how many tracks can simultaneously record

sburst · Nov 27, 2007, 04:52 AM

Hello
Just one question please, with the kx drivers, how many analog tracks can one simultaneously record on Audigy platinium (with card and External 'break out box') or Audigy 2 ZS platinium (with card and External 'break out box') or Audigy 2 platinium (with card and External 'break out box').

I use a soundblaster live 5.1 (model sb0060) since 4 or 5 years with kx drivers, but now i try buy a Audigy card for multirack record (at least 4 tracks).

Thanks

8 mono/4 stereo i think, line in/aux in on the card and line 2/aux2 on the breakout box

Audigy 1 SB0090 gives you up to 14 independent input sources on the card, Audigy 2 full series (not Value) gives you up to 12 independent input sources. I don´t know whether the breakout box supports all physical available inputs - I ´ve had so solder one for myself ;-)

Hey TravelRec... the OP specified ANALOG....

An A2ZS Platinum (w/ breakout box) I can record:
AC97 1/2 (Line and Aux/CD) - thats 4 mono / 2 stereo ANALOG.

Then the LiveDriveII (breakout box) has AUX2 and Line 2 - thats 4 more mono / 2 stereo.

Then I have Digital inputs...
the LDII Coax/Optical - thats 2 more mono
The on-card Digital CD in - another 2 mono.

I have Audigy 2ZS here with some selfmade modules, so:

Line in: 2x mono
AUX in over UDA codec: 2x mono
SPIDF over CD-SPDIF: 2x mono
SPDIF over OPTICAL: 2x mono
A/D-module to I2S codec (Line2): 2 mono
A/D-Module to I2S codec (Aux2): 2 mono

Summary: Same number as you

On Audigy1 you have one more SPIDF input on AUD_EXT connector.
