X-Fi Xtreme Audio, Vista Audio probl

Hi everyone,
First off, I believe I may have gotten the worse X-Fi card available. Anyways, I'm having some audio problems. It's when I turn on the the X-Fi Equalizer's 62 Hz up to almost the fullest. Then, I turn up my Media Player's volume, that's when I get soft and somewhat loud volume. The way to get rid of that is not to mess with my Media Player's volume control. But to turn up the volume control of Vista (which shows by the computer's clock). I don't know what to do. I used to have a Audigy SE, but, I read up that the X-Fi Xtreme Audio is pretty much the same card. I heard that the X-Fi XtremeGamer has almost the same problems as the X-Fi Xtreme Audio, with volume problems. Hopefully someone will reply and help me out. Vista is becoming a pain. I bet XP doesn't have these audio problems. But Vista is different when it comes to sound.

i had that card before and traded it for audigy 4 to get rid of problems
can u please tell me what s your CPU load when you just listen to music?

  • Problems with 1.5 and vista - audio recording

    Hello.  I have PP 1.5.  I have an Audio Techinca AT2020USB microphone.  I have a couple different computers running 1.5 - The one that has XP as an OS, I can use the mic to record audio.  On the computer that runs Vista, I can not.  Is anyone aware of any patch or anything that will allow me to make this work?
    Please, advise.  Thank you.

    As Jim points out, CS3 was the first Vista-certified version, though many did get PrPro 2.0 to run on it.
    Now, if PrPro 1.5 is running otherwise, you might have some luck with http://www.asio4all.com You'll need to download this freeware, install it, and then point PrPro to it in Edit>Preferences>Audio Hardware>Asio Settings for input and output.
    Good luck,

  • Hi there, can anyone tell me how to make make Garageband ignore HDMI as an audio output-device on a 2013 Mac Mini? Now it keeps on prompting me: Do you want want to use the HDMI device (monitor without audio) for audio output? Thanks in advance, Grtz T.

    Hi there,
    Can anyone tell me how to make make Garageband ignore HDMI as an audio output-device on a 2013 Mac mini i7 using an Apogee jam as an input for bass and a Behringer USB DAC with RCA audio output? Now it keeps on prompting me: Do you want want to use the HDMI device (monitor without audio) for audio output? I'm also suffering massive audio lag issues with the Apogee jam after waking the mini from sleepmode, wich pretty much renders it useless.
    Thanks in advance,
    Grtz T.

    I think the easiest way to do this is to have the EyeTV app running in one user account and sent via HDMI to the TV, and use a separate user account for Screen Sharing. Both logins can be active at the same time and with Lion you can connect via screen sharing to which ever login you need.
    With regards to the Mac video resolution changing, when it is not the current input on your AV receiver. This is 'normal', if the Mac sees no signal it drops down the a lower level. What you need is to buy a HDMI Detective Plus which tricks the Mac in to always seeing a signal and hence it will not drop down the resolution. See http://www.gefen.com/kvm/dproduct.jsp?prod_id=8005
    The Mac mini does have an IR receiver. This can be used with the EyeTV app, iTunes, and similar. Yes I believe EyeTV would run for prolonged periods quite happily, it is has been around for a long time and had most of the rough edges polished off. However one issue you will have to deal with is that it does not automatically update its program guide data. For this you might have to write or modify an AppleScript. Elgato support or their user forums will be a lot of help.
    You can set EyeTV to convert recordings to an iTunes (Apple TV) compatible format and then delete them from EyeTV.
    The HDMI Detective should solve your handshaking problems.

  • When I publish a video, I lose half of the audio in "audio 2". I can hear it while editing. How do I fix this?

    I published a video as an mpeg, and when I listened to the final product it was missing some music I had in the "audio 2" slot. How do I fix this?

    Cameron
    Is the problem Audio Track 2 music from any of your royalty free music websites? Is the sound missing in the export
    standalone audio files
    or
    audio that is linked to video?
    What is directly under or above these files on the Timeline?
    Download and install the free codec utility named GSpot.
    And, tell us the readouts for Audio name, codec, and status.
    GSpot Codec Information Appliance
    If also video component of the file, then please include the Video name, codec, and status information from the GSpot readout.
    See what information you can put together on the properties of those royalty free audio files, including file extension. Are you dealing with Stereo or 5.1 channel (AAC or Dolby Digital)?
    As for project preset, versions 11 and 12 were designed so that the project takes charge of setting the project settings based on the properties of
    the first file drag to the Timeline. Sometimes it does it right. Sometimes not. If not, then you set the project preset manually using the properties of
    your file. See ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE11: Accuracy of Automatic Project Preset (New Project Dialog) Setting
    Lots of additional questions...curious how you hear the Audio 2 audio in Edit area but not in the exported file which you report as
    Publish+Share>Computer>MPEG under the preset "MPEG2 1920x1080i 30.
    Any export setting customization going on under the Advanced Button/Video Tab and Audio Tab of that preset?
    Please review and consider and then we will decide what next.
    Thank you.

