Audio Program

Hi!
I wonder if there is any program where I can adjust my audio settings. I got a 5.1 sorround system and I dont get all 5 satellites to work. I can get 2 of them to work. And the other 3 are playing the music very low.

My soundcard: Realtek ac97 integrated on my motherboard

Please help me!

well music doesnt play in 5.1 unless it has been encoded to, so there should be a button on your speakers to set it for "music" or pro logic II or some kind of dual stereo so it playes the music in stereo channel, but from both front and rear channels...

I had the same problem for a while. With the movies, you probably have to enable 5.1 audio in whatever you're using to play. I use PowerDVD and had to go to configuration, then the Audio tab and use "A3D/DirectSound 3D." You also have to enable 5.1 audio in your audio control panel from Windows. Depending on your drivers (I'm using nVidia's nVMixer) it's usually pretty simple.

I haven't quite figured it out for Winamp yet, either. There's got to be a way, since Winamp v5.1 was made for 5.1 speaker systems. I'll do a little looking. The only way I've found to make it play stereo in both front and back speakers is changing the surround settings in nVmixer to "clone." Since you don't have an nVidia-based board, you've probably got to do it somewhere else. Maybe in Winamp.

You've got to install it and then enable it.

Go to preferences in Winamp (Ctrl+P) and then on the left go to output (under plug-ins). Then on the right select AndrewLabs ATSurround Processor and click Configure.

From there you'll set up how you want your speakers to sound. Play with the sliders and you'll notice differences.

I know that in my Audigy2 card, you just enable CMMS and it mirrors the back and front speakers. Even if I didn't have that, my Logitech z5500 speakers can be set to do that too.
