Something about Soundblasters...

Seems that one thing is missed ...

SoundBlasterLive!5.1 is 16-bit,48kHz

Soundblaster AudigyLS is 24-bit,96kHz

Soundblaster Audigy4 is 24-bit,192kHz

@beingalien

What do you means ??

@beingalien

o_O

...aaaaand your point being?

@beingalien
The only thing missing is good sound which you can't get out of any SB product.

@ssolie
Totally agreeded I have some crappy sound with my Soundblaster 128.
Has anybody some ideas?
I am totally stuck with this thing!

Amiga One G3 PPC 800 Mhz
Does your mobo have the SigmaTel chip/ aka AC-97 sound?
I don't know about A1-G3s, but the AC-97 system and the SB-128 are about equally excellent (to me) on sound quality on the A1-XE/G4.
...I have some crappy sound with my Soundblaster 128...
This kind of doesn't determine the problem =:o
Can you describe a sound effect that annoys you listening?

@Snuffy

I'm pretty sure he means that the jump to 32 bit never occurred. I expect better from former E-mu engineers...

Pffft. My AWE64 (with the SPDIF hookup from Hoontech) sounds perfectly fine. Even back in the days of the AWE32/64, those Emu-8000 DSP's could mix 30 channels stereo with reverb and chorus.

Though, my Gravis Ultrasound PNP (AMD interwave chip, 32 channels hardware) is still my favorite.

@Snuffy
Yeah I think I have AC'97 sound installed on my A1.
As for a sound that annoys me for example a bad played
song on AmigaAMP or the bad music and sound of SCUMM.
A "hello" may sound like: h?$%ee&)=?llooo546456oooo
All mixed and very confusing.
Hope this helps.
Good luck you have with your Amiga One G4/933 Mhz

Hi@MamePPCA1
Yeah I think I have AC'97 sound installed on my A1.
"I think " ?
You have the chip or you don't have the SigmaTel chip ? Y/N only, please.
If you have the same results using AC'97, then you may have some serious bus noise, OR you external hookup is leaking in noise. You have to 'unplug & play' this game! How about sending it Amiga Center for repair if can't figure it out!

@MamePPCA1

I was fed up of the audio output from my SB Live!, plus it had an uncanny ability to freeze my system. So I ditched it for a Terratec 512i - never looked back.
