• Longevity and complication

  jesus464/13/2010

  Pros

  New interface with lots of options for surround and multiple speakers.

  Cons

  You can not add micophone input in the playback. Lots of annoying setup options that lead only to sound distortion and ecchoes. Over complicated, and buggy. After a video clip finishes playing, you hear an echo residue sound.

  Summary

  Well, I had an old cmi8738 card and driver from 2003, and decided to upgrade to this newer driver. Instalation was easy, without needing to delete the old one, just clicked setup from the decompressed folder. This driver drives your card like a racing engine, on a car with worn tires. It is hard almost impossible to achieve natural sound, it is either a little echoed, or too crisp, you hear sounds you would not hear with an old driver. It extends the capability of the card, but my sound input from the tv card is playback from microphone in jack, and I cannot controll it, can not add and remove sliders, the tools button offers little options. I do not recomend it for the generic plug in and play sound users, while it can be the tool for sounf enthusiasts who haven't got enough havoc in their brains. Try it for yourself, if you wished you had more options from the old CMI 8738. Revert to the old one from device manager, if you are not satisfied. Cheers
