you can use EAX on other sound cards

What it is
----------
This is a program I made that I called Velbac. It is used to send audio from a Creative soundcard to another soundcard.
Supported source sound cards
-------------------------------
The Creative soundcard can be any of them that support "what you hear" through ASIO. I think that the only exception is a Sound Blaster Live 24-bit because it uses a different architecture. It will work with SoundBlaster Live!, Audigy, Audigy 2 and X-Fi.
Why use it
-----------
One use of this program is to get EAX support on a soundcard that does not support it. To do that, you :
- Configure the default audio playback device of Windows to the Creative sound card.
- Use Velbac to send the audio from the Creative sound card to another sound card.
This way, you can have EAX support and send to a card that has higher quality outputs or hardware AC3 encoding.
The drawback is some added audio latency.
