>If I insert an effect like reverb ... garbled

That just shows general weakness of PCMCIA bus (effects like reverb use main pc ram and load the bus with another transfers)

Wow, I didn't know that. I have no such problems with my super cheap laptop. I assume that this is done with DMA transfers?

Laptop is a P3 1.2G with 256 Ram. So I guess I won't be able to use effects in the audio input chain?

it is not about gigahertzs or megabytes - it is about PCMCIA bus.

Only DSP effects that use xTRAM would be a problem, as xTRAM is implemented in host memory. Other DSP effects should be OK.

I have a Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo Pro v2035 (1.6ghz, 512mb ram ddr2).i`m willing to buy a ZSNB but the only ones i found in my city are the 24bit models.Is the kx driver gonna work on this model?i dont have a great financial status so i dont wanna risk buying one and not be able to use it like i am using the sb live on my desktop.The only i thing i need is the outputs to work (asigning each soundcard to whatever output i want) and be able to load an equalizer and 2 or 3 Timbers.Will it work flawlessly ?

Installation procedure works OK

So, there I bought my card today and inserted in Lap, installed KX project program without drivers, replaced kx.sys in install directory, installed, reboot and works.

For me what i need it works super and sound is clear.

Thanks.

does anyone have issues with their music sounding like noise/feedback after playing several mp3s? it occurs randomly, but always at the beginning of a new track. it can only be fixed by rebooting...

Estarriol, I'm sorry, didn't manage to test it, it was all made very quick, so i only worked in DJ Traktor on card, and i've borrowed laptop, but i still have card, so when I get laptop, i'll play with mic then, really sorry

Another thing is that i noticed when I was pre-listening songs in traktor, I've heard some quiet noisy thing, it's sound from HDD, when he kinda loads up song in (for example) player 1 i've heard that sound, it was quiet, but still hearable.
Only thing that i've noticed wrong, all other stuff worked fine that I've needed to work.
Thanks for help.

I have the same problem with the Audigy 2ZS notebook. WinXP pro with kx3539. Reboot seems necessary to get it working again.

Running RMAA 5.5 the frequency response loopback test for 96KHz sample rate, the response drops sharply from 20KHz. Does nayone else have this problem? All other sample rates work fine. The sound is much better than the original drivers.

I think the ZSNB and kx drivers should work. Mine has sound, but don't know whether the other functions work or not.

I think I have the DSP connection right, but the loopback frequency response really looks bad. I would appreciate any pointers.

The MIC and LINE inputs still seem reversed.

Currently my observations are:
1. Different sample rates require different anti-aliasing filters. The Kx driver does not seem to be switching in the filter for 96KHz sampling, and thus the measurements are the same as 48KHz sampling.
2. The Creative driver seems to be having trouble with 24bit 96KHz sampling, but not 24bit 48KHz and 16bit 96KHz sampling. It seems that the output buffer and/or input buffer are not set to suffeciently large size. The Kx driver does not seem to have this problem since there is a vast variety of selection available.

I have xp sp2 and i'm having the same problem,sound is just gone after 10 minutes or so...but the system keeps running as usual.
I tried going back to 3538m,result is almost the same,only it takes longer to happen

we currently do not support native 24/96 mode for Audigy2 zs notebook
that's because the p16v component responsible for 24/96 content has been replaced with p17v, which is not compatible with our driver

BLEEEP ok, very nice bleep.. i like it! so i selected some next tracks.... and there are different bleeps, between 800-2000Hz or SILENCE....... after about 20 times it was suddenly BACK... everything was FINE as before.. so when it happens, i just select some next tracks & its ok
