Re: More highs in my Creative Labs x-vi xtreme sound card
Windows mixer is the standard windows volume control, sndvol32. It should be on your system tray and can be found in programs/accessories/entertainment. The Creative Audio console didn't have tone controls for my card. But, there are tone controls for my card in Creative Surround mixer. - Original Message - From: Dave McElroy WA6BEF d...@drakelroy.com To: 'PC Audio Discussion List' pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Sunday, November 29, 2009 1:06 PM Subject: RE: More highs in my Creative Labs x-vi xtreme sound card I'm confused.

RE: best mp3 tag program portable or standalone
I certainly agree with this. You can now not only tag files dependent on folders, but also get tags from places like freeedb and musicbrainz, provided you know the name of the album.

Re: Speaking of Creative labs...
The real problem people have with Creative cards is poor drivers and software support for low latency multi-track audio and multiple plug-ins for digital audio work stations such as Sonar.. My older Audigy 4 pro sounds quite good and recordings are fantastic. But, asio is a bit dodgy with some soft instrument plug-ins in Sonar. I have not had experience with the X-FI cards yet. They should be just fine for basic stereo recording and surround playback. But, if you are a musician or media producer, you would be better off with more professional gear. I wish it was easy to compare the sound of different audio devices.

Surround plugins hardware etc
Hi, I spend a lot of time listening to music through headphones, and have tried on many occasions to find a piece of software which psycho acoustically creates a feeling of depth through headphones. I've looked at a couple, but none are particularly accessible. D Does anyone on the list have experience of any hardware/software solution to this problem. Thanks, David.

Sonic Problem Solved
High List members, I had a sonic problem making recordings with Wave Pad Audio Editor yesterday, and posted it on the list. It took me a while to figure it out, I had to sleep on it. Here is what I was doing wrong. Default settings, wave PCM uncompressed. That part was right because to make a high quallity recording, that's what you want. But the part that I had wrong was, 1125 HZ 64 bit stereo. This is why my recordings had a dull sound to them. The change that I made to the default settings is: wave PCM uncompressed, 96000 HZ 32 bit stereo. That made the diffrence in the way my recordings sounded from then on out! My question now is, can I apply these settings to any audio editing software? John. To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
RE: Speaking of Creative labs...
It also will depend to some extent where the output sound quality is concerned on what you use to listen to it. On a pair of computer speakers or home theater system you may not really hear the difference between sound cards. But if you listen to the output on a proper stereo hifi system the difference in quality may be more evident. -Original Message- From: pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Robert Logue Sent: 30 November 2009 09:17 PM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: Speaking of Creative labs... The real problem people have with Creative cards is poor drivers and software support for low latency multi-track audio and multiple plug-ins for digital audio work stations such as Sonar.. My older Audigy 4 pro sounds quite good and recordings are fantastic. But, asio is a bit dodgy with some soft instrument plug-ins in Sonar. I have not had experience with the X-FI cards yet. They should be just fine for basic stereo recording and surround playback. But, if you are a musician or media producer, you would be better off with more professional gear. I wish it was easy to compare the sound of different audio devices.

Hi. From the many experts and audio buffs I have talked to Creative seems to be pretty low-end. Does anybody have reccomendations for a sound card that is inexpensive and superior quality to Creative. I think people just buy creative because of the name. Similar to Bowes.
