X-Fi Xtreme Audio no bass on 5.1 surround under vista 64??

Hi there I'm not sure if this question has been asked before or not but here I go.
Is it possible to get the subwoofer on my 5. setup to work when playing music? I have an X-Fi Xtreme Audio card and I'm using Windows Vista 64bit. I downloaded the latest drivers.
When I play music only the front speakers work, there is no sound from the other speakers or the subwoofer. How do I get this to work?
I ran the tests to make sure all the speakers and the subwoofer are connected properly? (Speakers section of the X-fi menu) and they all seem to work. I have read somewhere that music is stereo and therefore wont work on the rear speakers but how do I get the subwoofer to work?
Thanks in Advance
Luke

Hi thanks, now all the speakers work! But still no subwoofer. I have tried the bass redirection but no luck?
Any thoughts?
Thanks?

This is a known bug that Creative still did not fix.
For the Bass Redirection to work, the speakers must be small (not full range).
My package fixes the issue.

  • [X-Fi Xtreme Audio PCI] Bass Boost vs Vista 64

    Hardware: X-Fi Xtreme Audio PCI
    Problem: BassBoost not working after 2nd reboot.
    1) Installed drivers
    2) System rebooted
    3) BassBoost works
    4) System rebooted
    5) BassBoost NOT WORKING!
    ... I press "reset to defaults" -> BassBoost can work again until I reboot the system...

    Thank you very much for this fix Daniel. It works great now and has removed my frustration of having to reset my settings everytime I rebooted. It might seem like a small issue to some people, but I was ready to go out and buy a new sound card because I was getting tired of having to setup my sound all the time. Thanks again,Wookie

  • Audio crackle/pop with new MacBook Pro under Vista

    I just got a brand new MacBook Pro (multi-touch, Penryn cpu) and have used Boot Camp to install Windows Vista on it. Vista installed fine, and then I used the Restore DVDs that came with my MBP to install the drivers. The Device Manager shows that everything is installed.
    All is not well, however. Whenever sound is being output, there are random crackles or pops - sometimes there will only be one every 5 minutes or so, sometimes there are 10 of them right in a row. The only clue I can find is that the Problem Reports And Solutions application in Vista says that there is a "Compatibility issue between Intel 82801GBM (ICH7-M) LPC Interface Controller - 27B9 and Windows Vista." There is no solution offered. I don't know if this problem is directly related to the audio problems, but it seems likely.
    Has anyone else encountered this? Any way to fix this and stop the audio crackles?

    Well after a week and a half of testing and being unsatisfied with choppy audio on my MBP I believe I may have found the answer. The cause lies in the audio API within Vista; there is a specific service (Multimedia Class Scheduler) that adjusts the priority of multimedia applications according to resources available and one of the factors that affects the prioritization is network usage.
    I tried pretty much every Broadcom driver available from HP and Dell to no avail; some reduced the frequency of the pops and crackles but none of them removed it completely.
    I believe the solution lies within several registry keys that control the Multimedia Class Scheduler service. Open up regedit and modify the following keys:
    HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Multimedia\SystemProfile
    Set NetworkThrottlingIndex and SystemResponsiveness to 10 each (decimal)
    and
    HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Multimedia\SystemProfile\Tasks\Audio
    Set SchedulingPriority to High.
    After changing these 2 keys I couldn't here any audible stutter regardless of whichever driver I used. I am currently using v1.96 for the Realtek and 4.170.77.3 for the Broadcom.

  • X-Fi Xtreme Audio PCIe still no bass on "Teufel 5.1"

    As the title suggests I have still no bass. Neither the PAX driver nor the latest Creative driver (XFXA_PCDRV_LB__04_0000) fixed the problem and if I am not wrong, the bass redirection option isn't designated for the latest Creative driver.
    The "SB P7X Series Support Pack 2.0" seems also not to be intended for the PCIe version, the setup doesn't even start .So, is there any owner of the obove mentioned soundcard who gets bass under Windows 7 32-bit ?
    PS: Sorry for my bad English -> German

  • Xfi xtreme audio no treble/bass contro

    i just recently bought a xfi xtreme audio soundcard..
    everything works well, except i cant find the treble / bass control in neither the windows volume panel nor creative launch console.. T_T
    the treble / bass?control is grayed out, is this function not available for xfi extreme audio? or?issit the drivers problem?
    i just feel disappointed with it if?it'streble / bass control is disabled for this soundcard..
    becos even my old time SB Li've 5. Digital Entertainment got this?function...

    i mean Creative shouldn't just repackaged the old AudigySE under X-FI series just because it redesign the software/driver used...well, they can named it as 'AudigyVista' if they want to let people know it's support under Vista....just named it as X-Fi XtremeAudio' is just a big misleading, can considered as cheating also....and the introduce of XtremeAudio also expose the ugly truth that the so called 'X-FI =Xtreme Fidelity' function such as Csytalizer is just the cheap effect emulated by the software and not the function that processed by the chip at all...

  • Driver Version Not Found" Error when installing drivers for X-fi Xtreme audio

    I recently bought the game Bioshock off steam and have been unable to play as it crashes as soon as I try to launch it. After doing some digging around I found out it was a sound problem. When I was looking at the drivers for my sound card (Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio) I noticed that the driver called:?XFXA_PCDRV_LB__04_0079.exe has a fix for Bioshock. However when I install the driver I get the error "Driver version not found". I am positi've it is the correct driver for my sound card. I am on Windows 7 64bit.

