    Multi-monitor taskbar


    Sounds good, sucks not having access to the EQ most of all. Feels like here have a nerfed Lamborghini, *sigh

  2. Without having separate bass and tremble controls for the headphone setting at least it can be Royal "H" not being able to suit the particular tracks you may decide to be listening to as well as any for movies, dvd playback, video files, etc. where you have to tweak things a bit. I notice even when changing speaker settings while having 5.1 speakers here the sound improves for Steam titles when going to the 4 speaker setting and for music even the 7.1 at times compared to the headphone and 5.1 settings!

    The original panel not the tabbed popup of course featured everything rolled up together with the Crystalizer as well as the equalizer and mixer while the EAX effects tab is still present due a separate update Creative came up with for the X-Fi series cards for 8.1 x64 that will work on 10 x64 as well.

    One question I forgot to ask earlier was in regards to which Creative model, model series card are you running there? Here I was finding updates for every PCI and PCIe card except for the Xtreme Audio PCI and PCIe model cards until I got on the Creative forums and found there are "unofficial" updates to be found there including the SB X-FI Xtreme Audio PCIe /Notebook "Support Pack 1.2" that will work for 10/8.1/8/7/Vista/XP all rolled up into one bundle. SB X-Fi Xtreme Audio PCIe / Notebook Support Pack 1.0 (07/19/2015) for Win 10 / 8.1 / 8 / 7 / Vista / XP

    Now due to "Google-litis" as to how someone there shared the driver/app bundle the click on the Google drive link won't bring you directly to the download page but another "mess you up" page until you can navigate to the actual download page itself. The download was found to be "Bug free" so no worry about the "Google Drive can' scan this file for viruses" line on the page seen at Google Drive - Virus scan warning

    The Sound Blaster folder as well as Volume panel folder were included and installed promptly! I still have to reboot to follow up on this while I did want to get those links added in before tending to that. The other thread found applied to the Xtreme Gamer, Titanium, and other models all except the Xtreme Audio.

    The Entertainment folder was the main interest here once the updated set went on. Otherwise you lose out on the equalizer just having the Audio Control Panel only to work with!

    Guess things would be a bit easier if I just listed the specs of my rig and sound.

    Thernaltake Level 10 GT case
    Xion 1000w PSU
    Asus Crosshair V Formula
    AMD FX-8120 Zambezi 3.1GHz 8 core black edition
    Thermaltake Water 2.0 Pro
    32 GB G.Skill RipJaws (4x8GB) DDR3 2133
    SLI (2) EVGA GTX 970 FTW
    Creative Sound Blaster X-FI Titanium HD
    3 - 2TB Seagate ST2000DX001 Hybrid Drives
    Microsoft LifeCam Cinema
    2- 21.5 Asus VE228H Monitors
    Creative Sound Blaster X-FI Titanium HD
    Harman/Kardon AVR7200 7.1
    Alesis elevate6 studio monitors
    Klipsch SW12 "subwoofer

    right now I'm subjected to just using the bass and treble on the receiver and to be frank, It's not cutting it at all.
    I'll take a look at the link ya provided tomorrow after work, and see if there's something that works. Have to scot of to bed right now, as I'm not happy about that 5am work thing. :|

  4. Multi-monitor taskbar

    That link was strictly for the Xtreme Audio cards and nothing else since Creative seems to have made that series isolated from the rest originally for some unknown reason. The Titanium update will also apply to the Xtreme Gamer which makes no sense since you could previously see the update for the Gamer used on the Audio line as well having the exact same audio chip which is where this other "Unofficial" update not seen on the Creative support site even as a beta release may never come out! Or some testers are posting what they have found works.

    For your card there you will be interesed in another thread posted on the forums there that covers all of the Titanium models found at SB X-Fi Series Support Pack 3.8 (10/22/2015) - Updated X-Fi PCI / Titanium PCI-E drivers

    When clicking on the "Google Drive" link you end up staring at two buttons one being the Download that brings you to the page with the Download anyway button showing the exact same Google can't scan message. The installation goes fast and follows everything to the detail with the web updater tool finding you then have the latest installed as that runs at the end.

    The only urk so far it keeps opening up to the small blank rectangle with volume control only under the two Audio Control Panel and Entertainment options even after selecting the Entertainment while in 7 it always opened up to the Entertainment! It's like 10 forget things while 7 would remember how things were closed. The equalizer is working well for sure! *Biggrin
