Just asking is there any bug that the DSP doesn't seem to be applied even KXmixer is loaded, but the DSP is loaded only when the KXmixer taskbar icon is clicked to bring up the GUI?

I sort of felt something like that but it may be placebo.

No, the GUI does not need to be opened for the DSP effects to be applied.

Does the latest KX drivers support the newest SB Audigy 2 ZS or SB live (24bit) ? I read something on the KX pages that the Audigy2 ZS are not supported, yet. I am not sure if the information is still valid. Other thing is that I've got information that the new SB live 24 bit is not based on the EMU 10 k.. something like that.

Thank you for advice
Best Regards

Audigy 2 ZS is supported, SB Live => look at other threads

Hi!


Thanks for the 3538H version, works great!

Only thing is: the volume updating bug isn't fixed. It's very irritating, that when you for example mute the volume with use of a multimediakeyboard, it mutes the Master Volume (of course), but doesn't update the status in the register correctly (someone figured that out in another thread). If you mute the mastervol and then for example start internetexplorer and visit a website, the mute is reset to play again, but without updating the status on kxmixer (systray) and the speakericon of windows (systray). This happens with most apps using sounds and thus resetting whatever kxmixer set the mastervolume to.

I hope it can be resolved soon, as this is (for me) the only one really annoying bug...


Thanks again for all your hard work, keep it up !

I have a suggestion to improve the driver for the next release. I don't know how easy it is to do. It would be great if Eugene can implement it in the 3538i release.

Here is what happen :
If the mixer gui is not in the task bar, you doubleclick on the icon in the system tray and the mixer appears on top of all the other windows and it is put in the task bar. That's ok.
If the mixer gui is in the task bar and maximised but not on top of the other windows, if you doubleclick on the icon on the system tray, the mixer gui will get on top of the other windows. That's ok too.
If the mixer gui is in the task bar but minimised, if you doubleclick on the icon in the system tray, nothing happens. The mixer gui stays minimized.

What I would like is for the mixer gui to get maximised and put on top of the other windows when you doubleclick on the system tray icon when it is minimised.

That applies to all the windows of the driver that can be opened from the tray icon (Mixer, DSP, Router, Editor, Automation, remote, soundfont, plugin settings windows).

It would be great. I often found myself clicking on the DSP menu and doubleclicking on plugins settings and nothing happened because the windows were already opened but minimized.

I get Bluescreen sometimes when I change the volume

The BSOD says there might be a problem with the file kx.sys

Should I reinstall or use another(earlier) version?

Thanks

Hi all,
I have exactly the same problem : from times to times, but only when playback a big project in Cubase (I never get BSOD when Cubase is idle).
I thought, it was due to a hardware problem because It never happenned before I upgrade.
Anyway, it's very rare.

There is a bug with the mixer. If I mute the sound, it displays inF. That's correct.

If I close the mixer by clicking on the X and reopen the mixer, the volume is displayed instead of inF. The sound is still muted so it should display inF.

When I log into Win 98, I hear the Startup music but once the KX icon/driver appears in the system tray, I lose all sounds under windows.

I would like to try not loading the icon/driver... Is there an easy way to avoid loading the icon/driver as it seems it may be a compatibility problem of some kind (where under Regedit do I have to remove a key?)

I got all sounds to work once when the driver didn't finish loading in the system tray

Thanks a lot for making this Audigy card work under Win 98 as Creative Labs seems to not want support there own product. My guess is they don't make enough money

Hi guys, since i didn't like to copy manually the files of the 3538h update i made a self-extracting archive that does the job for me.
If anybody wants to download it a try here u can download from my web site:

http://www.radiocolonel.it/files/kx3538h.exe


i hope somebody finds it useful.

So far 3538h has been rock solid in my machine... I use it live and never had a problem...

dj_stick

does that include the self extracted files from C and G?

This contains only the files (kx.sys, kxmixer.exe, kxapi.dll, kxasio.dll) present in the
3538h.rar update. Since it was necessary copy them manually in the folder \system32\ and than the kx.sys in a subfolder called \drivers\ i made this self extracting archive that copies them for me so i don't mess up things in those folders. I used it lots of time and is fine, it does not do bad things!

what happens if i have i installed and i want to revert to h?

Russ

Then you will need to uninstall 3538i, and then reinstall 3538c -> 3538g -> 3538h.

Hi! I have an Live Value (actually is a Live! DF80) and i tried the new Kx drivers. I need them specially for the Asio support (i need to use guitar rig) but i haven't been able to make them work.. Neither the other version (3538i) ... Is it from me or the drivers doesnt' work with this program.. With the old 3537 the asio worked well, but i had a problem with them and i won't put them back... so i can't get sound from the line in in the guitar rig (in ap tuner i have sound)i tried bunch sort of things, but i hadn't much succes ... what's wrong// can anyone help?? thanks

adi111p

yep, this might help you:

install ASIO4ALL. Configure KX ASIO to your desired needs. Configure ASIO4ALL. Use ASIO4ALL as the ASIO driver not KX, this will correct some incorrect uses of ASIO calls from the software...

drop a note if it works for you this
(I use it this way for playback with the i version and works flawlessly)
P.S. don't use the h version for ASIO

Proof_ro

Adi111p thank you for the help. I tried before i wrote the post with the Asio4all. I knew about the program. THe problem is that i had a good driver, and the asio4all worked. but i came home after and it didn't worked.. i think it is from my sound card drivers... i think it could help me, if u would say what version of drivers do u use.. (if u have a sb live) i tried 5-6 drivers. Now i installed the 3537 and when i want to select the asio support the computer restarts. I think i'll have to reinstall the windows, when i'll have time.. Thanks for ur answer.

I have a question that I have seen asked several times on different forums, but in the end no one really comes up with an answer. I was hoping that someone might have tested if there is a way you can get the A2V card to accept digital input. Most A2V ads say that this card will accept S/PDIF input but then hides that it requires an add-on bracket or module to accept digital input. But only the UK still seems to sell these units. I didn't read about the add-on module until after I got the card.

I am still attempting to go from a Tascam recorder's coxial digital (24-bit 44.1)out into the miniplug on the A2V's digital I/O port. That required a cheap RCA mono to miniplug adaptor. I tried this approach with both the Creative and the KX 3538i drivers several times and no sound came through the sound card no matter how KX was configured. So definitely this Creative phantom-product must be required to do something with the signal.

Is there a fairly cheap way to get the A2V to accept digital without having to replace it? I know I can use something like a Yamaha UW10 USB interface or Audiophile 2496 for about $100 USD, but thought that I might be overlooking something and be able to salvage the card.

Any information would definitely be appreciated.

Thanks,
Stan

AFAIK - you HAVE to connect to the AUD_EXT connector on the card - OR use CD-SPDIF - but cable lengths start becomming a problem.

USE RCA connectors intended for video - I use one that ~20' long (24bit/44khz) regularly. But I connect that to the Drive Bay IO SPDIF IN. BUT - I beleive the Drive bay IO conditions this signal before its sent to A2 card. Im thinking signal levels are different.
