Sound Blaster Live! is the top audio solution for seamless integration into the computer for novices and advanced users in gaming, professional music recording and playback, Internet audio, and DVD/Video playback. At the heart of Sound Blaster Live! is the EMU10K1X audio processor chip. Sound Blaster Live! supports surround-sound audio on the computer with built-in support for two, four or six (5.1) speakers. With up to 6 channels of SPDIF output, users would now be able to experience 3D audio with multiple speaker systems. With Sound Blaster Live!, you can apply EAX™ effects to existing games and applications for incredibly true sound.
Sound Blaster Live! is now capable of producing more than 1000 voices. This remarkable capability goes beyond the quality and performance available in most professional music equipment. With additional voices, Sound Blaster Live! delivers richer MIDI playback, simultaneous playback of more instrument notes and multi-layering of instruments to create better quality sound.
With EAX Audio Technologies, Creative has made it easier for any developer who wants to incorporate high-quality 3D audio environments into their titles.