    Hey!
    I have Vista Ultimate x64 and I ran windows update couple days ago. There was a new update for my xtreme audio pci-e. I installed it and now my driver version in creative software update is .3.2. Before i updated i ran creative's own software update. It didn't find any new drivers. I was WTF. I think that new driver fixed my volume problem. I had problem's when there was a deep bass in a song. The sound card lowered volume levels then somehow. Now that happens no more. In vista's device control it shows the driver version as 6.0.0.203. Driver date is 7 october 2008.

  • Explain me something about X-Fi Xtreme Audio PCI-Express version

    @Explain me something about X-Fi Xtreme Audio PCI-Express version? Hello,
    I have a question about this card.
    I've received my pc week ago and as I didn't know what to take about sound card (contrary to other pieces) and I didn't want integreted one, so I took the X-Fi Xtreme Audio PCI-Express. I didn't want to fall intro trap of X-Fi Xtreme Audio (normal) which isn't an X-Fi one in fact... BUT according to Wikipedia ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_Blaster_X-Fi#X-Fi_Xtreme_Audio ) Apparently mine isn't an X-Fi too? It's just a CA00 chipset one which 7. support?
    With all the problems I have (sounds leave and come back without my intervention, or begin to be like headphone mode, you know, compressed sound), I would like an answer. This card is or isn't a "real" X-Fi sound card or it's just a poor Audigy?
    Or CA00 is enough good contrary to EMU20?
    Because the titanium one isn't so expensi've, I could go for it. (Yeah I'll ask to my sellor if I can give them back my sound card if I have too many problems!)

    D Oh yeah by the way, I'll make the most of this topic to ask you why it's possible to activate the bass settings on console launcher and not in the other application "Audio Sound Panel" (sorry for my english, mine is in french) and why I can't set the bass and treble like I did on my Audigy

  • X-Fi Xtreme Audio in Vi

    I recently installed windows vista ultimate and my old card 5. Li've didnt work anymore so I bought X-Fi Xtreme Audio. Everything is just fine but I have a little problem. I only get 5. sound in games. While listening to music or watching movies I only get stereo sound. The 5. Li've had an option "Bass Redirection" and I could hear the bass in music and movies but with X-Fi I cant find that option. Does anyone know what I must do to hear the bass while listening to music and watching movies? Thanks.

  • SB X-fi Xtreme Audio PCI-E Not working correctly help please

    Hi i have a SB X-fi Xtreme Audio PCI-E card on my pc , i have currently installed windows 7 and for months now i am trying to make the card work .. I have a poor sound especially when there is bass, the card is not detected by windows 7, its detected as a high definition audio device , when i plug my mic is not found..and i cant use the creative applications because is says its not supported or i have no creative poroducts on my pc ... I have tried all the latest drivers and stil have the same problem.. HELP PLEASE !!

    First, uninstall all creative drivers, console, from add/remove. Restart computer install: . X-Fi Xtreme Audio Series Driver .04.0000 from creative website. 2.X-Fi Xtreme Audio Pack .03.0002 from creative website. 3. install Creative Console from here: http://forums.creative.com/t5/Sound-Blaster/PAX-Console-Launcher-V-0/td-p/549970 * PAX Console, Modded Original Console, but newer then Creative) or this creative console: CSL_PCAPP_LB_2_6_09.exe ( it creative original console) With this console you will have bass, treble, etc, BUT you need to open ConsoLCu.exe from Program Files/Creative/Console Launcher. ConsoLCu.exe have all the options you need. Creative forget about thier sound board, thier drivers, bass, treble, etc, about customers. If you install thier drivers from their website you will not have BASS, and also an crappy sound. You need to install Creative Console from google, or from http://forums.creative.com/t5/Sound-Blaster/PAX-Console-Launcher-V-0/td-p/549970 to have bass, crystalizer, etc. I also have Creative Audio PCI-e board..... crappy chipset, just like Sb Li've 24 biti PCI.

  • Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio P

    I want to buy the , not PCI express ,i what to know before i buy the audio board , is there a problem in windows vista can i play music is the bass management available i have an audigy LS and it doesnt work whit vista. I know the pci express works fine .

    audigy LS/Value/SE and X-Fi Xtreme Audio PCI is identical as hardware. The only difference is software which includes crystallizer support. Creative purposely doesn't release the full software for Audigy LS/Value/SE to confuse their customers (like you) to buy new (identical) hardware. If you have Audigy LS don't EVER but a X-Fi Extreme Audio PCI.
    There's enough software (even with crystallizer enabled )for your audigy card. You can google it easily find it.

  • How can i quick edit Audio( increase bass) of a single file?

    Hi everyone,
    Im new to FCPX. I have a bunch of videos of music gigs ive played and would like to increase the bass (via equalizer) on most of them. All these videos are already converted into an "Apple Friendly" format and are sitting comfortably in my Itunes Video folder. How can i quickly increase the bass in each video (Without having to tediously export one by one) in FCPX and do a quick overwrite over the original video without having to make an EXTRA file?
    THanks

    ok.
    "Why don't you increase the bass with the equalizer in FCP? Do it to one clip and use paste attributes to apply it to other clips."
    1) How do i copy the attributes after making the changes??
    2) How do i paste the attributes onto the next file?
    Thanks.
