Hi peeps.
Just looking for some quick advice about a new soundcard.
I'm looking at getting something like the M-Audio Audiophile 2496.
This is to replace a SB Live! Value.
Does this seem like a sensible (though cheap) move? I'm expecting a
better card.
Make sure the tone control switch is muted. It's not enough to set bass
and treble to 0, you have to disable the switch.
I am working on improving the emu10k1 driver. But, the Audiophile is
certainly a better card. You get what you pay for, and the SBLive value
is pretty amazing for a $20 soundcard but it's still a $20 soundcard.
