Developer’s Description

By Creative Technology
Update Windows drivers and firmware for your Sound Blaster Extigy.
The package will update Sound Blaster Extigy Drivers (to version 5.12.01.0038); Sound Blaster Extigy Firmware (to version 1.1.020507); Creative Audio Mixer (to version 2.01.15); and reactive diagnostics (to version 2.20.14). The update fixes Cakewalk SONAR 1.3.1 (trial version) detection of Sound Blaster Extigy as a monaural device; the wave volume level changing to the default level after forwarding, rewinding, or muting the track in audio; and the mixer while playing back AC3 files. Also, now the EAX On/Off button in PlayCenter responds correctly to remote control; the fader and center speaker volume in Audio Mixer is accessible after headphones are disconnected; updating drivers in Windows XP no longer requires a system restart; the speaker configuration setting is saved after the restart; and 3D audio processing is improved.

Added features include compressed AC3 pass-through for output to an external decoder; added bass management configuration; improved sample rate conversion engine to allow playback of 24-bit/96KHz files through the 16-bit/48KHz engine; added firmware version information in the Audio Control; and added DirectSound Voice Management in WinXP. Firmware version 1.1.020507 adds AC3 pass-through; bass management configuration; improved CMSS playback quality; and improved device recognition on system start-up.
