Lol - forgot to warn you about that - the drivers are VERY
configurable. You can basically route the signal path however you want and
end up with some weird effects.



Don't worry though, config is quite simple (If I can remember which
setting!!!) - If you're not seeing all the channels - try this:



Go to the kX DSP, right click on Surrounder - presets - then I THINK it's
7.1 Direct Path you need to select.



Have a play and see if this gives you the 4th pair?



Paul.

That's a very good question. There are definately only 3 analog
line out plugs on the card and with the KX driver you get 3 stereo
pairs.

But the card says it is 5.1, 6.1 or 7.1. The instructions show
that for 7.1 you need a special cable and that:

- Line 1 Out does front right and left
- Line 2 Out does rear right, rear right AND side right
- Line 3 Out does centre, sub AND side left

As each plug seems to be a regular stereo 3.5mm plug, I dont know
how the side channels work!

However it does 7.1 I'm pretty sure you only get 3 stereo with KX
(I've not heard anyone say they get 4).

Regards

Richard
