Santa Cruz Sound Card Drivers3/13/2021
I was wondering on how A3d compares to Sensuras 3d sound Thanks.Depending on how soon you want to upgrade.you can wait and see what happens with mine.
There will probably be no new A3D games and on that basis, Im delighted with my new card as the sound in Deus Ex, first game Ive played with it) is much, much better than on my MX300. My only problem, i think i didnt cleanly uninstall my PCI512 drivers, I cant get 3d sound in Q3 arena. I installed some beta A3D drivers I found, but they would play for a bit, then randomly blue screen the system. Or is there something different about these other cards that lets them somehow do A3D. Why is the Santa Cruz better than a sound blaster well, I am a little biased here several reasons. Creative said at one time they dont support the Athlon processor if you called them up and asked them why the card didnt work. I dont know if they are still doing this. Creative is a shitty company to begin with that has never inovated in there life. And after hearing A3D 2.0 in action, it blows away the ambient effects (NOT positional audio) of EAX. Santa Cruz Sound Card Software Engineers BeingI have never owned a piece of hardware that I actually loathed before the Live Add to the mix the Creative software engineers being totally unwilling (or unable) to address a number of glaring flaws in the Win2k (as well as ME) drivers. In that light, the Santa Cruz.comparable hardware to the Vortex 2, 6 speaker output (didnt Creative just dump on Live 5.1 owners), and maturing drivers, is looking pretty dang attractive. The Live DOES NOT do A3D 1.0 The Santa Cruz does Sensaura, Directsound 3d, A3d 1.0, EAX 1.02.0, and IA3D. The Live only does directsound 3d, and EAX. The MP3 5.1 and the Platinum 5.1 are the only ones that can be compared to the Santa cruz, because they are the only ones with 6 channel sound. The MP3 5.1 is about the same price as the Santa Cruz. SO EAT A BAG OF HELL View image: infopopemoticonsiconeek.gif. It sounds like the support is mostly via a wrapper, but it is still support. Compared to my MX300, thats one of its best features (apart from the six channel support, Sensaura and general all round great sound).
