RE: Soundcard drivers - multi zone with one card!!!

["Nikola Kasic" <nikola@xxxxxxx>]

Paul,
Do you know if it's possible to separate even further to have 8 separate
channels/sound cards.
I have mono speakers in each room which I planned to use for announcements,
so no need for stereo.
Cheers,
Nik

This is an extract from the kX Project docs:

Note that the Emu10kX is capable of 4 stereo digital outputs (yes, the
original Live!, and even the 512 PCI, are all 7.1 cards). In order to take
advantage of this fact without using a LiveDrive one can use the
"AUD_EXT"
connectors found on most 10kx cards (although some special knowledge and
experience is generally required) .

Paul.

Paul,

Glad you got it sorted. I must admit to not following sound cards - have
you
got 7.1-surround versions to get the 8 channels, or have I missed something
?

Thanks,

Tim H.
