  1. After looking through several CD-ROMs, I guess I finallly found the best version of the Soundblaster 16 driver for DOS, Windows 3.1 or Windows 95. Here it is installing on my 25MHz COMPAQ Deskpro 386. 😉

  5. Is this one of those "Soundblaster or 100% compatible" devices the cool kids are always talking about?

  9. Does this ever happen to you? You dig through some boxes and you find out that one of your PCI sound blasters was pregnant and now you have two?

    You can see the family resemblance, she has her mom's SoC but her dad's passives.

  10. Good morning. I am waking up to find some MIDI issue in one of my 86Box machines. It seems 86Box broke or changed something with a recent code update.

    Took me a few minutes to figure this out. The Soundblaster 16 is now set to an MPU-401 address of 0x300, while 0x330 is still being used by the Roland MT-32 emulation. Windows 3.1 is satisfied using the 0x300 address after I changed its settings to use it, while DOS games like "The Secret of Monkey Island" are still working fine with the MT-32 music emulation. Before that, I had simply turned off the SB16's MIDI address altogether. Oh, well... maybe this new setting really does make more sense. 😉

    Happy retro gaming, everybody!

  12. Update: Added an internal amplifier and speakers. Need to figure out how to clean this wiring mess up, then 3D print some panels.

    A REAL SoundBlaster AWE64 in a briefcase. With 28MB RAM expansion. Designed for Cubic Player. Running FreeDOS. Vortex86 CPU / 512MB RAM. Battery powered, basically a laptop you'd never take to an airport 😆

  22. #FotoVorschlag 'Qualität' – diese EISA-Soundkarte Soundblaster CT2950 mit einem Yamaha-Synthesizer DB50XG als Zusatz-Platine scheint von guter Qualität gewesen zu sein, denn auf eBay wurde sie mir damals für einen guten Preis quasi aus der Hand gerissen.

  28. Siemaaaaano!! Nowy film na kanale właśnie się pokazał! Tym razem firma Creative dostarczyła mi genialny model zewnętrznej karty dźwiękowej - #SoundBlaster #X5 - zobaczcie sami co mam do powiedzenia w temacie tego cudeńka: www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjtU... To co, widzimy się w komentarzach?

  29. Sound Blaster is back with a twist: Re:Imagine, a modular audio hub on Kickstarter! Think magnetic modules, an AI DJ, and a DOS emulator, all running on Linux. Devs can even build their own apps.

    Is this the future of audio, or just a really cool throwback?

  32. In case anyone is struggling getting the "Line In" on their #SoundBlaster #Audigy 5 card to work for recording, I figured out how to bypass the garbage "creative control panel" which doesn't seems to acknowledge that the card actually even has a "Line In" jack.

    Long story short: Disable the "What you hear" recording device in the classic "Windows 7 style" sound control panel (mmsys.cpl) and "Line in" might just magically stop being "Currently Unavailable".

    The Audigy 5 arguably has the worst software package I have ever seen on a Creative product.
