RE: SoundBlaster Live Optical Add-On - Anyone know of one ?

["Roger" <roger@xxxxxxx>]

Seem to remember that there was a 3rd party daughter board available for
the
SB that gave access to some of the additional I/O - might be worth
searching
for.

I have the the Live Drive module and it has the following connections

SPDIFF  In/Out
Optical  In/Out
Aux 2 In
Line 2/Mic 2 In
Headphones Out
MIDI In/Out
Also infra red, which I don't use.

AFAIK These modules were never available as a seperate unit to the European
market, only in the US.

out)

Is that the LiveDrive module?  I used one of them last year, and it
most
definitely has Optical in and out.  It has loads of other useful
connections
too.
