Playing Games

Your Sound Blaster Audigy Fx is specially designed to enhance audio in games using Creative's cutting

edge audio technologies. Playing games will be more exhilarating than ever before!

To learn more about the following audio technologies, visit www.soundblaster.com.

EAXADVANCEDHD

Make your games come alive with EAX

ADVANCEDHD™ and immerse yourself in worlds that their

creators envisioned!

Hear multiple audio effects being played simultaneously, and precise environment settings applied to

them to create a life-like environment and heighten the sense of realism.

Each effect is also accurately positioned in its 3D environment, allowing you to tell where it is coming

from relative to your location, and you will be able to discern where your teammates and enemies are

using only these audio cues.

EAXADVANCEDHDis a weapon that will give you the competitive edge, especially in multiplayer

games.

Creative ALchemy

Creative ALchemy is a powerful tool that restores the audio for a DirectSound

3D game running on

Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8 to its former glory - in full surround sound with hardware

accelerated audio mixing, sampling rate conversion and EAX effects.

To learn how to connect your A/V receiver to your audio card, consult Connecting Home Theater

Systems.

Watching DVDs

Your DVDs are encoded with Dolby Digital audio technologies, which have to be decoded to enjoy multi-

channel audio on your 5.1 speaker systems.

You can use a software DVD player to decode Dolby Digital or DTSencoded signals from your DVDs, and

output multi-channel audio through your audio card to your speakers.

To do so, you need to install a software DVD player such as PowerDVD or WinDVD (latest version

recommended).