  • Analyzing DV Audio - Validating Audio Data

    Sony UVW-1600 through ADS Pyro A/VLINK using S-Video in/Firewire 400 out
    Audio through Alesis MultiMix 8 USB mixer - 44.1 kHz output only
    Just did clean install of Snow Leopard, reinstall/updates on FCP
    Otherwise same configuration as before but lost original Custom AV settings and Easy Setups.
    Now when I capture BetaSP material, video through the A/VLINK and audio through the Alesis, I'm getting messages I never used to get:
    If I set my Capture Preset to 48 kHz audio, at close of capture I get "Analyzing DV Audio - Validating Audio Data"
    If I set my Capture Preset to 44.1 kHz (matching the Alesis output), I get a long message saying the audio data rate of my captured media file doesn't match the sample rate on my source file.
    From checking old captured clips, I see that I've always been capturing at 48 kHz but never got the "Analyzing DV Audio" message before. Not seeing any sync problems.
    Anyone know why I'm suddenly getting this message? I don't want to capture audio through the DV stream as my source tape levels are all over the place. Thanks

    Okay, I've answered my own question (I think) but could be helpful to others: in setting up my replacement (after the reinstall) Capture Preset I made a custom preset that selected "USB Audio Codec" for "Quicktime Audio Settings Device." So FCP was seeing video come in through the Firewire stream and audio through the USB stream. It evidently wanted to "validate" the rejoining of the two. I've just changed that Quicktime Audio Settings Device back to DV Audio and now I don't get the validating message. In OS X System Preferences I have "USB Codec" chosen for default audio input so FCP must be using that setting but "thinks" it's getting audio from the Firewire DV stream. I'd tried that earlier but lost audio completely during FCP capture. Now it's working. Odd...

  • Audio to audio chat

    This may sound stupid, but I have used ichat exclusively to IM with my brother.
    We both have ichat 3 and have never tried audio to audio. How is this done?

    Hi Kevin,
    Ok.
    iChat launches and you can text chat. So far so good but not very exciting and very frusting if you are trying to Video chats or Audio only chat.
    Right, iChat needs to have ports open in your Mac Firewall if it is ON and in your Modem. The ones on your modem are likely to outside the ones that are open for web browsing and email (Out-of-the-Box stuff) default settings.
    The ports and why and when http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/page3.html
    Scroll down this blog to 7th Sept for the ports required in a table layout. http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/blog.html
    This page contains a Pic at the top that changes between the Panther and Tiger set of the Mac Firewall. http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/page4.html It also details the ports that have to be opened.
    Problems can arise when you have a separate Router and modem. Some applications like web browser and email can cope with both devices acting as DHCP servers. iChat has to be certain of the IP address it is sending data to and works better if there is only DHCP server.
    The ports in a modem (and or router) can be opened if different ways depending on the options your device offers you.
    The most common is Port Forwarding (Also called Virtual Servers, Pinholes, NAT, NAPT amoungst pthers)
    Next is port Triggering. Designed as a more secure way of having only one port open until the data arrives on that Port and then other ports are Triggered.
    UPnP works under the control of the appication and opens ports when the application needs them. iChat can use UPnP.
    Some of this is also mentioned on Page 3 in the links above.
    There was a problem when Tiger users were at iChat 3.0 and 3.0.1 when it was difficult for those iChat users to connect Audio only to Panther users but this has been addressed by the 10.4.3 update (iChat 3.1).
    Have you opened the ports in your Modem ?
    Do you have a second device such as a router ?
    IS only one device being a DHCP server ?
    IS this a Panther to Tiger problem ? EDIT I See not.
    BTW, My telephone is grayed out. Do I have to subscribe to .mac?
    From your earlier post
    Check the iChat View menu has Show Audio Status selected.
    Check the Audio menu(if no camera) to the right of Buddies (reads Video if camera), has Microphone Enabled with a tick next to it.
    In System Preferences > Sound > Input tab make sure the "right" micorphone is selected.
    In iChat Preferences > Video (even if audio only) > Micorphone Drop Down has the same Microphone selected.

  • Record drive/partition "Audio Files /Audio Recording" not found!

