, "The current selected audio device is not supported by the application. Do you want to select another audio device now?"
If I click "NO"...thats it.
If I click "YES", I get another warning saying, "The Creative Audio Device Selection module cannot be launched. The module may be missing from your system. You may need to reinstall your application."
If I run the CD again, to reinstall the so-called module, I still run into the same problem.
The problem really is I can't use my headset w/mic for online gaming. Headset shows up in the Playback Devices but there is no "configure" option--greyed out.
What seems to be the malfunction?

Audio file sounds like Donald Duck on helium

I made a jingle in GarageBand. Then I dictated an audio file on my iPod with iTalk which hot-synced into iTunes. I then dragged the dictated audio file from iTunes to GB to try to mix the jingle and the audio together, but after my audio file is imported, it runs way too fast. I looked here for an answer: http://thehangtime.com/gb/gbfaq2.html#toofast - but it didn't work.
What do I do? GB 2.0.1 iTunes 4.9 iPod 4th gen.
TIA
JV

Try this:
1. Download Sound Studio at this link: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/audio/soundstudio.html
2. Once you've installed it, open the program, and under the FILE menu select IMPORT WITH QUICKTIME to load your vocal audio file.
3. Once it has loaded properly, pull down the FILE menu and select SAVE AS
4. Rename the file, and under the FORMAT pull-down menu, select WINDOWS WAVE
5. Take the file from your desktop and drag it into Garageband. This should eliminate the "sped-up" effect and it should play at normal speed and pitch.
Let me know if that works.
