| The World's first soundcard custom-engineered around the X-Fi chipset .
The Auzen X-FI™ Prelude 7.1 soundcard marks the first time Creative has permitted a third-party soundcard vendor to use the Creative X-FI™ chipset in its own soundcard design. The Auzen X-Fi Prelude 7.1 soundcard fully supports EAX 5.0 and has expandability similar to that of the Auzen X-Meridian™ 7.1. Additional features such as Dolby® Digital Live, DTS® Interactive, and DTS NeoPC™ are available via driver updates according to the "Features Coming Soon" schedule (right).
Now with Dolby® Digital Live!
EAX®
Take advantage of the latest EAX® sound card technology of Creative Labs. Enjoy a 3D soundscape during gameplay. Bullets whiz past your head. Explosions shake the room. Take your games to the next level with EAX® ADVANCED HD™ sound effects, available in Vista via OpenAL.
Dolby® Digital Live
Available via the latest free driver update.
Enjoy audio from your PC or game console through your home theater with Dolby® Digital Live. A real-time encoding technology, Dolby Digital Live converts any audio signal into a Dolby Digital bitstream for transport and playback through a home theater system. With it, your PC or game console can be hooked up to your Dolby Digital-equipped audio/video receiver or digital speaker system via a single digital connection, eliminating the confusion of multiple cables and ensuring the integrity of the audio signal.
Note: The following Dolby® technologies will not be supported on the X-Fi Prelude 7.1 due to feature overlap: Dolby® Pro Logic® IIX, Dolby® Virtual Speaker, and Dolby® Headphone.
Why X-Fi® ?
- The speed you need: Powerful audio processing engine boosts real game performance by more than 15% over ordinary motherboard audio.
- Hear your enemies before they find you: Slip on your headphones or put your multichannel speakers to work for you with positional audio that's so accurate you can locate enemies by sound.
- Revitalize compressed audio: X-Fi Crystalizer technology restores the detail and vibrance to your compressed music and movies. In games, X-Fi Crystalizer makes gunshots sound crisp and sharp and explosions really boom for the most intense gaming experience yet. All the highs and lows are intelligently enhanced so you'll hear everything in crystal clarity.
- Turn stereo music and movies into surround sound: X-Fi CMSS-3D technology expands your stereo MP3s and digital movies into surround sound over multichannel speakers, stereo speakers or even headphones. Voices are centered in front of you and ambient sounds are moved all around you.
- Enjoy clearer voice chat: Talk it up and hear the difference X-Fi makes. Every voice comes through loud and clear.
