If you can use an oss mixer (ala aumix) VOL controls the front channel, OGAIN controls the real channel and PCM controls "Master" Also the bass and treble controls should work. If I'm not mistaken IGAIN controls the center level..but I'm running a fourpoint system atm so I could be wrong. There are also some things you can set using the emu10k1-tools, like whether or not to use the spdif out or the normal outs, turn on/off a livedrive, etc. > > Darren > ======================================== > How far is it from time to time ? >
