How could be possible !(Front Out with Cleared DSP)

Valenzulu · Mar 8, 2006, 04:41 PM

Hi to All

Recently I was testing the SB! Live outputs with speakerphones , trying to note by ear , how different those outputs are.

I have a Nord Electro Keyboard connected to the line-in through a mackie mixer.

I cleared the DSP window (What I Thought means, NO SOUND, no signals transit)

The funny thing is That I could still perfectly hear my keyboard s trough the speakerphones connected to the Front Output ??

Is this due to a phisical conection, or I´m allucinating

BONUS QUESTION : Do You think if there´s some significant difference if I record the Keyboard directly to ASIO, Through ADC, or passing through a MX6 ?. I Always have some problemes with the relative gains of different rec sources I use.

Sorry for some english glitches.

That's normal behavior. Once you load the output plugin (epilog, etc) and nothing is connected to it, it will go silent.

There is transparent microcode with a very basic DSP routing until the kX mixer is loaded with a DSP preset - that's why you hear the startup sound, even before kX has loaded

On SB Live there is analog connection between line-in and line-out through AC97 mixer. It will work without DSP. I think you can use AC97 panel in kX mixer to control this connection.

Also - Audigy w/ P16V - playing out WAVE HQ AND 24/96 router has 'P16V -> I2S' connection enabled - you will hear the P16V > I2S (24/96 playback).
