Creative Labs Internal Sound Boards

I got the sound card to record about 20 audio tracks but would have been with a stable 16, but it did handle 20 tracks of audio in cubase with a latency setting of 10ms. 5.1 EAX with good quality effects, nice gold plated inputs easy to use control panel software. The live drive is great and has all the features to would expect from a dedicated pro audio card. I had to spend 2 days just getting my PC to except the drivers I had all sorts of problems and had to format my HD to get it to work ok and even then It only seemed stable with win 98se but this could have been a isue with my Via chip set and the creative live player software. Price paid £150 UTILIZATION Easy , Easy ,Easy! The mixer controls are nice and all is at easy reach to change settings. GETTING STARTED The card is built well, sound is great, audigy drive is well built and even has a remote controll. There are issues with installing this card which other wise is great value. OVERALL OPINION What I put in was what I got out it was as simple as that, I had not drop in quality at all and no drop in recording level on recording. I had the SB Live card before and this Audigy card has far better audio quality . Top marks for the recording sound quality. The sound chip is ok if you have nothink at all and when used with the creatives reverb and effect they come to life so much more. Havent had it long enougth yet but im sure if this card keep working as hard as it is now im sure to love this card! Originally posted on FutureProducers.com Posted by: Unknown ( 5-, 2002)
