any chance to change CD volume?

SoundPlaster · Jan 22, 2004, 10:37 PM

I have spent several weeks playing with dsp settings of wonderful kx drivers.

But still can't understand CD playback volume. Whatever I do, only way to change CD volume is master volume slider... I have checked different cd-players and different setups, digital audio enabled/disabled in multimedia properties. Is there any possibility to have a slider that changes only CD volume, not affecting overall volume???
With Creative drivers I had adjustable CD audio and digital volumes in every application and it worked!
Also, I can't see any purpose for Wave/PCM slider in kx mixer! It does not change anything!? Never!

Thank you and sorry about my English!

in 'digital' mode the CD volume is controlled both by Master and 'CD-Audio' volume (this one is found in the Windows Mixer -- sndvol32.exe). if you have your CD connected via digital or analog cable, you -should- be able to change the volume via the corresponding kX sliders (CD-SPDIF or AC97 In) provided you don't use 'digital extraction' (enabled in WinXP by default)

When not using digital extraction I can change CD playback volume (AC97 In slider), but only get sound from front left and right speaker... is it ok?