    Record drive/partition "Audio Files /Audio Recording" not found!

    myrna wrote:
    Any idea what path blogger Jim Frazier uses? BTY, only the audio portion does not record; the >instruments record just fine. If this is indeed a bug, is there a workaround that will get me recording >until a fix is found...
    I actually have not had this happen to me in several months, and in fact, haven't even thought about it in a while.
    But back when it would happen, I would be working away, recording audio without any problems, and then I'd hit record again for something, and out of nowhere, get a message like this:
    "olumes/Audio Drive/Album Projects/John Doe/Song title/Audio Files" not found.
    When the first word should have been "Volumes".
    So I would click and hold the record button to get to reset my audio pathway, and the proper path would already be listed. I would then merely click the "Set" button, and be back in business.
    And there were even a handful of times when I would get that message with the full name listed, the V was there in "Volumes', and everything listed correctly, and going to the record settings, everything was set properly. But I'd still have to hit "Set" to remind Logic where the pathway was pointed to.
    Definitely a bug.
    But... this bug never happened to me in Logic 7. It was only since installing and using Logic 8, that it occurred. And as I mentioned, it now hasn't happened in months.

  • Need help with PCI Express X-Fi Xtreme Audio - Vista

    Hi, bought this card pci exprss x-fi xtreme audio and installed, had a lot of problems in vista 64. Using a logitech z5500 5. soundsystem and first tried using the optical spdif to get DTS etc working but to no joy... Started using the 3.5 kables but nothing there either. And I cant find options to set the treble and base? the sound is really medioker as it is now.
    Using the latest drivers for the card issued in may 08, latest alchemy and console files. what to do?
    Dave?

    To Collipa and Dudeface:
    If you installed the support pack for the card but still have driver problems, have you used windowsudpate under Windows 7? Creative submitted a basic driver for the card that shows up in driver options under Windows Update. If you can let Windows Update install that driver, then you can update AFTER rebooting with the new one.
    If that windowsupdate did not work, try this:
    Download the newest driver for your card. Then, if you already have winace, winzip, winrar or even the free 7Zip, then you can right click that Creative executable file and then choose to........extract to......and do so to a temporary folder on your desktop or say, c:\Creative driver.
    Then go to device manager and sound video and game controllers, and to your problem sound card, click driver, and update driver and browse my computer for software, and "let me pick"? and "have disk" and then browse to.......
    C:\Creative driver\Install\wdm
    Whereever you downlaoded the file to, the important directory is the INSTALL\WDM and choose OK and it should show Creative X-FI. Let it copy files, and it does take awhile, and then reboot and see if your sound card works.
    here is the newest driver for your card:

  • Windows Vista, Audio and Recording Proble

    I have just installed Windows Vista, and am having some serious problems with my audio. My problem is, that my mic does not function at all, and i have spent two days trying to fix this. My sound card is a Creative Soundbalster 5. sound card, and?apparenty will not work,?as it is supposedly?not Vista supported, but please, prove me wrong. I can only get sound output if i use intergrated, as there seems to be no drivers for 64-Bit VistaI?am using intergrated sound at the moment, and i can hear fine, but my mic will not work at all.
    I have tried all the obvious options and as said, spent two days trying to fix it. As stated, i am running 64-Bit Windows Vista, and have a Creative SoundBlaster 5. that has no drivers.When i use intergrated, i get sound but the mic wont work.Any help at all would be appreciated, so please, help if you know anything. Thanks, Nos.

    If you try the modded drivers by Daniel_K, you will get full functionality like in XP. But if you still want to have Vista's enhancements, then you should modify the Installation INF of the drivers.
    I have detailed the necessary steps in this thread a long time ago.

  • XFI Xtreme Audio - Vista - XFX8800GTX - LA

    Hi,?Hoping some regular contributors here can help with a familiar issue in Vista and it's driver support. I have a hi-spec gaming machine that works A-OK in XP, but despite recent release of NVIDIA's 00.64 drivers that supposedly support G80 cards like my 2 x 8800GTX in full SLI for DX9 I am getting very poor performance in real games. 3D benchmark scores are only slightly lower (00 down over 3,000+), but in real games - most noticeably COD2 the whole game lags noticeably both online and single player. Like most I put this down to NVIDIA and it's Vista drivers, but I am now wondering if my XFi card and it's drivers for Vista may also be part or even all of the issue!
    The reason for this is that the sound (particularly 3D sound) lags as well and it is when the sound lags that the game lags. I have also read some of the technical posts by admin here and it mentions early issues with Vista and in particular 3D effects sound. Does anyone else have G80 graphics, Xfi sound and Vista and can they advise what you have found about this 3D sound issue and are the Feb 6th Drivers for Xfi and Vista any better than the previous ones I am now using?Ridesy

    Just curious, you have quite a rig there, but with an odd mismatch in performance parts. The X-fi Extreme Audio is the budget model which really should not have been called an X-fi. It has no hardware mixing/processing (thats done by software) which?impacts performance. It doesnt even use the same drivers as the other 'real' X-fi cards. And unlike the other X-fi cards, it wont be compatible with the Alchemy software to regain the EAX effects in Vista. I'm pretty sure you'll end up ditching it as you find out more about it:?http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?t=200348?
