Just installed Kx

gonz0 · Oct 21, 2004, 07:13 AM

I just got Kx installed, got my mic working with Teamspeak and ventrilo working correctly, by using the fix mentioned by dj_stick, but I have a new problem. Now that i have the KX drivers installed my clanmates say that i have a fuzzy background noise now, that i have gotten rid of the creative drivers. Any ideas on how to fix this? Or has answer? Thanks for any help you can give in advance

I have an Audigy 2 ZS.

Unused analog ins open in AC97 page? Mute them. Lower the input level of the Mic. Say more about the noise or post a record of it

use an expander in chain - someone used this and it reduced the noise greatly

could you elaborate plz stick?

in the DSP add an expander module between the ac97 points of the prolog and the epilog's recl/r

Well, after tweaking a ton of stuff, I got the background noise down quite a bit. I disabled the +20db gain, and adjusted the output the max. Still can hear it in the background. I think it might be fan interference, maybe it just wasn't audible with creative drivers?

Also i couldnt find the expander module you were talking about, which branch is it under?

under the APS sub-menu
